A new ceramic hip joint for first-time hip replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new ceramic hip joint made from zirconia to see if it works well and is safe for people getting their first hip replacement. If you are eligible, you would receive this new hip implant during your surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Your bones are fully grown (this is usually true for adults).
- Your doctor has told you that you need hip replacement surgery.
- This will be your first hip replacement.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a specific type of ceramic “dual mobility” hip implant for people getting their first total hip replacement (cementless). It may help reduce certain hip problems by using a designed implant that’s meant to move more safely.
This trial studies a specific hip implant (from Medacta) for people who need their first total hip replacement. It aims to see how well the implant works and whether patients recover mobility safely.
This study is testing a new hip replacement system (Spartan, World Cup, and World Liner) in people who need their first hip replacement due to arthritis or similar conditions. It aims to see how well the implant works and how safe it is over time.
This study tests a new cementless hip stem (Insignia) for people having their first total hip replacement. It aims to see how long the implant lasts and how well your hip works after surgery.
This trial looks at how safe and well a specific “reverse” hip implant works in people who need their first total hip replacement. It may help by improving pain and hip function, while closely tracking safety during and after surgery.
This study compares two types of hip replacement surgery: a newer option that preserves more bone (ceramic hip resurfacing) and a standard total hip replacement. Participants will wear a small activity monitor to see how their activity levels change after surgery, which may help doctors understand which procedure leads to a more active recovery.
