NCT ID NCT05190666
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a weight loss program designed for adults who have had a knee replacement can help them lose weight, be more active, and have less pain and better function. About 182 overweight or obese adults who had knee replacement within the last 6 months will take part. The program is compared to a standard chronic disease self-management program to see which works better and is more cost-effective.
