NCT07267962
This randomized, four-arm clinical trial will investigate the effects of large language model (LLM)-assisted exercise prescriptions integrated with conventional physiotherapy on pain, function and quality of life in adults with degenerative knee disease. Participants will be randomly assigned to conventional physiotherapy alone or to conventional physiotherapy plus an exercise program planned with the assistance of ChatGPT-5, Gemini 2.5 Pro, or DeepSeek V3.1. All participants will receive supervised outpatient physiotherapy two times per week for 8 weeks (16 sessions in total). Outcomes will be assessed at baseline and at the end of the 8-week intervention period by physiotherapists blinded to group allocation.
NCT07327190
This single-center randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of motor imagery and action observation training on pain, functionality, balance, and fear of movement in patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The study will be conducted at Simav Doç. Dr. İsmail Karakuyu State Hospital Orthopedics Department with a minimum of 40 participants meeting the inclusion criteria. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: (1) standard physiotherapy, (2) standard physiotherapy plus motor imagery training, or (3) standard physiotherapy plus action observation training. All interventions will last six weeks. Standard physiotherapy will include ankle pumping, active-assisted hip and knee flexion, isometric and stretching exercises, cryotherapy, gait, and stair training. The motor imagery group will perform guided imagery sessions using audio recordings describing the physiotherapy exercises and daily activities. The action observation group will observe exercise videos corresponding to the physiotherapy program. The primary outcomes will include pain, functional level, balance, and kinesiophobia. The study aims to determine whether the addition of mental simulation techniques to standard physiotherapy can enhance postoperative recovery and improve functional outcomes in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.
NCT05566561
Selective blockade of the saphenous nerve branches is among the regional anesthesia techniques in knee surgery. In this block, analgesia is provided without motor block and is an essential advantage in terms of early mobilization in the postoperative period. Blockage of motor branches causes a delay in mobilization and increases the risk of falling. The vastus medialis and its medical femoral cutaneous branch are rich in the femoral triangle. Effective postoperative analgesia is provided by a femoral triangle (triangle) blockade. The intermediate femoral cutaneous nerve courses over the sartorius muscle. Anatomically, the femoral triangle follows a separate path. When the femoral triangle and the blockade of the intermediate femoral cutaneous nerve are combined, it is called PSKB block. Parasartorial compartment block (PSKB); is based on the blockade of the branches of the saphenous nerve, the two largest sensory nerves from the femoral nerve to the knee, and is predicted to provide effective postoperative analgesia in knee arthroplasty.

A 3D Computed Tomographic Study of Vietnamese Knee Morphology for Total knee Replacement
NCT06203483
Knee arthroplasty surgery numbers are increasing depending on joint deformities and cartilage degenerations. Severe postoperative pain may occur in these patients due to surgery and the placed prosthesis. The aim of study is to compare the effectiveness of AKB and PENG block for postoperative analgesia management after knee arthroplasty.
NCT06284824
The goal of this prospective study is to compare two different knee replacement robots. This study will look at patient reported outcome measures and data collected during the operation. The main questions this study aims to answer include: * Will the patient reported outcomes differ between the two groups? * Will the intraoperative data differ between the two groups? Participants will undergo total knee replacement with one of the two robots, complete standardized surveys, and have x-rays taken.

Effect of iPACK block with Adductor Canal Block and ESPB on pain management, and NLR and PLR following knee arthroplasty
NCT05533970
Total knee replacement (TKR) is among the most commonly performed orthopedic procedures, and a six-fold increase in the number of TKR cases world-wide is projected within a decade as the aging of the populations . As the number of the TKR procedures increases, various approaches increasing the satisfaction and comfort of the patient and the surgeon are of interest in order to provide improved pain management, in-hospital stay, and recovery with the development of modern anesthesiology and pain management techniques.This study aimed to investigate the clinical effect of ultrasound-guided high fascia iliaca compartment block(H-FICB) in patients undergoing knee arthroscopy and to compare it with the normal method which is femoral nerve block combined with a sciatic nerve block to choose the better way. A double-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted with 44 patients, aged 18-65 years, ASA I-III, who were scheduled to undergo arthroscopic knee surgery in our hospital were selected, the patients were divided into Group A and Group B by random number table method, with 22 patients in each group. Group A was subjected to the H-FICB under ultrasound guidance before general anesthesia, given 0.375% ropivacaine+0.5ug/kg Dexmedetomidine 30 ml. Group B was subjected to the H-FICB under ultrasound guidance before general anesthesia, given 0.375% ropivacaine+1ug/kg Dexmedetomidine 30 ml. The mini-mental State Examination was used to assess all the patients' primary cognitive status one day before surgery. The initial acting time and the degrees of sensory block and motor block were recorded after the nerve block was completed. Perioperative variables were recorded to be compared. The investigators used the visual analog scale to assess patients' pain degree with postoperative, recorded the occurrence of adverse events such as postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV), delayed emergence from anesthesia, and respiratory depression. The confusion assessment method was used to assess whether patients experienced delirium.

The main purpose of this study is to look at whether meditation techniques can help reduce pain and opioid use after surgery.
NCT04321629
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled study. The purpose of this study is to assess functional and clinical changes among patients with symptomatic knee OA treated with intra-articular injections of autologous adipose tissue or PRP and to compare the efficacy of both therapeutic methods. We hypothesize that adipose tissue injections will improve patients' quality of life and functional status and will decrease pain level significantly more than PRP injections. In addition to the functional tests and muscle strength measurement, the patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) of the knee joint function and quality of life will be used to assess each participant. The same inclusion criteria have been established for an Experimental Group (subjects treated with autologous fat tissue) and a Control Group (subjects treated with PRP). Those criteria consist of: symptomatic knee OA, age between 45 and 65 y.o., Kellgren- Lawrence grades I - III OA, no or minimal positive effects of previous conservative treatment (rehabilitation, hyaluronic acid injections, steroid injections). Those patients who meet inclusion criteria will be allocated to Fat Tissue Group or PRP Group randomly. Patients will be assessed five times: before treatment and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after the treatment. The PROMs consist of the four questionnaires: The Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), International Knee Documentation Committee 2000 (IKDC 2000), the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) (21,22), the Health Questionnaire EQ- 5D- 5L. Moreover, three functional tests will be performed to assess patient's functional status: The Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), The 5 Times Sit to Stand Test (5xSTS), The 10m Walk Test (10mWT). To assess strength parameters of the knee flexors and extensors the Maximal Voluntary Isometric Contraction (MVIC) will be measured. Each test will be supervised by the same one physiotherapist to avoid any interexaminer bias and discrepancies during testing.
