Comparing two hip cup types to prevent dislocation
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial compares a “dual-mobility” hip cup to a “unipolar” hip cup during primary hip replacement, focusing on dislocation (the hip coming out of place) and overall cost-effectiveness. It may help your care team choose the best implant for you and monitor outcomes after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having an elective first-time total hip replacement using a cemented cup
- Your hip cup has a 32 mm or 36 mm liner size
- Your surgery uses a posterolateral surgical approach
- You are 70 years old or older
- You can read and understand Dutch and complete questionnaires (PROMs)
- Your surgeon believes you could receive either a unipolar cup or a dual-mobility cup

This study compares hip implant “migration” (how the implant may slowly shift) when a cemented hip cup is used with different cement approaches. It may help surgeons choose the option that keeps the implant more stable over time.
This trial compares two different surgical approaches for total hip replacement: the direct superior approach and the posterolateral approach. It aims to see which one leads to better recovery and outcomes for people with severe 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.
This trial compares how bone grows around two different titanium cups used in hip replacement surgery. It aims to see which cup design leads to better bone remodeling and stability after the procedure.
This trial compares a new hip implant (H1) to a standard total hip replacement. It is for people who need hip replacement on one side due to arthritis or other hip conditions and can commit to long-term follow-up.
This trial compares two types of hip socket implants (dual-mobility cups vs. standard cups) during first-time hip replacement through the front of the hip. It aims to see which type may reduce the risk of dislocation after surgery.
