Recruiting studies
- NCT05227924Recruiting
Testing safety and performance of a hip implant device type
This study checks how safe and well a specific brand of hip implant (SYMBOL range) works in people getting a total hip replacement. It may help by confirming the device performs as expected for primary or revision surgeries.
BeaumontAges 18 years+ - NCT06640764Recruiting
Study of Medacta SMS hip stem for hip replacement
This study tests a specific hip implant (the Medacta SMS stem) for people needing a total hip replacement. It aims to see how well the implant works for patients with hip pain or disability from arthritis, injury, or other hip conditions.
Saint-JeanAges 18–85 - NCT06845735Recruiting
Comparing two types of stitches for hip surgery closure
This trial compares two types of stitches (absorbable vs. non-absorbable) used to close the hip capsule during hip arthroscopy, to see if one leads to better recovery. If you need hip arthroscopy for a hip problem, you may be able to join.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT03328611Recruiting
Joint replacement outcomes database for degenerative joint disease
This study collects information about people with “wear-and-tear” joint disease who need joint replacement. The goal is to better understand outcomes after surgery and improve future care.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges Any age - NCT06771050RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotics and surgery for hip and knee joint infections
This trial tests different antibiotic types and durations, plus surgical approaches, for people with a current joint infection in a hip or knee. It aims to find the best way to treat the infection and prevent it from coming back.
Garran, Australian Capital TerritoryAges 18 years+ - NCT02329093Recruiting
Hip osteoarthritis with pain, testing non-weight bearing
This study looks at whether reducing weight on the hip can help slow how hip arthritis shows up on X-rays in people who have hip joint pain. It may be an option if your pain is from hip arthritis rather than a clear fracture.
Matsumoto, NaganoAges Any age - NCT03704766Recruiting
Testing fluid markers to detect pediatric joint infections
This study checks special lab markers in joint fluid to tell septic (infected) arthritis apart from other inflammatory causes in children. It may help clinicians detect infection more accurately and quickly so kids can get the right treatment.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges Up to 17 years - NCT07255768Enrolling by invitation
Pain relief blocks for hip surgery: comparing two methods
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after hip surgery. One block targets the capsule around the hip joint, while the other adds blocks for nearby nerves. The goal is to find a more effective way to manage pain.
ErzurumAges 18–80 - NCT07147530RecruitingPhase 4
Powered exercise device for walking in hip disease
This study tests a new powered exercise device designed to help people with hip problems walk better. It may be a good option if you have hip osteoarthritis or avascular necrosis and can do some standing and walking with support.
Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do, South KoreaAges 19 years+ - NCT05000723Recruiting
Follow-up for hip joint infection after joint replacement
This study checks what happens over the long term for people who had an infection around a replaced (prosthetic) hip. It mainly helps doctors understand recovery and long-term outcomes after treatment.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT06172010RecruitingPhase 4
Rifampicin plus antibiotics for staph joint replacement infection
This study tests whether adding the antibiotic rifampicin to standard treatment works better than standard treatment alone for staph infections in hip or knee replacements. The goal is to find a more effective way to clear the infection and avoid more surgeries.
Leiden, Zuid HollansAges 18 years+ - NCT07716215Recruiting
Which exercise helps sacroiliac joint pain more?
This study compares two types of exercises—core stability exercises versus hip-strengthening exercises—to see which works better for reducing pain and improving function in people with long-term sacroiliac joint dysfunction. It may help you find a targeted treatment for your chronic pelvic or low back pain.
RawalpindiAges 25–55 - NCT07473089Recruiting
Swiss study on joint replacement revision for infection
This study looks at people who need a second (revision) surgery on a large joint replacement like a hip, knee, shoulder, ankle, or elbow because of a suspected or confirmed infection. The goal is to learn more about these infections and improve care.
AarauAges 18 years+ - NCT07651735Recruiting
Safety and Recovery Study of Tipmed Hip Replacement
This study tracks how well people recover after hip replacement surgery using the Tipmed hip implant system. Researchers will monitor your healing and implant performance over time to ensure the device works safely and effectively.
BalıkesirAges 18 years+ - NCT05357378Recruiting
Hip replacement study using a reverse hip implant
This trial looks at how safe and well a specific “reverse” hip implant works in people who need their first total hip replacement. It may help by improving pain and hip function, while closely tracking safety during and after surgery.
Miami, FloridaAges 50–75 - NCT06919913Recruiting
Probiotics for joint infection surgery
This study tests if taking probiotics before and after surgery can help your immune system fight infection in a hip or knee replacement. You would be given a probiotic or a placebo alongside your standard treatment.
New York, New YorkAges 18–90 - NCT06636669Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Probiotics to prevent repeat joint infection after replacement surgery
This trial tests whether taking probiotics can help prevent another infection in people who have had a hip or knee replacement that became infected. If you are scheduled for revision surgery due to an infection, this study may be a good fit.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–90 - NCT05548972Enrolling by invitation
Follow-up study of a hip replacement to improve implant wear
This study checks how well a specific hip replacement bearing surface (called dual mobility with Vivacit-E or Longevity) performs over time in real-world patients. It may help people by tracking long-term safety and performance to guide better hip replacement choices.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18–80 - NCT06653985Recruiting
Hip injection plus physical therapy for mild hip problems
This trial tests a combination of a steroid and lubricant injection into the hip joint plus physical therapy to treat mild hip arthritis or related issues like a labral tear. It aims to see if this approach can reduce pain and improve function without surgery.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 40–60 - NCT03484325Enrolling by invitation
Patient registry for joint replacement and related surgeries
This trial is a “registry,” meaning it collects information from people who choose certain elective joint surgeries. It may help doctors better understand outcomes and safety after procedures like hip and knee operations.
Houston, TexasAges 18–100 - NCT05939674Recruiting
Flumazenil to aid waking up after anesthesia for hip surgery
This study looks at whether a medicine called flumazenil can help people wake up more safely and recover better after being put to sleep for hip surgery using a specific anesthesia medication. It may help doctors understand the best way to reverse anesthesia effects in older adults.
Yangsan, Gyeongsangnam-doAges 65 years+ - NCT06432543Recruiting
Wear particle study in revision hip replacement
This study looks at tiny plastic particles that wear off from artificial hip joints over time. Researchers will study these particles from tissue taken during revision hip replacement surgery to understand how they affect the body.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 20 years+ - NCT05507099RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell injections for knee or hip osteoarthritis pain
This Phase 2 study tests whether stem cell injections can reduce pain and improve symptoms in people with knee or hip osteoarthritis. You may be considered if you have moderate-to-severe pain despite trying standard treatments.
Brampton, OntarioAges 18–95 - NCT07526012Recruiting
Stretching techniques for buttock pain from pinched nerve
This study compares two stretching methods to treat piriformis syndrome, a condition where a muscle in your buttock pinches a nerve. The trial tests whether one stretching approach works better than the other for reducing pain.
