Recruiting studies
- NCT06891807Recruiting
Robotic vs augmented reality knee replacement
This study compares two advanced technologies for total knee replacement: a robot that uses a CT scan for guidance versus an augmented reality system that uses no scan. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes for patients with osteoarthritis.

Nurse-led telehealth vs in-person follow-up after knee replacement
This trial compares follow-up care with a nurse via video calls or phone versus in-person visits after your first total knee replacement. It aims to see if telehealth is as good as in-person for your recovery.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT07548385RecruitingPhase 3
New pain medicine for after knee replacement surgery
This study tests a new medication called suzetrigine to help manage pain after knee replacement surgery. The goal is to see if it reduces pain and discomfort better than current treatments.

Physical Therapy After Knee Replacement Surgery
This study tests whether a physical therapy program helps improve walking ability and foot pressure patterns in women who have had knee replacement surgery or have knee problems. The goal is to see if structured rehabilitation helps you walk better and more comfortably.
SakakahAges 40–70 - NCT07362589Enrolling by invitation
Does pain education before knee or hip replacement help?
This study tests whether a special education session before knee or hip replacement surgery can help reduce anxiety, pain, and the need for pain medicine after surgery. If you are scheduled for joint replacement and can take part in a short learning session, you may be eligible.
Istanbul, KayişdağiAges 18 years+ - NCT06670651Enrolling by invitation
Study of a new total knee replacement system
This trial is testing a new knee replacement system called LinkSymphoKnee. It is for people needing a first-time total knee replacement to help reduce pain and improve function.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–79 - NCT07539467Enrolling by invitation
Nerve Block and Tourniquet for Knee Surgery Pain Relief
This trial tests whether a nerve block (numbing injection near the thigh) combined with a tourniquet (pressure cuff) after knee replacement surgery reduces pain better than standard care. If it works, it could help patients recover more comfortably with less need for strong pain medications.
AnkaraAges 40–85 - NCT06251869Recruiting
Electrocautery vs. Scalpel in Joint Replacement Surgery
This trial compares two surgical tools—electrocautery and a cold knife (scalpel)—to see which works better during joint replacement surgery. It aims to find the best way to make incisions, which could mean less bleeding and faster healing.
Cluj-Napoca, ClujAges 18–90 - NCT07127042RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a drug to reduce bleeding during knee replacement
This trial tests an experimental drug called BT-114143 to see if it reduces bleeding during and after total knee replacement surgery. It may be a good option for people with osteoarthritis who are having their first knee replacement.
Chengdu, Si'ChuanAges 18–70 - NCT04848896Recruiting
Safety and outcomes study of a smart knee replacement
This trial studies whether a “smart” knee replacement system (CORI) is safe and works well for people getting a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). If you’re a good candidate for a cemented standard knee replacement, the study follows you for two years to check results after surgery.
EppingAges 18 years+ - NCT07123805Recruiting
Acupuncture for knee replacement recovery
This study tests if adding acupuncture before and after knee replacement surgery helps reduce pain and improve recovery. It may be an option for people having planned knee replacement for osteoarthritis.
Pavia, PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT07337772Recruiting
Comparing corticosteroid doses in knee replacement pain relief injection
This study compares different doses of a corticosteroid (an anti-inflammatory medicine) injected into the knee during total knee replacement surgery. The goal is to see which dose provides the best pain relief after surgery. It is for people having their first knee replacement due to osteoarthritis.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–100 - NCT06474182Recruiting
Apixaban for blood clots in myeloma patients
This study looks at how Apixaban (a blood thinner) works in people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. It compares them to people having knee replacement surgery. The goal is to see if the drug prevents clots effectively in both groups.
Saint-EtienneAges 18 years+ - NCT06298721Recruiting
Personalized care to improve knee replacement satisfaction
This study tests a personalized approach to knee replacement surgery designed for people who are at higher risk of being dissatisfied after the procedure. The goal is to see if tailoring care based on patient-reported outcomes can improve satisfaction.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–80 - NCT07199738Recruiting
