Testing a plan for hip replacement surgery timing
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have hip osteoarthritis and need your first (primary) total hip replacement
- You are 40 years of age or older
- Your body mass index (BMI) is under 40
- You can sign consent and are able to attend study check-ins and follow instructions
- Your other hip has good enough movement (no major range-of-motion limitations)

This study follows people getting a primary total hip replacement using the Entrada hip system to see how long it lasts and how well it works. You may be offered this specific hip implant and would be followed through study visits to measure recovery and outcomes.
This trial studies a specific hip implant (from Medacta) for people who need their first total hip replacement. It aims to see how well the implant works and whether patients recover mobility safely.
This study follows people waiting for hip or knee replacement surgery due to osteoarthritis. It helps researchers understand how to better support patients during the wait.
This study compares two different surgical techniques for total knee replacement to see which one leads to better knee movement and function. If you need a knee replacement due to arthritis, this trial may help find the best approach for your surgery.
This study compares three types of hip replacement surgery (total hip, Minihip, and RSA) using 3D imaging to see which one best restores normal hip function. It might be a good fit if you are planning one of these surgeries and have a healthy other hip.
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.
