NCT ID NCT05290818
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two types of knee replacement surgery for people with advanced knee arthritis: a standard total knee replacement and a robotic-assisted partial knee replacement. The goal is to see which one leads to better knee function and is more cost-effective. About 159 adults aged 50 to 75 who are already scheduled for knee replacement will take part.
