Knee alignment study for total knee replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
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 ways to do knee replacement surgery: one using a robot and one using a hand-held tool called a caliper. Both aim to put the new knee in a position that matches your natural anatomy, which may lead to a better feeling knee.
This study looks at patients getting total knee replacement to treat severe knee arthritis. It follows participants over time to understand outcomes.
This study compares how well the knee is aligned after robotic-assisted knee replacement versus traditional manual knee replacement. It may help patients with osteoarthritis who are scheduled for knee surgery understand if the robotic approach improves alignment and outcomes.
This study compares two ways to align a total knee replacement (mechanically vs. kinematically) to see which leads to better function one year after surgery. If you've had a knee replacement a year ago and are generally healthy enough to walk without major issues from other leg joints or nervous system problems, you might be eligible.
This study tests different surgical alignment techniques during total knee replacement (a surgery to replace a damaged knee joint) for patients with knee arthritis. Researchers want to see if certain alignment methods improve how well your knee works after surgery.
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.
