Biobank study using samples from hip or knee conditions
This study collects and stores biological samples to help researchers better understand muscle and bone problems like osteoarthritis, bone tumors, and infected joint implants. If you are eligible, your samples may support future research that could lead to better prevention or treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years or older
- Be a patient admitted to this hospital/institute
- Have one of these conditions: hip or knee osteoarthritis after rehab here, a primary or secondary bone (skeleton) tumor, or an implant infection needing replacement surgery
- Be able to understand and agree to the informed consent
