Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05649007Recruiting
Monitoring the Saphir hip stem after new hip replacement
This study watches how a specific hip replacement part (the Saphir stem) performs after primary hip surgery in everyday care. It helps doctors and manufacturers learn about safety and outcomes after the device is already in use.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT07481448Recruiting
Long-term study of complex hip replacements
This study follows patients who have had a complex hip replacement to see how they do over time. It may help if your hip surgery was more complicated than usual, such as after prior surgeries, injuries, or certain medical conditions.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges Any age - NCT03304730Recruiting
Tracking pain patterns after low back joint injections
This study follows adults with long-lasting low back pain to learn what predicts who improves after a specific type of back joint injection. It mainly helps doctors understand which factors relate to better or worse outcomes over time.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT03869996Recruiting
Fast-track recovery for knee replacement patients
This trial studies a faster recovery “fast-track” plan for people getting their first total knee replacement for arthritis. It may help by getting you back to movement and normal life sooner, while comparing outcomes against usual care.
BolognaAges 18–78 - NCT04014413Recruiting
Fecal transplant for gut and immune-related conditions
This trial studies whether fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT)—a medical procedure using stool from a screened donor to restore gut bacteria—can improve safety and outcomes for people with certain bowel, immune, and metabolic conditions. It may help if your symptoms are thought to be related to an unhealthy gut microbiome, though eligibility is broad and depends on specific safety factors.
Hong Kong, ShatinAges Any age - NCT04529798Recruiting
Testing outcomes after reverse shoulder replacement with a SMR implant
This study looks at how well a type of shoulder replacement (reverse shoulder arthroplasty) works for people with shoulder arthritis. It may help improve understanding of expected results and safety with a specific stemless implant called SMR.
Basel, Canton of Basel-CityAges 18 years+ - NCT04580225Recruiting
Tested partial wrist fusion with or without bone removal
This study compares two surgical options for certain types of advanced wrist arthritis—one with partial wrist fusion alone, and one with partial wrist fusion plus removal of a small wrist bone. It may help find which approach works better for pain and function after surgery.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–75 - NCT04695028Recruiting
Study to better understand crystal-related joint pain
This study looks at people with certain types of crystal deposits in joints (like gout, CPPD, or hydroxyapatite crystal disease). It uses scans such as ultrasound and a special CT-type scan called DECT to confirm and better understand what’s causing your symptoms.
LommeAges 18 years+ - NCT04729686RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve block during hip replacement for less postoperative pain
This trial tests whether a specific nerve block given during planned hip replacement surgery can reduce pain afterward. It may help you use less opioid pain medicine, but you must meet certain safety and medication criteria.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT04814082Recruiting
Compare two knee implant types for walking and function
This study compares two designs of knee replacement implants to see how they affect walking, function, and outcomes after surgery. You may be randomly assigned to one of the implant types used for your specific, approved knee replacement.
