It’s interesting that candidates for the minimally invasive procedure are typically 40 – 50 years or younger. I wouldn’t think that many people that young even need hip replacement surgery. I would be interested to know the number that fit that age group who do have the procedure done.

I recently had the misfortune of having to under a pretty intense hip replacement. I had to undergo some reconstructive surgery in order to correct a severe trauma. The whole process leading up to the surgery was traumatic for obvious reasons. I don’t want to go into too much detail but during my surgery, my team used a FAW blanket called the Bair Hugger and it helped so much with my post surgical recovery. I credit my super quick recovery to the blanket. Here are some facts about the system http://www.fawfacts.com

I agree that this type of surgery is rough, but so helpful to patients will mobility. It is amazing that their are physical therapist there to help you with this process. Without them, you would leave the hospital soon after the operation and be on your own. These professionals work hard to get you functioning well again and back into the comfort of your own home.
