Cryoablation benefits in knee replacement surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if a special cold treatment (cryoablation) can help reduce pain or improve recovery for people getting knee replacement surgery for arthritis. It might offer an extra option to feel better after the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are planning to have knee replacement surgery for arthritis (osteoarthritis or inflammatory arthritis).
- Your doctor has cleared you for surgery and you have a scheduled date.
- You do not have a condition made worse by cold, such as Raynaud's disease or cold urticaria.
- Your surgery is not for a broken bone, infection, or cancer.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether applying cold therapy (cryotherapy) after knee replacement surgery helps patients need fewer opioid pain medications than standard care alone. If cryotherapy works, it could help you manage pain more safely after surgery.
This study compares different cold therapy programs to see which works best for pain and swelling after total knee replacement. Everyone in the study receives cold therapy, and the researchers will track recovery outcomes.
This study tests a procedure called cryoneurolysis (using cold to temporarily numb nerves) to see if it helps reduce pain after ACL knee surgery. If you are scheduled for ACL reconstruction, this might help you recover with less discomfort.
This trial tests a cold therapy approach (cryopressotherapy) to improve recovery after total knee replacement. It may help reduce pain and swelling so you can move better sooner.
This study compares two ways to reduce pain and swelling after total knee replacement: a special cold wrap (cryocuff) versus a standard ice pack. You'll help researchers understand which method works better for your recovery.
This study tests a freezing treatment (cryoneurolysis) to numb the nerves around your hip or knee before surgery. The goal is to reduce pain and make the wait for surgery more comfortable.
