Zimmer Mini Incision Hip
Replacement
Saint John’s is one of a few hospitals in Indiana to offer
arthritic-hip-pain sufferers a minimally invasive
alternative to traditional hip replacement. The Zimmer Mini
Incision procedure uses specialized instruments and adapted
surgical techniques to implant the same high-quality and
clinically proven hip implants used in traditional hip
replacement. The new technique allows the implant to be
inserted through two 2-inch incisions, rather than the
standard 10- to 12-inch incision. For more information, call
683-4400.
Saint John’s provides comprehensive
occupational and physical therapy for the rehabilitation of
patients with orthopedic problems. Our rehabilitation
services are explained in greater detail within this
directory under "Rehabilitation" and "Bennett Rehabilitation
Center." Technology used to diagnose these problems are
featured in the "Radiology" section. Saint John’s Medical
Supplies provides supplies and equipment for use in
rehabilitation of injuries.
