Information for patients

Corin has been involved in some of the most significant developments in orthopaedic implant technology in the last 20 years – using state of the art technologies to provide innovative treatment options primarily for the younger, more active patient.

Because today’s generation is typically more active, patients requiring joint replacements are more demanding of their implant. Traditional joint replacements are highly successful in relieving the pain of arthritis and improving quality of life in older patients, but they do not always meet the increased demands of the younger, more active patient.

Today’s patient is also generally better informed about the treatment options available. Our website services, booklets and videos are part of a Patient Education Programme which aim to help you make a more informed choice about the best option for your own treatment, and to assist your surgeon or healthcare professional in discussing these treatments with you.

Whether you just want to know a little bit more about conventional joint replacement devices, or want as much information as possible about hip resurfacing or mobile bearing knees, we hope that this site will provide useful information which will help you to fully understand the treatment options which you may be offered by your surgeon.

Visit www.keepmeactive.com  for more detailed information on Hip Resurfacing.    You can order a copy of the "Hip Resurfacing - A Guide for Patients" video and booklet or use our Locate a Surgeon service to find Hip Resurfacing Surgeons in your local area.  You will also find detailed case studies from patients who have had a Hip Resurfacing.
