Cemented vs cement-free robotic knee replacement surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways surgeons can attach a knee replacement using robotic-assisted surgery: with cement or without cement. It may help improve how well the new knee lasts and how patients recover after a first-time knee replacement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have knee arthritis that affects the inner, outer, or whole knee
- You are planning your first total knee replacement (not a revision)
- You can understand the study and agree to follow post-surgery instructions
- Your bone is judged to be good enough by the surgeon
- Your knee bending before surgery is at least 90 degrees

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two types of knee replacements: one where the implant is glued in (cemented) and one where it locks into the bone without glue (cementless). It is for people with knee osteoarthritis who need a first-time total knee replacement.
This trial tests two types of knee implants during robot-assisted surgery. It aims to see which one works better for people needing a first-time total knee replacement due to arthritis or similar conditions.
This study compares two types of cementless total knee replacements to see which one helps you walk better. You may be eligible if you are under 65 and have arthritis on the inner side of your knee with a bow-leg deformity.
This trial compares robotic-assisted knee replacement with the usual (non-robotic) approach for people with severe arthritis on the inner (medial) side of the knee. It aims to see which method works better for pain and function while matching the right knee anatomy for certain implant types.
This study compares two modern ways of doing knee replacement: robot-assisted surgery versus a custom-made implant tailored to your knee shape. It aims to see which approach leads to better recovery and function for people with osteoarthritis.
This study tests if robot-assisted total knee replacement surgery is safe and effective. It may help people who need knee replacement surgery by using advanced technology for more precise implant placement.
