New wheeled tool aims to get knee replacement patients moving faster
NCT ID NCT06080152
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study looks at whether a new wheeled mobility tool helps people move around more easily after total knee replacement. About 19 adults aged 18-99 who can walk with at most a cane or crutch before surgery will use the device. Researchers will track how much they use it and measure pain and knee function for 3 months after surgery.
