Single vs dual task training for knee meniscus tears
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two types of exercise training to improve knee function in people with mild meniscus tears. It aims to see if doing two tasks at once is better than one at a time.

This study compares different treatments for a specific type of knee injury that can lead to arthritis. It aims to find the best way to manage the tear and help keep your knee working well.
This trial compares two ways to treat persistent knee pain after a partial meniscectomy using a tissue graft to replace the missing meniscus – either the patient's own hamstring tendon or a donor meniscus. It may help people whose knee pain continues months after their first surgery.
This trial tests a surgical technique to fix a certain type of meniscus tear (called a root tear) by stitching it to the knee's posterior cruciate ligament. The goal is to see if this approach helps patients recover better.
This study tests a treatment called pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (using magnetic pulses to help knee tissue heal) for people with knee pain from a worn meniscus. It aims to see if this therapy can reduce pain and improve knee function.
This study tests whether specific exercises can improve your knee cartilage health and daily function. It is for people with a meniscus tear who are at risk for knee arthritis but don't have arthritis yet.
This trial compares surgery with non-surgical treatment for a specific tear in the knee's meniscus, the posterior-medial root tear. It aims to find out which approach works better and helps you decide with your doctor.
