FEMORAL NECK FRACTURES

This study compares two surgical approaches for repairing broken hips in adults aged 16-60. Surgeons will either manipulate the bone back into place through a small incision (closed reduction) or through a larger opening (open reduction), then secure it with screws. Researchers w…

This large study is testing whether using bone cement containing two antibiotics is better than the standard single-antibiotic cement at preventing serious joint infections after hip replacement surgery for a broken hip. It involves about 7,000 patients aged 60 and older across S…

This study aimed to test a new type of metal rod (the Artemis PFN) used to fix broken hips. The goal was to see if it was safer, worked better, and was easier for surgeons to use than older implants. The study planned to compare results from patients getting the new implant to pa…

This study is tracking the long-term safety and performance of a specific cemented hip replacement implant called the Avenir stem. It will follow 100 patients who receive the implant for up to 10 years after their surgery. The main goal is to see how well the implant lasts and to…

This study follows patients for up to 10 years after hip replacement surgery to check the long-term safety and performance of a specialized implant liner. The liner is designed for patients at high risk of their hip dislocating, such as those with severe arthritis, certain hip fr…

This pilot study is testing whether a full hip replacement (arthroplasty) leads to better recovery than the standard metal screws (internal fixation) for older adults with a specific type of hip fracture. It involves 40 participants aged 60+ and will follow them for one year to g…

This study compares two different nerve block techniques combined with low-dose spinal anesthesia for older adults having hip fracture surgery. Researchers want to see which method better prevents dangerous drops in blood pressure during surgery and provides better pain relief af…
