DePuy Orthopaedics has teamed with actress Jane Kaczmarek to launch an educational program about the disabling effects of osteoarthritis and potential treatment options, according to a DePuy Orthopaedics news release.
The program, titled "The Anatomy of Movement Experience," is a traveling exhibit that stops at health and consumer expos and allows patrons to tour a 30-foot walk-through exhibit of the human leg. Healthcare professionals are also available to speak with people about severe hip and knee pain and patrons can take an osteoarthritis self-assessment quiz and speak with former patients about their experience with joint replacement.
Ms. Kaczmarek spent years with severe hip pain from osteoarthritis before undergoing hip replacement.
