Knee injection: comparing two needle angles for knee arthritis pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of giving a knee steroid injection to see which works better for pain and function in people with medial knee arthritis. You will get the injection as part of your normal care.

This study compares two knee injection treatments for knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see which one works better for reducing pain and improving function, so you might experience less knee pain and better mobility.
This study compares two ways to reduce pain during a knee steroid injection: using a thinner needle versus using a cold spray on the skin first. It helps doctors find the most comfortable method for people with knee osteoarthritis.
This study tests an experimental injection called GNSC-001 given directly into the knee to see if it can reduce pain and improve knee function in people with knee osteoarthritis. If you join, you'll have one injection and then be followed for a year, and you'll need to stop your usual knee pain medicines during the study.
This study tests whether a single steroid injection in the healthy knee (the one not being replaced) can reduce pain and improve recovery after total knee replacement. It may help people who have arthritis in both knees but are only having one replaced now.
This study compares two different knee injections—one using your own concentrated bone marrow cells (BMAC) and the other using a steroid (cortisone)—to see which works better for long-term knee pain from osteoarthritis.
This study compares two ways of injecting a steroid medication into arthritic knees: using landmark guidance (traditional method) with a higher dose versus ultrasound guidance (imaging) with a lower dose. The goal is to see which approach works better to reduce knee pain and improve function.
