CT-planned testing to improve hip fracture and replacement care
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study uses your routine pre-surgery CT scan to study a broken or replacement hip bone with computer modeling and lab-style analysis. It aims to help doctors better understand bone healing and improve how hip fractures and replacements are handled.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years or older
- Be having a first (primary) hip replacement
- Sign informed consent to take part in the study
- Have a routine CT scan before your surgery

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.
This study tests a new CT scan method to see how well your hip replacement implant stays in place over time. It may help doctors improve surgery for people with severe hip pain or disability.
This study uses a special weight-bearing CT scan to look at how your new knee replacement and the bone around it heal after surgery to fix a broken bone just above the knee. It may help doctors understand how well the repair holds up when you put weight on it.
This study involves people with hip osteoarthritis who are planning a first total hip replacement. It tests a “pre-op modelling” approach—likely helping plan care around surgery—to see if it improves how patients do.
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.
This study looks for new markers and treatment targets for osteoporosis by comparing bone tissue from women with a broken hip (due to weak bones) and women getting a hip replacement for arthritis. You may be eligible if you are postmenopausal and have one of these hip conditions.
