Massive study aims to unlock secrets of lasting knee replacements

NCT ID NCT00454467

Summary

This study is gathering long-term information from 3,000 people who get knee replacements at a major hospital. It aims to track how well the new knees work, how long they last, and what factors lead to the best results over many years. Unlike most research that only follows patients for a year or two, this study will follow them for the life of their implant to help doctors make better decisions for future patients.
