GIRFT, BHS and BOA Best Practice for Hip Arthroplasty Surgery Documentation - One page summary

This guidance has been produced by the Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT) programme in partnership with the British Hip Society and is aimed to provide advice on various aspects of surgery which should be available and clearly documented in a hip arthroplasty operation record. The document is not a comprehensive guide to hip surgery, however it is hoped that surgeons will find the advice it offers helpful.
