How people with hip arthritis start walking
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.

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.
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 study compares how well people walk after three different types of hip replacement surgery for arthritis. It aims to see if one approach leads to a better walking pattern.
This study looks at how people move and return to sports after total hip replacement surgery. If you are an active person planning to have a hip replacement, this trial may help understand your recovery.
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 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.
