Results Between Robotic-assisted and Manual Total Knee Arthroplasty With Kinematic Alignment (TKA TKR)

March 1, 2026 updated by: Jakub Błaszczyk

Results Between Robotic-Assisted and Manual Total Knee Arthroplasty With Kinematic Alignment

This randomised controlled trial will include patients with end-stage osteoarthritis of the knee undergoing primary TKR. Patients meeting the criteria that consent to be in the study will be randomised at a ratio of 1:1 to either manual TKR or robotic-assisted TKR. The primary objective will assess pre- and postoperative HKA angle, CPAK and range of motion using goniometer to compare two groups.The secondary objectives are to compare patient expectation, functional ability, quality of life using functional 48-point Oxford Knee Score and Forgotten joint score.
