Knee surgery planning using a 3D next-step guidance system
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial studies whether a NextAR system’s planning and gait (walking) analysis can improve how knee replacement surgery is done and how you walk afterward. It’s for adults with severe knee osteoarthritis who are eligible for total knee replacement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have end-stage osteoarthritis in the knee and are a candidate for total knee replacement (TKR)
- You can give consent and participate in the study
- You can attend follow-up visits after surgery
- You have not had prior reconstructive, fracture-related, or joint replacement surgery on the same knee

This study compares two different surgical techniques for total knee replacement to see which one leads to better knee movement and function. If you need a knee replacement due to arthritis, this trial may help find the best approach for your surgery.
This study compares two types of knee replacement implants to see if one provides better walking ability.
This trial is for adults having their first knee replacement surgery. It tests a special part (tibial extension) of a common knee implant system. Researchers will follow participants over time to see how well it works.
This study compares two ways of aligning the knee during a total knee replacement and checks how people walk afterward using a walking test. It may help doctors choose the alignment method that best supports safer, smoother walking.
This study uses ultrasound to create a 3D model of your knee before surgery, which may help the surgeon plan and guide the procedure more precisely. It is for people having knee replacement, realignment, or ACL reconstruction.
This study tracks outcomes after a standard (first-time) total knee replacement using the GMK SpheriKA implant. It mainly looks at how well the knee works in everyday life, including activity and self-checks over time.
