Ankle replacement study checks if Non-Designer surgeons get same results

NCT ID NCT07168330

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study follows 100 people who had total ankle replacement for arthritis. Researchers want to see if the implants last 10 years and how well patients do when the surgery is performed by surgeons who did not design the implant. Participants will have regular check-ups, X-rays, and questionnaires. The goal is to understand if results are consistent across different surgeons.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that ankle replacements done by regular surgeons work as well as those done by the implant's designers, helping more people get reliable treatment.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a test of a new treatment. It simply measures outcomes, so it won't directly improve care. Results may take years and might not apply to all patients.
