Knee surgery recovery and fear of movement study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how fear of movement before knee surgery affects recovery after arthroscopic meniscus surgery. It may help understand why some people have better outcomes than others.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial studies the costs of a common knee surgery for a torn meniscus. It may help if you need surgery to remove part of the meniscus and are otherwise healthy.
This study compares two surgical options for people with ongoing knee pain after having part of their meniscus removed. It tests whether using the patient's own hamstring tendon or a donor meniscus works better to relieve pain and improve function.
This trial tests a new approach to prevent arthritis after surgery to remove part of a torn meniscus. It looks at whether a treatment can stop the knee from wearing down after the operation.
This trial compares different treatments for knee osteoarthritis caused by a tear where the medial meniscus (the inner cushion of your knee) attaches to the bone. It aims to find the best approach to relieve pain and improve function in people with early to moderate arthritis.
This study looks at how well people can use their leg after having meniscus surgery in one knee within the last 5 years. It aims to explore recovery and function.
This study tests a new surgical technique that uses a donor (allograft) bone-patellar tendon-bone graft to fix a torn ACL and also replaces the missing or damaged meniscus. It may help people whose knee problems haven't improved with other treatments and who are otherwise healthy enough for surgery.
