Collagen supplement study before and after knee replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether taking collagen peptides can improve how knee tissues heal and remodel after total knee arthroplasty (knee replacement). It also looks at functional recovery and wound healing, especially during the physical therapy period in Little Rock.

This study compares a new plastic-and-metal knee implant to a standard metal one for people with severe knee arthritis. If you need a total knee replacement and your knee is not too bent or twisted, you may be a candidate.
This trial tests whether taking tranexamic acid (a medicine that helps blood clot) for several days after knee replacement surgery reduces bleeding and improves recovery. It may help patients who have a standard knee replacement and are not on blood thinners.
This study compares different types of collagen supplements to see which one works best for easing knee pain and improving function in people with knee osteoarthritis. If you join, you'll take a supplement for 8 weeks and report how your knees feel.
This trial tests whether a daily collagen supplement can reduce knee pain from osteoarthritis. It aims to help people with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis who are not already taking other joint supplements.
