Bursa repair for hip pain after hip replacement
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether repairing a small tissue sac (bursa) near the hip joint during hip replacement surgery reduces pain on the outside of the hip after the operation. The bursa normally cushions the hip, and repairing it may help prevent lateral hip pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 65 years old or older.
- You have a new break in the neck of your thigh bone (femoral neck) on one side.
- You are scheduled for a hip replacement (hemiarthroplasty) through an incision at the back of the hip.
- You can make your own decisions about joining the study and can give written consent.
- You can rate your pain on a scale from 0 to 10.
- During surgery, the surgeon finds that the bursa (cushioning sac) can be repaired.

This study compares different rehabilitation methods after hip arthroscopy surgery for common causes of hip pain, like labral tears or femoroacetabular impingement. It may help find a recovery plan that works better and whether a smartphone blood-flow-restriction tool can be used safely.
This study tests if a second hip surgery can help people who still have pain at least 6 months after their first hip surgery. It may help you if you have ongoing hip pain and haven't needed strong pain pills.
This study compares two ways to treat a torn labrum in the hip: one group gets standard hip arthroscopy (keyhole surgery), and the other gets the same surgery plus an injection of your own bone marrow cells to help healing. It aims to see if adding the injection improves pain and function.
This study is checking how well a specific type of partial hip replacement (a metal ball used in hip surgery) holds up over time in people who had a certain kind of hip fracture. If you've already had this surgery, joining the study means you'll be followed to see how your hip is doing.
This study tests whether a nerve block plus local anesthetic can improve pain control during and after hip replacement surgery for a broken hip. It may help reduce the need for stronger pain medications and improve recovery.
This trial compares two types of surgery—plates and screws versus hip replacement—for a specific type of hip fracture that is not shifted out of place. The goal is to see which option helps people recover better.
