Navigated knee replacement study for better outcomes
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests a computer-guided system for total knee replacement. It aims to see if using the OrthoPilot® navigation system helps improve surgical precision and long-term results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need to be scheduled for a total knee replacement with the OrthoPilot® navigation system and an Aesculap knee implant.
- You must be able to understand the study and give written consent.
- You need to be willing and able to attend long-term follow-up visits.
- You must be between 18 and 80 years old.
- You cannot be pregnant.
- You cannot have had a previous joint replacement in the same knee.
- Your overall health status must be ASA class 3 or lower (meaning no severe, life-threatening disease).
