This study tests a special therapy plan delivered through video calls to help people recover after knee replacement surgery. It compares telerehabilitation to in-person therapy to see if it improves pain and movement.
This study compares two ways of doing a total knee replacement: with a tourniquet (a tight band to reduce bleeding) or without. It looks at whether using a tourniquet affects recovery and outcomes. This may help you and your doctor choose the best approach for your surgery.
This trial tests whether kinesiotaping, a special tape placed on the skin, can help reduce pain and improve function in people with knee osteoarthritis. If you have mild knee osteoarthritis and are interested in a non-invasive treatment, this might be a good fit.
This study tests whether combining resisted exercise with kinesiology taping (a special tape placed on the skin) can help reduce knee pain and improve daily movement in people with knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see if these treatments together work better than just one alone.
This study tests whether special therapeutic tape (kinesiotape) can help reduce pain and improve function in people with meniscus injuries in the knee. The meniscus is a piece of cartilage that cushions your knee, and this trial sees if the tape can help your body heal without surgery.
