Does Computer-Assisted Femur First THR Improve Musculoskeletal Loading Conditions?

Figure 7

The TS of the different THR-groups. (a) The hrf of the CAS FF group at the different follow-up points can be seen (blue: t0, green: t1, red: t2). The -axis denotes the stance-phase in percent; the -axis shows the hrf in multiples of bodyweight. The dashed line is the TS of the healthy group as gathered during the method verification experiments. (b) Results for the CON group (blue: t0, green: t1, red: t2). (c) Dimensionless walking speed computed according to Hof [38] at different follow-up points is displayed, as well as literature data for THR patients [35] (point-dashed, dark red line).
