Comparing two robotic knee replacement techniques
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways of doing robotic-assisted knee replacement surgery: a standard approach versus one using a smaller incision with a modified pin placement. The goal is to see if the less invasive technique leads to better recovery and outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Have be diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis that needs a knee replacement
- Your body mass index must be below 30
- Be able to bend your knee at least 90 degrees (right angle)
- No prior surgery on the same knee

This study compares two ways to perform knee replacement surgery for osteoarthritis: traditional manual surgery versus robotic-assisted surgery. Both are standard approaches; the trial tests whether robotic guidance improves how well your knee works after surgery.
This trial compares robotic-assisted knee replacement with the usual (non-robotic) approach for people with severe arthritis on the inner (medial) side of the knee. It aims to see which method works better for pain and function while matching the right knee anatomy for certain implant types.
This study tests if robot-assisted total knee replacement surgery is safe and effective. It may help people who need knee replacement surgery by using advanced technology for more precise implant placement.
This study compares two ways of performing total knee replacement surgery: one using a robotic assistant and the other using traditional techniques. The goal is to see if robotic-assisted surgery leads to better outcomes for patients.
This study compares two ways of performing total knee replacement surgery: one where the surgeon uses a robotic arm to guide the cutting, and one where the surgeon works by hand. The goal is to see if the robotic method leads to better implant placement and recovery.
This study compares two modern ways of doing knee replacement: robot-assisted surgery versus a custom-made implant tailored to your knee shape. It aims to see which approach leads to better recovery and function for people with osteoarthritis.
