Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

PACE is a patient-centered weight loss program that was developed specifically for knee replacements based on input from stakeholders, including knee replacement patients, physical therapists, and orthopedic surgeons. In this pilot study, participants undergoing knee replacement will be randomized to either start a weight loss program before surgery (PACE) or after surgery (Delayed PACE). Both programs will receive a 14-week intervention and complete assessments at baseline (up to 6 weeks prior to surgery), 12 weeks after surgery, and 26 weeks after surgery.
