Comparing knee surgery outcomes with special fabric products
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares how well people do after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery, with or without also repairing the meniscus, using a special fabric product. It aims to see if the fabric helps improve recovery and outcomes for people with these common knee injuries.

This trial studies whether adding mesenchymal stem cells during ACL (knee ligament) reconstruction helps the knee heal better. You might be eligible if your ACL injury is recent and you’re having a specific type of graft surgery.
This study tests a new, lab-grown ligament made from biological tissue for ACL reconstruction. It may offer a regenerative option for people with a recent ACL tear who need surgery.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for ACL reconstruction. The standard method repairs the ACL inside the knee joint, while the new method also adds extra support outside the joint. The study aims to see which approach gives better stability and recovery for people with specific risk factors, like being a young athlete or having a chronic ACL tear.
This trial tests a special sleeve designed to help reduce pain and improve recovery after knee surgery for a torn meniscus. It may be a good option if you are having this type of knee surgery and are in generally good health.
This study compares two different tools used during ACL repair surgery—one is a new, smaller scope—to see if the smaller one helps you recover faster or feel better after surgery. If you have a torn ACL and need surgery, this trial could show whether a less invasive approach works as well or better.
This study is testing Incrediwear recovery products (like sleeves or wraps) to see if they help reduce pain and swelling and improve healing after ACL repair. If you're having ACL surgery and meet the health requirements, you may be able to join.
