Pre-surgery hip replacement modeling study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to plan hip replacement surgery using a CT scan. It may help doctors place the new hip more accurately, which could lead to better outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have hip arthritis and are planning to have a hip replacement.
- You are 40 years old or older.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is less than 40.
- You can have a CT scan.
- You have not had prior surgery on that hip or lower spine with metal hardware.
- You do not have a fixed deformity or certain spinal conditions (like DISH), and you have no limiting stiffness in the other hip.
