Does blood vessel-sparing hip replacement improve recovery?
This study compares two different surgical techniques for total hip replacement using an anterior approach. The goal is to see if saving the small blood vessels around the hip during surgery leads to a better recovery for patients.

Compare two pain block methods for hip replacement surgery
This trial studies whether one type of numbing injection (a PENG block) works better than another method (local anesthetic injected into the surgical area) to control pain during and after total hip replacement. It may help choose the best pain plan for people having a specific surgical approach.
London, OntarioAges 19 years+ - NCT05785364Recruiting
Study of a hip implant used in total hip replacement
This study follows people who get a specific hip socket implant (the Mpact 3D Metal MonoCER) after total hip replacement. It’s mainly to monitor how the device is working in real-world use.
GenevaAges 18–75 - NCT05818891Recruiting
Study of a hip implant for people needing first hip replacement
This trial studies a specific hip implant (from Medacta) for people who need their first total hip replacement. It aims to see how well the implant works and whether patients recover mobility safely.
Dracy-le-FortAges 18–80 - NCT04801680Recruiting
3D metal hip cup for painful hip arthritis
This trial studies a specific type of 3D metal cup used during hip replacement surgery. It aims to see how well it works over time in people who need a first (primary) total hip replacement.
Milan, MIAges 18–75 - NCT02301182Enrolling by invitation
Compare two hip implant types for younger hip arthritis
This trial compares two different hip implant designs in people ages 40–65 with primary hip osteoarthritis. It looks at how well the hip works afterward—especially function and everyday results.
AarhusAges 40–65 - NCT05653687Recruiting
Hip replacement surgery: X-ray guidance versus usual hand placement
This trial compares two ways of guiding hip replacement surgery during the operation. It may help improve how accurately the surgeon places the hip components and how well patients do afterward.
Lugano, Canton TicinoAges 18–90 - NCT07597538Recruiting
How Hip Replacement Changes Knee Position and Function
This study examines whether getting a hip replacement changes how your knee aligns and functions. Researchers will compare knee imaging before and after your surgery to understand this connection.
Asyut, Asyut GovernorateAges Any age - NCT06748885Recruiting
Mpact 3D metal hip replacement study
This trial tests a new 3D-printed metal hip implant for people who need a first-time hip replacement. It aims to see how well the implant works and helps you recover.
NantesAges 18–75 - NCT07378215RecruitingPhase 4
Steroids for better recovery after hip replacement
This study tests whether a single dose of steroids (dexamethasone) given during hip replacement surgery can improve your recovery and quality of life. It may help reduce pain and swelling after the procedure.
Genk, LimburgAges 60 years+ - NCT06903767Enrolling by invitation
Automated vs manual tool study for hip replacement
This trial tests whether an automated surgical tool is better than a manual one for putting in hip replacement parts. If you are having a planned first-time hip replacement and are over 18, you might be able to join.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06956950RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Magnesium Added to Numbing Medicine for Hip Replacement Pain
This study tests whether adding magnesium sulfate to a numbing medicine (bupivacaine) can provide better pain relief after hip replacement surgery. The medicine is given as a shot in the back near the hip muscles.
Tanta, El-GharbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06917365Recruiting
Testing a new liner for SERF hip replacements
This trial is testing a new liner (the inner part) for a specific brand of hip replacement called SERF. It's looking at how well it works in people who need a total hip replacement.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT06831045Recruiting
Bikini vs Straight Incision for Hip Replacement
This study compares two types of skin cuts (a bikini-line incision vs a straight side incision) for total hip replacement through the front of the hip. It is designed for people with a BMI of 30 or higher to see which incision heals better and leads to fewer wound problems.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06807866RecruitingPhase 4
Duloxetine for pain after hip replacement surgery
This trial tests if duloxetine, a medication that helps with nerve pain, can reduce pain after hip replacement surgery. It may help patients who are having a first-time total hip replacement.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06448325Recruiting
Hip replacement fracture risk prediction
This study looks at past hip replacement patients to develop a score that predicts who might have another fracture later. It may help doctors prevent future breaks.
Milan, ItaliaAges 60 years+ - NCT07430228Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Can oxytocin help you recover faster after hip replacement?
This study tests if a medicine called oxytocin, given through a vein during surgery, can help people recover more quickly after a total hip replacement. It is for adults in generally good health who are scheduled for a first-time hip replacement.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18–75 - NCT04350255Recruiting
Study of new cup design during primary hip replacement
This study follows people getting a first-time hip replacement to see how a specific new hip “cup” (socket part) performs in real-world care. It may help improve future hip replacement choices, especially for patients who fit the study’s surgical and follow-up requirements.
Mölndal, Västra Götaland CountyAges 30–75 - NCT05221554Recruiting
Testing a plan for hip replacement surgery timing
This study involves people with hip osteoarthritis who are planning a first total hip replacement. It tests a “pre-op modelling” approach—likely helping plan care around surgery—to see if it improves how patients do.
London, OntarioAges 40 years+ - NCT05547984Recruiting
Ceramic hip implant study for first-time hip replacement
This trial tests a specific type of ceramic “dual mobility” hip implant for people getting their first total hip replacement (cementless). It may help reduce certain hip problems by using a designed implant that’s meant to move more safely.
Ústí nad LabemAges 18 years+ - NCT05658796Recruiting
Program to reduce opioid use after hip or knee replacement
This trial tests a support program called RXWell to help people use less opioid pain medicine after elective hip or knee replacement surgery. It may help by addressing anxiety and depression symptoms that can affect pain and recovery.
Monroeville, PennsylvaniaAges 18–100 - NCT06183528Recruiting
Numbing shot for recovery after hip replacement
This study looks at a special numbing shot around the hip joint to see if it helps people recover faster and feel better after total hip replacement surgery. It may help reduce pain and improve your recovery.
Istanbul, UmraniyeAges 40–85 - NCT07655388Recruiting
Wound healing and dressing changes after hip replacement
This study compares different types of dressings and how often they should be changed after total hip replacement surgery. It aims to find the best way to help the surgical wound heal.
Novi SadAges 65–95 - NCT07432009Recruiting
