FEMORAL NECK FRACTURES

This study compares two surgical methods for fixing broken hips in adults under 65. It tests if a new, more rigid implant keeps the broken bone more stable during healing than the standard screws. Researchers will precisely measure bone movement, track complications, and monitor …

This study is testing whether using artificial intelligence (AI) to help plan the placement of surgical screws is better than a surgeon planning alone for fixing broken hips. It will involve 334 adults with a hip fracture who need screw fixation. Researchers will compare if AI-as…

This study follows patients for up to 10 years after hip replacement surgery to see how safe and effective two specific implant devices are. It will track any complications, how well patients can move, and their quality of life. The goal is to gather long-term data on these medic…

This study compares two common surgeries for a specific type of broken hip in adults aged 60 and older. It aims to find out if a joint replacement (arthroplasty) leads to better recovery than using metal screws or pins to hold the bone together (internal fixation). Researchers wi…

This study is testing if a steroid injection given around the new hip joint during replacement surgery helps patients recover better. It aims to see if the injection reduces pain, shortens hospital stays, and lessens the need for strong painkillers after surgery. The study will i…

This study compares two different nerve block techniques to manage pain after hip replacement surgery for hip fractures. Researchers want to see which method provides better pain relief while preserving leg muscle strength to help patients move sooner. The study involves 80 elder…

This study is testing if a new, long-acting numbing medicine is better at managing pain after hip replacement surgery than a standard numbing medicine. People having hip surgery will receive one of the two numbing shots around their hip nerves. Researchers will measure how much s…

This study aims to learn how the anesthesia drug ciprofol works in the bodies of older adults having surgery on their arms or legs. Researchers will collect blood samples and monitor 50 patients at a single hospital to build a computer model of how the drug is processed. This mod…

This study is testing whether a simple, one-page conversation guide helps doctors and patients have better discussions about anesthesia options before hip fracture surgery. It involves nearly 1,900 patients aged 50+ across six US hospitals. The goal is to see if this tool, combin…
