ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a new type of knee surgery called robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA). The goal is to see how safe and effective this surgery is when using advanced robotic technology, specifically the Skywalker system, along with a special type of knee implant called the Evolution Medial Pivot (eMP) knee. Researchers want to compare how well this robotic method works compared to traditional surgical techniques and other knee implants.
To participate in this trial, you need to be at least 18 years old and have certain knee problems, such as arthritis or deformities. It's important that you can walk independently and attend follow-up appointments after the surgery. If you join the study, you will sign a consent form and receive close monitoring throughout the process. The trial is currently looking for participants, so if you or a family member are considering knee surgery, this could be a great opportunity to explore a potentially innovative treatment option.
