Recruiting studies
- NCT07227064RecruitingPhase 3
Methadone for pain relief after hip replacement surgery
This study tests whether a single dose of methadone given during hip replacement surgery can better control pain and reduce the need for other opioid painkillers afterward. It may help you recover with less pain and fewer side effects.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18–75 - NCT07153003Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Tramadol and oxycodone vs oxycodone alone for joint pain
This trial tests if taking two pain relievers (tramadol and oxycodone) together works better than oxycodone alone to control pain after knee or hip replacement surgery. It aims to find a more effective way to manage pain with fewer side effects.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05247255Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
Nerve block during hip replacement surgery
This early-stage study tests whether a specific nerve block to numb the lower back area can make total hip replacement surgery more comfortable. It looks at patients who are having planned (elective) hip replacement and whether the nerve block is safe and works well.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04147559Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up for a specific hip replacement stem
This study checks how well a particular hip replacement stem (the PROFEMUR Preserve Classic Femoral Stem) and matching parts keep working over many years. You may be invited if you had that exact hip replacement combination and can return for long-term checkups.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 21 years+ - NCT07598552Recruiting
Brain Function Changes After Same-Day Hip or Knee Surgery
This study checks whether patients who have hip or knee replacement surgery and go home the same day experience any temporary changes in thinking or memory. Researchers want to understand how anesthesia and surgery affect the brain in the short term.
SvendborgAges 70 years+ - NCT06527664Recruiting
Custom hip implant for failed arthritis treatments
This trial tests a custom-made hip socket implant for people who have had a failed hip replacement or arthritis treatment. It aims to see if a personalized implant can provide a better solution.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06208267Recruiting
Tranexamic acid for pain and bleeding after hip or knee replacement
This study tests whether a medicine called tranexamic acid (TXA) can reduce pain, improve movement, and lessen bleeding after hip or knee replacement surgery. It is for adults having their first joint replacement at St. Mary's Hospital.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT05788016Recruiting
Help planning an opioid taper before knee or hip surgery
This study looks at a plan to safely reduce (taper) opioid pain medicines before total knee or hip replacement surgery. It may help people who are already taking opioids and are preparing for surgery in the next 1 to 2 months.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06145516Recruiting
Sleep program to ease pain after joint replacement
This study tests whether a sleep program can help with pain after knee or hip replacement. If you have insomnia and arthritis pain, you may be able to join before your surgery.
Uppsala, UpplandAges 18–100 - NCT06747494Recruiting
Comparing general vs spinal anesthesia for hip or knee replacement
This study compares two types of anesthesia (general and spinal) for people having a total hip or knee replacement. The goal is to see which approach is better for recovery and overall outcomes.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06152198Recruiting
Hip surgery comparison for nondisplaced femoral neck fracture
This trial compares two types of surgery—plates and screws versus hip replacement—for a specific type of hip fracture that is not shifted out of place. The goal is to see which option helps people recover better.
UppsalaAges 75 years+ - NCT05824845Recruiting
Join a study collecting information for hip or knee replacement care
This study asks people in the UK who are getting their first hip or knee replacement to answer questionnaires and let researchers use linked health data. The goal is to improve understanding of outcomes and help set up future studies for better care.
AshingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06563531Recruiting
Do compression stockings help after hip or knee replacement?
This trial looks at whether compression stockings are still needed for people who have a new hip or knee joint and are following a modern "fast-track" recovery program. It aims to find out if these stockings are necessary to prevent blood clots when people are up and moving quickly after surgery.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT06522087Recruiting
40 Hz brain stimulation to prevent confusion after hip or knee replacement
This trial tests if a non-invasive 40 Hz brain stimulation can prevent delirium (sudden confusion) in older adults after hip or knee replacement surgery. Delirium is common after surgery in elderly patients, and this treatment aims to lower that risk.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 65–85 - NCT06469177Enrolling by invitation
Pain management app study for joint replacement recovery
This study tests a smartphone tool to help manage pain after hip, knee, or shoulder replacement. It aims to see if using the tool improves your recovery compared to standard care.
Dartmouth, Nova ScotiaAges 19 years+ - NCT06850818Recruiting
Hip and knee implant registry study
This study is creating a registry of patients who have hip or knee replacement surgery or revision surgery at a specific hospital. The goal is to track outcomes and improve care for future patients.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT05685706Recruiting
Study of spine alignment after hip or knee replacement
This study looks at how the alignment of your spine relates to your walking and posture after hip or knee replacement surgery for wear-and-tear arthritis. It may help doctors better understand how to monitor recovery and long-term function.
Taichung, North DistrictAges Any age - NCT03966716Recruiting
Hip screws or hip replacement for small hip fractures
This study compares two treatments for certain small, stable hip fractures in older adults: using hip screws versus replacing part or all of the hip. It may help find which option works best for healing and returning to movement.
