Summary

This study compares two surgical approaches for hip replacement after a broken hip. Researchers want to see if a newer muscle-sparing technique (SPAIRE) leads to less pain, better mobility, and faster recovery than the standard lateral approach. The trial involves 476 patients over age 50 with femoral neck fractures who need hip replacement surgery.
