Robotic surgery for total knee replacement in arthritis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial studies whether robotic-assisted surgery can improve or standardize outcomes for people getting a total knee replacement for severe arthritis. It may help by using a robot to assist during the knee operation, but you must meet specific knee and health criteria.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for an elective first total knee replacement for end-stage arthritis
- Your knee surgeon says you can have a cruciate-retaining knee implant (not all implants qualify)
- You are at least 18 years old (and typically no older than about 80 at the time of surgery)
- You can understand the study and sign written consent (and answer questionnaires)
- You can follow the study steps, including having any required CT scans
- You do not need a kneecap (patella) resurfacing as part of your planned surgery

This study compares two ways to perform knee replacement surgery for osteoarthritis: traditional manual surgery versus robotic-assisted surgery. Both are standard approaches; the trial tests whether robotic guidance improves how well your knee works after surgery.
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 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.
This study compares two types of robot-assisted total knee replacement systems to see if one offers better outcomes. If you have knee arthritis and are planning a knee replacement, you may be able to join and help determine the best approach.
This study compares two types of knee replacement implants used with robotic-assisted surgery. The goal is to find out which implant gives better pain relief, movement, and long-term results for people with knee arthritis.
This study looks at knee replacement surgery done with digital tools like robots or computer guidance. It may help people with knee arthritis find better ways to have surgery and recover.
