NCT ID NCT06107959
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 25, 2026
Summary
This study tracks how orthopedic surgery changes your resting metabolic rate (the calories you burn at rest) and how long it takes to return to normal. Researchers will measure 100 patients before and after surgery using simple tests like urine samples and a metabolic cart. The goal is to create better nutrition plans for recovery.
