Eligibility Criteria Checklist

Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial

Must have

15 patients between the ages of 50 and 75 yrs having undergone a primary total hip replacement or hip resurfacing within 6 to 18 months of the study will participate, as well as an equal number of age, sex, height and weight matched healthy control participants.

Be older than 18 years old

Timeline

Screening 3 weeks

Treatment Varies

Follow Up 6-18 months post surgery

Awards & highlights

Study Summary

This trial aims to understand how the movement of the hips and legs differs in patients who have had hip surgery compared to a group of healthy individuals. The researchers will analyze the biomechanics of the joints

Who is the study for?

This trial is for people aged 50-75 who had hip replacement or resurfacing surgery 6-18 months ago. It's also for a similar group without the surgery, matched by age, sex, height, and weight.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study looks at how patients with hip replacements move compared to healthy individuals. They'll be analyzed while walking, climbing stairs, and getting in and out of a car.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this study involves motion analysis rather than medication or invasive procedures, there are no direct side effects associated with the interventions being tested.

Answered by AI

Do I meet the requirements to be considered as a potential candidate for this medical study?

"This research aims to recruit a sample of 30 individuals diagnosed with osteoarthritis, aged between 50 and 75 years. Specifically, the study seeks to enroll 15 patients who have received primary total hip replacement or hip resurfacing surgery within the past 6 to 18 months. Additionally, an equivalent number of healthy control participants will be selected based on age, sex, height, and weight criteria."

Answered by AI

Is the enrollment for this medical study limited to individuals who are 35 years old and above?

"This clinical trial accepts individuals between the ages of 50 and 75. Please note that there are currently a total of 26 studies available for participants under the age of 18, while there are 555 studies geared towards those who are over the age of 65."
