What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.

Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Summary

This study tested a noninvasive navigation system that measures how the knee moves before surgery. The goal is to see if this information can help surgeons choose or place knee implants more accurately. 40 adults with end-stage knee osteoarthritis who were scheduled for knee replacement took part. The study focused on whether the system could reliably measure knee kinematics, not on changing treatment or outcomes.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better match knee implants to each patient's anatomy, potentially reducing dissatisfaction after knee replacement surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage validation study with only 40 participants. It measures movement but does not test whether using this system actually improves surgical outcomes.
