Remote conditioning after hip fracture surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Aged 18 or older
- Had a broken hip found on an X-ray or CT scan within the last week
- Able to give informed consent
- No serious blood vessel or nerve problems in the arm to be treated
- No recent stroke, heart attack, or major heart problems

This trial tests a structured rehabilitation program for older adults who have had surgery for a broken hip. The goal is to help you recover better and return to your daily activities.
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 tests a non-invasive method called remote ischemic conditioning, which involves brief cycles of inflation and deflation of a blood pressure cuff on the arm. It may help improve health outcomes for people with spinal cord injury who are not currently able to exercise.
This trial tests a treatment that uses a blood pressure cuff on your arms to try to protect your brain and organs after your heart stopped outside the hospital. You will be in the intensive care unit, and the study will check if this simple 'remote conditioning' can improve recovery.
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.
This study tests a simple, non-invasive treatment called remote ischemic conditioning (using a blood pressure cuff to briefly stop blood flow to one arm) to see how it affects heart and blood flow in critically ill patients in the ICU. If you are in the ICU, over 18, and have a special heart monitor, you may be able to join.
