Study of pelvic and hip-joint bone fractures
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study is observing people with pelvic ring and acetabular (hip-joint socket) fractures to better understand what happens over time. It may help doctors improve care, even though it does not test a new treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a pelvic ring fracture (the bones of the pelvis are broken).
- You have an acetabular fracture (the hip socket area is broken).
- You are willing to talk with the study team.
- You are willing to sign the consent form to join the study.

This research study collects information about children who have broken their hip socket (the cup-shaped bone that holds the thighbone). Researchers at University of Utah hospitals want to understand how these fractures heal and what outcomes children have over time.
This study looks at how pelvic ring injuries (breaks in the bones of your pelvis) are currently treated in hospitals. It does not test any new treatment—it just observes what happens to see if care can be improved.
This study compares two ways to fix a specific type of hip socket fracture (posterior wall fracture) using a rim plate or a buttress plate, with or without extra screws. It aims to find the best approach for healing.
This study compares two ways of fixing a recently broken acetabulum (the hip socket): one method keeps/repairs the socket (ORIF) and the other replaces it (THA). It aims to find which surgery approach leads to better outcomes for people who can have surgery soon after the injury.
This trial studies whether it’s safe and helpful to start putting weight on the leg after surgery for a broken hip socket. It compares two different early walking (mobilisation) plans to see which leads to better recovery.
This study looks at how to best surgically fix unstable pelvic and acetabular (hip socket) fractures, comparing different operative approaches. You might benefit if your goal is stable healing with a less invasive internal fixation method, but the study requires specific fracture types and long follow-up time.
