Can a faster recovery plan get knee replacement patients home sooner?

NCT ID NCT03869996

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares two approaches to recovery after total knee replacement: a fast track plan designed to speed up recovery versus standard care. Researchers will measure how well patients can move and care for themselves after surgery, as well as how long they stay in the hospital. The goal is to see if the fast track approach leads to better outcomes and shorter hospital stays for people with knee arthritis.
