Comparing Two Nerve Blocks for Hip Replacement Pain Relief
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (iliopsoas block and PENG block) to see which one provides better pain relief and recovery after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a hip replacement with spinal anesthesia, you may be a good candidate.

This study looks at whether metal-on-metal hip replacements can affect hearing. It aims to understand if there is a link between these implants and hearing loss.
DelftAges Any age - NCT06580899Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Knee pain pump study for single knee replacement surgery
This study tests whether a small pain pump placed in your knee joint during surgery can help control pain after a single knee replacement. It is for people who are having outpatient knee replacement surgery and have not been taking strong pain medicines recently.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06287021Recruiting
Bone healing after hip replacement with two types of titanium cups
This trial compares how bone grows around two different titanium cups used in hip replacement surgery. It aims to see which cup design leads to better bone remodeling and stability after the procedure.
MilanAges 40–85 - NCT05993845Recruiting
Hip replacement surgery study
This study looks at how doctors plan and perform hip replacement surgery using a special front approach. It may help improve how the surgery is done.
Baden, Canton of AargauAges 18 years+ - NCT05992064Recruiting
Wearable sensors to track recovery after knee replacement
This study uses a small wearable sensor placed on your leg after knee replacement surgery to track your recovery. It helps doctors see how well you are moving and healing, without extra visits to the hospital.
Frederikshavn, North DenmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT05788614Recruiting
Testing shoulder implant movement after reverse shoulder arthroplasty
This study looks at how the shoulder changes position (“reverts”) after a reverse shoulder replacement. It may help doctors better understand what to expect after surgery in people with certain age-related shoulder wear and tear.
Córdoba, CordobaAges 60 years+ - NCT05789784Enrolling by invitation
Using a shoulder-mobility app after shoulder replacement
This trial tests whether the Zimmer Biomet mymobility smartphone app improves outcomes after a reverse total shoulder replacement. It may help by supporting follow-up exercises and tracking progress after surgery.
Palm Beach Gardens, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05721859Recruiting
Study of a hip implant viewing feature during revision surgery
This study checks how well a specific hip implant component (the M‑Vizion femoral component) can be used during revision total hip replacement. It aims to see whether the implant’s intended design works reliably for patients who need hip revision surgery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 21–80 - NCT05314491Recruiting
Follow-up study after knee replacement with a specific implant
This study follows people after they get a total knee replacement using the Multigen Plus system, sometimes with special cone pieces. It looks at how well the implant performs over time and whether results meet expectations.
GuimarãesAges 18 years+ - NCT07107581Enrolling by invitation
Exactech knee replacement follow-up study
This study is following patients who have or will receive an Exactech total knee replacement. It looks at how well the knee works over time and helps doctors understand long-term results.
DeLand, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04884542Recruiting
Testing a knee replacement implant for total knee arthroplasty
This study looks at outcomes after surgery using the Multigen Plus H knee replacement system, sometimes with special add-on parts called AMF TT cones. It may help improve how well these knee implants work and how patients recover after total knee replacement.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT04228419Recruiting
Shoulder replacement approach comparison for advanced shoulder arthritis
This trial compares two ways of doing shoulder arthroplasty (shoulder replacement) for people with advanced shoulder arthritis who have not improved with non-surgical treatments. It may help determine which approach works better for pain and function.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 65 years+ - NCT04294693Recruiting
Study of total joint replacement in children and young adults
This study looks at outcomes after total joint replacement in people ages 10–25 at Children’s Hospital Colorado. It may help doctors better understand which patients do well after surgery (or after trying non-surgical pain treatments first).
Aurora, ColoradoAges 10–25 - NCT05487274Recruiting
Shoulder arthritis surgery plan for specific shoulder bone alignment
This study compares two types of surgery for advanced shoulder osteoarthritis when the shoulder socket is turned backward more than 15 degrees. It aims to see which surgical approach works best for pain and function when the bone alignment issue can be corrected.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 65 years+ - NCT00527839Recruiting
Shoulder replacement patient registry at a single hospital
This is a non-interventional patient registry that follows people having total shoulder replacement. You help researchers by completing questionnaires, which may improve how shoulder replacement care is understood and planned.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07135843Recruiting
Digital home exercise program after hip replacement
This study tests a home-based digital program that encourages physical activity in older adults after hip replacement surgery. It aims to help you stay active and recover better from home.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 65 years+ - NCT07006545Enrolling by invitation
Getting back to activity after knee replacement
This study looks at how well people can return to daily activities and exercise after total knee replacement surgery. It may help find better ways to guide recovery.
Munich, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT04507412RecruitingPhase 4
IV steroid before shoulder surgery to reduce inflammation
This trial studies whether giving dexamethasone through a vein (an anti-inflammatory steroid) around the time of total shoulder replacement surgery improves outcomes. It may help lower inflammation and related discomfort, but you must meet specific health and medication safety criteria to join.
LuganoAges 58–85 - NCT07651215Enrolling by invitation
Short-Stem Shoulder Replacement Surgery Outcomes Study
This study looks at how well a newer type of shoulder replacement surgery works. Researchers are checking X-rays and patient function for people who had this specific short-stem surgery at least 2 years ago.
LinzAges 18 years+ - NCT03511586Recruiting
Registry for patients getting an Arthrex shoulder replacement
This study is a registry that collects information from people who are planning an Arthrex shoulder replacement. It may help doctors improve how shoulder implants are planned and tracked over time.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–100 - NCT06858358Recruiting
Robot vs. standard knee replacement for severe arthritis
This trial compares a robot-assisted knee replacement technique to the standard approach for people with severe knee arthritis. It aims to see which method leads to better recovery and outcomes.
Cluj-Napoca, ClujAges Any age - NCT06447922Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for arthroplasty?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 436 recruiting arthroplasty studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a arthroplasty trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a arthroplasty trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
