ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is looking to understand how patients feel about the information they receive after having total knee replacement surgery, also known as total knee arthroplasty. Researchers want to talk to people who are recovering from this surgery to learn about their experiences and how well they understand the information given to them during their recovery. The study will involve interviews where participants can share their thoughts and feelings, helping researchers gather valuable insights.
To participate in this study, you need to be an adult who has had a total knee replacement due to knee osteoarthritis and is currently in rehabilitation. Unfortunately, if you've had a previous joint replacement in your hip or knee, you won't be eligible for this trial. It's important to note that the study is not yet recruiting participants, so it will start at a later date. By taking part in this study, you'll help improve the support and information provided to future patients after their knee surgeries.
