Follow-up study of a hip replacement to improve implant wear
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Immune system & allergy, Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.
This study checks how well a specific hip replacement bearing surface (called dual mobility with Vivacit-E or Longevity) performs over time in real-world patients. It may help people by tracking long-term safety and performance to guide better hip replacement choices.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re between 18 and 80 years old
- You’ve finished growing (skeletally mature)
- You need a hip replacement based on your history and exam (like arthritis, certain bone problems, dislocation risk, deformity correction, a prior failed surgery, or specific hip fractures)
- You can and agree to attend scheduled follow-up visits and sign consent
- There’s no active infection or bone infection in the affected hip
- You don’t have severe bone-weakening problems or other conditions that could prevent healing

This is an observational study that follows people over time after hip hemiarthroplasty (a partial hip replacement). It aims to understand how well Corin hip devices work long-term in everyday care, and what outcomes to expect.
This study looks at a specific type of hip replacement liner (the part inside the hip joint) and how well it works after surgery. You might be eligible if you’re planning a one-sided hip replacement and don’t have certain infection, bone, or health problems that could affect healing.
This study checks how well a particular hip replacement stem (the PROFEMUR Preserve Classic Femoral Stem) and matching parts keep working over many years. You may be invited if you had that exact hip replacement combination and can return for long-term checkups.
This trial tests a new way of tracking how well hip replacements settle in over time using special X-ray images. It is for adults who need a first-time total hip replacement due to conditions like arthritis, injury, or hip deformity.
This study looks at how well a specific hip implant (the acetabular cup and femoral stem) works over short, mid, and long-term follow-up. It may help you and other patients by improving understanding of implant outcomes after surgery.
This trial studies a specific kind of hip socket (a dual-mobility cup) used during revision hip replacement surgery. It may help improve hip stability and reduce the chance of dislocation when surgeons redo or convert a previous hip implant.
