Can a treadmill 'Trip Test' stop falls after knee surgery?
NCT ID NCT05736666
Summary
This study is testing if a special treadmill training program before knee replacement surgery can help prevent falls in the year after the operation. Researchers will enroll 196 people scheduled for knee replacement and randomly assign them to either receive standard fall-prevention pamphlets or those pamphlets plus a two-week treadmill program that simulates trips and slips. The main goal is to see if the group that does the treadmill training has fewer falls during their recovery year.
