Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis, Hip"

The purpose of this study was to compare the analgesic (a drug that relieves pain) effectiveness and safety of OROS hydromorphone HCI (slow release) 8 mg and 16 mg to placebo (no drug) in patients with osteoarthritis (OA).

We carried out a 3 years, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial in patients with hip osteoarthritis in order to: evaluate the ability of diacerein, an interleukin-1β inhibitor, to slow the progressive decrease in joint space width observed in patients with hip osteoarthritis to investigate the potential structure-modifying effect of diacerein in patients with hip osteoarthritis This study compare also after ten years the percentage of patients in each treatment group who require a hip replacement surgery

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of manual treatment and a patient education programme for patients without indication for hip surgery.

The purpose of the study is to explore the short term effects of chiropractic care on pain and function in patients with hip osteoarthritis.

The purpose of this study is to compare the long-term safety and effectiveness of acetaminophen (4000 mg per day) and naproxen (750 mg per day) in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the hip or knee.

In this work the investigators will study the relationship between chronic musculoskeletal pain and abnormal blood flow (neovascularity) around the shoulder, hip and knee. Veterans with as history of chronic shoulder, hip or knee pain and mild/moderate joint degenerative changes will be potential study subjects. Blood flow around joints will be evaluated using perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Participants with demonstrably abnormal blood flow around their painful joint will be eligible for enrollment in a pilot study of joint embolization to treat their pain. Participants who choose to not undergo treatment will be re-assessed with MRI after one year to characterize the natural history of joint neovascularity and its relationship to pain.

In this project, a web-based exercise program is developed in co-creation between specialized health care, the Norwegian Association for Rheumatic diseases (NRF) and a group of experienced patient representatives. The project emerges from the evidence that exercise is recommended as first-line treatment for patients with chronic diseases like hip- and knee-osteoarthritis (OA). However, the number of patients in need of targeted exercise will increase considerably the next decades, and their treatment needs cannot be fully handled within the health care system. Development of innovative and effective treatment trajectories and follow-up strategies is urgently required. Peer-support is recognized as an effective way to increase patients' long-term adherence to exercise. Thus, patient-organizations may be an unutilized resource in support and follow-up of patients who need long-term exercise as part of their treatment plan. After discharge from examination in hospital, patients with hip/knee OA will be recruited to follow-up in a novel web-based, peer-supported exercise program, and the feasibility of the intervention will be evaluated.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of REGN475 compared to placebo in participants with pain due to osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee or hip and a history of inadequate joint pain relief or intolerance to current analgesic therapy.

The purpose of this study is to compare the short term effectiveness and return to function of subjects undergoing primary Total Hip Arthroplasty using an Anterior Approach (incision on the front part of the hip joint) versus Posterior Approach (incision over back part of the hip joint).

The concept of mobilization with movement, also referred to as a Mulligan mobilization, has not been studied in patients with hip osteoarthritis, subsisting questions about the possible effects in this population. The aim of this randomized controlled study is to compare the immediate effects of Mulligan mobilization with movement technique of pain, range of motion and physical function in patients with osteoarthritis of the hip.
