New hip surgery study aims to reduce reoperations and improve recovery for seniors
NCT ID NCT05947058
Summary
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 gather information for a larger future trial. The goal is to find the best surgical approach to help patients walk better and avoid needing more surgeries.
