About this study

Official title: Efficacy of STABL Virtual Rehabilitation: A Randomized Controlled Study

The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy of STABL rehabilitation vs in-person rehabilitation following meniscectomy or synovectomy. STABL is a digital health platform that uses computer-vision technology to facilitate at-home post-op recovery for patients while enabling remote monitoring by their surgeon.

Read the detailed description

Patients undergoing minor knee procedures (defined as meniscectomy and synovectomy) will be randomized to virtual rehabilitation using the STABL platform or standard physical therapy over the course of 6 weeks to determine any possible difference in clinical outcomes.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • STABL Virtual RehabilitationBehavioural

    STABL is a digital health platform that uses computer-vision technology to facilitate at-home post-op recovery for patients while enabling remote monitoring by their surgeon. The platform is fully HIPAA compliant.

    STABL analyzes a patient's biomechanics in real time while they perform their recovery exercises to provide them with cues to ensure the exercises are done correctly and track adherence. They then relay all the data to the patient's clinician to allow them to monitor their recovery remotely, address any adherence barriers, and mitigate readmission risks that arise in a more timely manner.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Pain Subscale

    PROM is measured using a goniometer (protractor that measures joint angles) to see how far the knee can bend and straighten when moved by an external force. Normal ROM at the knee is considered to be 0 degrees of extension (completely straight knee joint) to 135 degrees of flexion (fully bent knee joint).

    Measured: Baseline, Month 6

  26. Change in Passive Range of Motion (PROM)

    PROM is measured using a goniometer (protractor that measures joint angles) to see how far the knee can bend and straighten when moved by an external force. Normal ROM at the knee is considered to be 0 degrees of extension (completely straight knee joint) to 135 degrees of flexion (fully bent knee joint).

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12

  27. Change in ACL-Return to Sport (ACL-RSI) Scale Score

    The ACL-RSI scale includes 12 questions on the patient's emotional well-being and confidence in his or her performance and risk appraisal. The scale, with scores ranging from 1 to 10, includes 5 questions on emotional well-being, 5 questions on confidence in physical performance, and 2 questions on the appraisal of risk. Higher scores indicate a more positive psychological response. The total score is determined by adding the values of the 12 responses and then calculating their relationship to 100 to obtain a percentage (0-100%).

    Measured: Baseline, Week 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing STABL Virtual Rehabilitation in people with Physical Therapy, run by NYU Langone Health at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Feb 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Pain Subscale (time frame: Baseline, Week 3). The study lists 27 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Feb 2026.
