Remote rehabilitation with a wearable device after knee surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a smart wearable device for remote rehabilitation at home helps you recover better after knee surgery for a discoid meniscus. You would do exercises guided by the device, and doctors can monitor your progress remotely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 10 and 60 years old.
- You need a confirmed discoid meniscus injury (a thicker, disc-shaped cartilage in the knee) seen on an MRI or during surgery.
- You must have had a specific type of knee surgery called arthroscopic partial meniscectomy with saucerization and suturing.
- You cannot have other injuries in the same knee, like ligament tears, fractures, or cartilage damage.
- You should not have severe arthritis (grade III or higher) in the knee.
- You must not have had previous trauma or surgery in other leg joints (like ankle or hip) that could affect how you walk.

This trial is for children who have a painful discoid meniscus (a cartilage in the knee) confirmed by an orthopedic exam and MRI. It tests whether a specific study approach can help symptoms in children, while avoiding people who may need different knee treatments.
This trial tests a wearable-device remote rehabilitation system for people who have had a first-time rotator cuff tear repaired. It may help you recover at home after surgery.
This study tests a wearable device that helps with knee exercises after knee replacement surgery, aiming to improve movement and strength. It may help you recover better and faster.
This trial tests a remote monitoring program for people having knee replacement surgery. It uses a smartphone app to track your recovery, so you can stay in touch with your care team without needing extra clinic visits.
This study tests whether a remote physical therapy program using a mobile app can help people recover after surgery to rebuild the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the knee. It compares guided at-home exercises to standard care, aiming to make rehab easier and more accessible.
This study tests a hybrid telerehabilitation program for people with anterior knee pain. It combines at-home exercises with remote physiotherapy sessions using a smartphone app. The goal is to see if this approach is effective in routine clinical practice.
