Mobile Technology to Measure Knee Health in Osteoarthritis
This study is looking at a new way to measure knee health in people with osteoarthritis (OA) using smartphone technology called OpenCap. Researchers want to see if OpenCap can accurately measure how your knee moves during daily activities, similar to more complex lab equipment. They will compare these measurements to your reported symptoms and the structure of your knee joint. The goal is to find better ways to diagnose knee OA earlier, especially in Veterans who experience this condition frequently. You may be able to join if you are a Veteran or non-Veteran, male or female, diagnosed with early knee OA, and have already participated in the "Precision Assessment of Platelet Rich Plasma for Joint Preservation" study (NCT03460236). The study is currently observational, meaning it observes participants without giving new treatments. Success will be determined by how well OpenCap's measurements match traditional methods and patient reports.
- Study design
- This is an observational study with a planned enrollment of 47 participants. It is not specified if it is randomized or blinded.
- What's involved
- Your knee flexion angle will be measured at the beginning of the study (Baseline) and again at Week 1.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Your knee flexion angle will be measured at Baseline and Week 1.
