This trial looks at how muscle health affects your ability to get back to normal activities after hip replacement surgery for a broken hip or severe arthritis. By using MRI scans and other tests, researchers hope to understand if having less muscle makes recovery harder.
This study looks at differences inside the hip joint and in body cells when people have hip arthritis or rheumatoid arthritis and receive a hip replacement. Researchers hope this can improve understanding and future treatments for these conditions.
This trial compares how well people under 50 can return to sports after either a total hip replacement or hip resurfacing surgery. It aims to see which procedure helps you get back to your favorite activities faster and more fully.
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.
