Remote preconditioning for cemented hip replacement recovery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a simple, safe treatment called remote ischemic preconditioning (using a blood pressure cuff on your arm just before surgery) can help people recover better after cemented hip replacement. It is for patients aged 66 and older who are scheduled for this surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 66 years old or older.
- You are having a cemented (glued) total hip replacement surgery.
- You do not have peripheral artery disease that affects both arms.
- You have no medical reason that prevents you from receiving remote ischemic preconditioning (a safe, temporary blood flow restriction treatment).

This study tests a prehabilitation program (exercises before surgery) for older adults waiting for a total hip replacement. The goal is to see if strengthening before surgery helps recovery afterward. It is for people with severe hip arthritis who are otherwise in good health.
This study tests if a simple, non-invasive treatment using a blood pressure cuff on the arm can help reduce complications after hip fracture surgery. It might help improve recovery by preparing the body to handle the stress of surgery.
This trial tests whether a simple “arm cuff” treatment done before a heart artery procedure can help protect the kidneys and the heart in people with congestive heart failure. If it works, it may lower the chance of kidney injury around the time of the scan/stent procedure.
This study tests whether a simple, noninvasive procedure called Remote Ischemic Preconditioning (RIPC) — where a blood pressure cuff is briefly tightened on an arm or leg — can improve long-term recovery for people who have had a heart attack. The treatment is done many times over a long period to see if it helps the heart heal and reduces future problems.
This study tests whether a simple, non-invasive procedure on your arm can change certain substances in your blood. It may help researchers understand how to protect the body from injury.
This study tests whether a simple, non-invasive treatment called remote ischemic conditioning (using a blood pressure cuff on your arm) can help patients recover better after off-pump heart bypass surgery. The goal is to see if it reduces complications and improves heart function.
