Recruiting studies
- NCT07687290Recruiting
Comparing two nerve blocks for hip fracture pain before spinal anesthesia
This trial tests two types of nerve blocks to see which one works better for managing pain while positioning hip fracture patients before they receive spinal anesthesia. The goal is to find a more comfortable way to prepare for surgery.
CairoAges 18–70 - NCT03461237Recruiting
Study of care after osteoporotic hip fractures
This study looks at people with osteoporotic hip fractures (breaks in the femur near the hip) and evaluates their care and outcomes. It may help improve how hip fractures are treated in people whose bones are weaker due to osteoporosis.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50–95 - NCT05660603Recruiting
Nerve blocks for hip fracture surgery pain control
This trial compares two different pain-control methods (two types of nerve blocks) during hip fracture surgery under general anesthesia. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safer for pain relief after surgery.
Zagazig, AlsharqiaAges 60 years+ - NCT06014554Recruiting
Tailored rehabilitation after hip fracture surgery
This trial tests a structured rehabilitation program for older adults who have had surgery for a broken hip. The goal is to help you recover better and return to your daily activities.
LondonAges 60 years+ - NCT06183541Recruiting
Nerve block for hip fracture surgery pain
This study tests a special numbing medicine injection (called a pericapsular nerve group block) to see how well it controls pain during and after hip fracture surgery. It might help people have less pain and recover more comfortably.
Istanbul, UmraniyeAges 30–85 - NCT07202208Recruiting
Preventing confusion after hip fracture surgery
This trial tests a special care plan (the 'Delirium Zero Protocol') to help prevent confusion (delirium) after hip fracture surgery. It is for people over 65 who are having hip fracture surgery and have a family member or caregiver who can be involved.
Manises, ValenciaAges 65 years+ - NCT06451679Recruiting
Hip fracture patients' diet after surgery
This study looks at what hip fracture patients eat after surgery. It aims to understand dietary patterns to help improve recovery.
MiddlesbroughAges 60 years+ - NCT06455813RecruitingPhase 4
Best laxative after hip fracture surgery
This trial is comparing different laxatives to help prevent constipation after hip fracture surgery. It is for older adults (65+) who recently had hip surgery and are not already using laxatives.
KoldingAges 65–110 - NCT06898814RecruitingPhase 4
Iron infusions to improve walking after hip fracture
This study tests whether giving iron through a vein can help older adults walk better after hip fracture surgery. It is for people who have anemia (low red blood cells) after their operation.
Copenhagen NVAges 65 years+ - NCT07073209Recruiting
Nerve blocks for hip fracture pain relief
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (one near the hip bone, one in the thigh) to see which provides better pain relief for people with a hip fracture. If you qualify, you would receive one of these blocks as part of your standard care.
Manhattan, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05091645Recruiting
Testing a Greek version of a frailty screening for hip fracture patients
This trial checks whether a translated and culturally adapted questionnaire (called the Groningen Frailty Indicator) works well for people age 65+ who have a hip fracture and are having surgery. It may help care teams better understand frailty and plan support after surgery.
LarissaAges 65 years+ - NCT07442721Recruiting
Comparing two types of nerve blocks for hip replacement pain
This study compares two different nerve block methods to see which provides better pain relief for people having a partial hip replacement. It will help doctors choose the best way to manage pain after surgery.
El Fayoum Qesm, Faiyum GovernorateAges 50–90 - NCT05425355RecruitingPhase 4
IV versus oral acetaminophen after hip-fracture surgery
This trial compares giving acetaminophen (Tylenol) through a vein versus by mouth after hip-fracture surgery. It may help find which method works better for pain control and recovery in adults.
Toronto, OntarioAges 60 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+ - NCT06893406Recruiting
Neck condition and hip fracture study
This trial is looking at whether a neck condition (cervical myelopathy) might be linked to falls that cause hip fractures. It involves reviewing your hospital records to learn more about your fall and any related spine issues.
Fishers, IndianaAges 50 years+ - NCT06614478Recruiting
Frailty, hip fractures and inflammation study
This study looks at how frailty and inflammation affect recovery after a hip fracture in older adults. It aims to find biomarkers that could help personalize care.
Larissa, ThessalyAges 65 years+ - NCT06818409Recruiting
Blood test to predict confusion after hip fracture surgery
This study looks at a simple blood test called CALLY (CRP-Albumin-Lymphocyte) to see if it can predict which older adults might become confused after hip fracture surgery. The goal is to identify those at risk early so doctors can take steps to prevent or manage delirium.
Ankara, KeçiörenAges 65 years+ - NCT07309575Recruiting
Hip fracture surgery: regional vs. general anesthesia
This trial compares two types of anesthesia (regional, which numbs just the hip area, vs. general, which puts you fully asleep) to see which one helps with breathing after surgery. It is for patients over 65 having hip fracture surgery.
Lisbon, Lisbon DistrictAges 65 years+ - NCT04730622Recruiting
Studying muscle and bone changes after a hip fracture
This study looks at how bone health and muscle strength (“osteosarcopenia” — loss of both bone and muscle) change after a hip fracture in older adults. It may help doctors understand who is at higher risk and how to better support recovery after hip surgery.
BolognaAges 65 years+ - NCT07046052Recruiting
Pain block after hip fracture surgery: continuous vs. periodic injection
This trial compares two ways of delivering pain medication after hip fracture surgery. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either a steady continuous infusion or periodic small doses through a nerve block, to see which method works better for pain control.
Cork, CorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07392515Recruiting
Digital rehab for hip fracture recovery in older adults
This trial tests whether a digital rehabilitation program can help older adults recover their thinking and movement skills after hip fracture surgery. It uses sensors and digital tools to guide therapy, making it easier to do from a rehabilitation ward.
Messina, ItalyAges 65–89 - NCT07738458Recruiting
Robot-assisted surgery for hip fracture repair
This study tests whether using a robot to help fix a broken hip (specifically a type of fracture called intertrochanteric) leads to better recovery. The robot assists the surgeon in placing a metal nail inside the bone to hold it together while it heals.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05070169Recruiting
Early surgery for hip fractures in people on blood thinners
This study looks at whether fixing a hip fracture sooner is better for people who take a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) blood thinner. It compares early surgery versus delayed surgery in people whose delay is specifically from the blood thinner.
ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT05587244Enrolling by invitation
Hip liner study for people getting a hip replacement
This study looks at a specific type of hip replacement liner (the part inside the hip joint) and how well it works after surgery. You might be eligible if you’re planning a one-sided hip replacement and don’t have certain infection, bone, or health problems that could affect healing.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–80

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hip fractures?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 106 recruiting hip fractures 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 hip fractures 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 hip fractures 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.
