NCT07603973 · RECRUITING
Effect of an Information- and Self-management App for People With Knee Osteoarthritis
This trial is testing a smartphone app called Genus that delivers 8 weeks of osteoarthritis education, exercise videos, and quizzes to knee osteoarthritis patients while they wait for a specialist appointment. The goal is to see whether using the app improves their knowledge about the condition and the quality of decisions they make during that consultation. This is a Phase NA trial — it is evaluating a practical digital tool, not a drug or medical procedure.
You may qualify if
- Men and women > 50 years referred to specialist healthcare for knee OA management

- Received joint replacement or are under consideration for revision in the referred joint
