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 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 trial compares custom-made knee replacements (built to fit your unique knee shape) with standard, off-the-shelf knee replacements. It aims to see if a custom implant leads to better function and satisfaction after surgery.
This study compares two different techniques (mechanical alignment vs. kinematic alignment) used during knee replacement surgery with a special knee system. It aims to see which technique leads to better results for patients.
This study compares two types of knee implants (SpheriKA and Origin) used in total knee replacement surgery with a specific alignment technique. The goal is to see which one may lead to better outcomes for patients needing a first knee replacement.
