Stem cells aim to speed up knee surgery recovery

NCT ID NCT04650568

Summary

This study is testing whether adding a patient's own stem cells during ACL reconstruction surgery helps the new ligament heal faster and stronger. It will enroll 100 adults with recent ACL tears who are scheduled for surgery. Researchers will use MRI scans and patient surveys to compare healing and recovery between those who receive the stem cell treatment and those who have standard surgery.
