New hip fracture surgery method aims to reduce arthritis risk

NCT ID NCT06409559

First seen May 05, 2026 · Last updated May 05, 2026

Summary

This study compares two types of metal plates used to fix a broken hip socket (acetabular fracture). The goal is to see if a newer 'rim plate' with screws helps the bone heal better and lowers the chance of arthritis compared to the standard 'buttress plate'. The study will enroll 60 adults aged 18-65 who need surgery within two weeks of their injury.
