ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at a new type of hip prosthesis, or artificial joint, that is coated with a special silver material. The purpose of the study is to find out if this silver coating can help prevent infections that can happen around the hip joint during and after surgery. Infections can be a serious concern for patients, especially those who may have weakened immune systems or conditions like diabetes.

To participate in this trial, you need to be at least 18 years old and able to provide your consent. The study is open to everyone, including those with health issues that may increase their risk for infections. If you decide to join, you will be closely monitored to see how well the silver-coated prosthesis works in preventing infections. The trial is currently recruiting participants, and your involvement could help improve treatment options for future patients facing similar challenges.
