Robot-Assisted joint surgery under the microscope: will it help implants last longer?

NCT ID NCT07647354

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study will follow about 950 people who receive hip or knee replacements using Stryker implants, some with the Mako robotic-arm system and some without. Researchers will track how long the implants last and how well patients feel and function over five years. The goal is to gather real-world data on whether robotic assistance improves outcomes.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Mako Robotic-Arm Assisted System (surgical device)

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could provide real-world evidence on whether robotic-arm assistance improves implant longevity and patient outcomes after joint replacement.

What could go wrong

This is an observational registry, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may be influenced by surgeon skill or patient selection, and long-term follow-up may have dropouts.
