NCT ID NCT07480473
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 09, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at how your sense of joint position, fear of moving, balance, and sensory processing affect recovery after knee osteoarthritis surgery. Researchers will measure these factors in 75 people aged 50-75 who had a total knee replacement 4-6 weeks ago. The goal is to better understand what influences functional recovery, which could help improve future rehabilitation programs.
