Automated vs manual tool study for hip replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests whether an automated surgical tool is better than a manual one for putting in hip replacement parts. If you are having a planned first-time hip replacement and are over 18, you might be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having your first hip replacement surgery (not a re-do or emergency).
- You are 18 years or older.
- Your surgeon will use a type of hip implant that works with the study tools.
- You are able to understand and agree to take part in the study.
- You are not pregnant at the time of surgery.

This study tracks how well people recover after hip replacement surgery using the Tipmed hip implant system. Researchers will monitor your healing and implant performance over time to ensure the device works safely and effectively.
This trial tests a new 3D-printed metal hip implant for people who need a first-time hip replacement. It aims to see how well the implant works and helps you recover.
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 a specific way of preparing the hip bone during hip replacement surgery in adults 70 and older. The method may help the new hip fit more securely, which can improve recovery and reduce complications.
This trial tests a software that helps predict where the new hip joint parts will sit after surgery. It may help doctors plan your hip replacement more accurately.
This trial studies a specific hip replacement implant system in people whose hip pain is from worn-out (non-inflammatory) joint disease like osteoarthritis. It compares outcomes by tracking pain and function before and after surgery, and you must be able to return for follow-up visits.
