4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Pre-arthritic hip disorders can cause pain, interfere with daily activities and exercise, and lead to the development of osteoarthritis in young adults. Surgical and conservative treatment options are being developed and studied, but it is currently unclear why some patients improve with a particular treatment plan while others do not. The goal of this research project is to develop a tool that predicts which combination of treatment options will be most effective for each individual patient.
This is a post-approval study with prospective enrollment in the United States and a retrospective enrollment outside the United States to obtain functional, quality of life and radiographic data, which will facilitate assessment of the clinical performance of the Zimmer Trilogy AB Acetabular Hip System.
The objective of this study is to gather clinical and survivorship information for the C2a-Taper™ Acetabular System, a ceramic-on-ceramic hip articulating system.
Patients undergoing a hip scope procedure will be recruited for this study. They will be randomized to either receive a nerve block or no nerve block (pain medicine only). Pain levels and clinical outcomes will be assessed through 3 months post-operatively.
