Knotless implants for hip capsule closure study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests a new knotless device for closing the hip capsule during hip arthroscopy. It may help patients heal better after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a first-time hip arthroscopy.
- You are under 60 years old.
- Your surgeon will use the Arthrex LoopLoc device for capsule closure.
- You have not had any past hip surgery.
- Your hip socket angle is between 25 and 40 degrees.
- You do not have severe cartilage damage (grade 3 or higher).

This study tests whether changing the rotation of your leg during hip arthroscopy (a keyhole surgery) improves outcomes for people with hip impingement syndrome. It may help you if you have persistent hip pain that hasn't gotten better with other treatments.
This trial compares two types of stitches (absorbable vs. non-absorbable) used to close the hip capsule during hip arthroscopy, to see if one leads to better recovery. If you need hip arthroscopy for a hip problem, you may be able to join.
This study looks at modified tools used during hip arthroscopy for people with hip impingement (FAI) and/or hip dysplasia. It may help patients with long-lasting hip pain and stiffness when non-surgical treatments haven’t worked.
This pilot study tests two different surgical approaches to repair a torn or damaged labrum (cartilage ring) in the hip joint for patients over 40. Both approaches are done through minimally invasive hip arthroscopy, and the trial will help doctors understand which method works better and whether a larger study is feasible.
This study follows people who had a particular bipolar hip implant (RingLoc cup and/or Endo II head) placed during a hemi-hip replacement surgery at least 8 years ago. It checks how well the implants keep working over time and why.
This trial looks at how well hip-preserving surgery works for people who need hip surgery. It may help your care team understand what outcomes to expect after this type of operation.
