Prehabilitation before hip replacement surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests a prehabilitation program (exercises before surgery) to see if it helps older people recover better after total hip replacement. The program may strengthen your muscles and improve your overall health before the operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 60 years old or older.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18.5 and 40.
- You are scheduled for hip replacement surgery on one hip due to severe arthritis.

- You do not smoke.
- You do not have severe arthritis in the other hip.
- You do not have significant psychiatric or neurological conditions, or uncontrolled health problems that could make exercise unsafe.

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.
This study gives men who are having a hip replacement a testosterone treatment around the time of surgery to see if it helps with recovery and overall outcomes. It aims to improve muscle strength and function after the operation.
This trial tests a program to improve your health before hip or knee replacement surgery. It aims to help you recover better and reduce risks.
This study tests whether a 'prehabilitation' program (tailored exercise and nutrition support before surgery) helps older patients who are frail recover better after hip or knee replacement. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the prehabilitation group or the usual care group.
This study tests whether doing supervised exercises before knee replacement surgery improves recovery and outcomes. You will be asked to do a training program before your operation, and the researchers will compare results with patients who do not have this pre-surgical training.
This trial studies whether doing a structured exercise or “prehab” program before total knee replacement can improve knee function and patient satisfaction after surgery. It may help you recover better and feel more confident in your outcome.
