Magnetic therapy may ease pain after hip surgery

NCT ID NCT07564427

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether adding high-intensity pulsed electromagnetic field (HI-PEMF) therapy to standard exercise can reduce pain and improve daily function in people who have had a total hip replacement. Forty adults who had hip replacement due to osteoarthritis will receive either HI-PEMF plus exercise or exercise alone. The goal is to see if this non-invasive magnetic treatment helps recovery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

High-Intensity Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (HI-PEMF) device

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a non-invasive way to ease pain and speed up recovery after hip replacement surgery.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The treatment is added to standard exercise, so its standalone benefit is unclear.
