About this study

Official title: Study of Prosthesis in Total Knee Arthroplasty

The purpose of this study is to determine which prosthesis is better in total knee arthroplasty

Read the detailed description

Theoretical advantages of mobile-bearing devices led surgeons to use these prostheses instead of fixed-bearing devices as traditional implants. This study was designed to compare Fixed-bearing versus Mobile-bearing Prosthesis in Total Knee Arthroplasty through a five-year follow-up.

Osteoarthritis
Being tested
fixed-bearing (P.F.C.® Sigma), mobile-bearing (P.F.C.® Sigma)

What is being measured

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

  1. Knee Society Scoring

    was used for evaluating the function of the knee and high scores indicated better knee function

    Measured: five years after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pain

    Pain was evaluated with a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) with scores ranging from zero to 10ten (0 for no pain and 10 for intolerable pain).

    Measured: five years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing fixed-bearing (P.F.C.® Sigma) and mobile-bearing (P.F.C.® Sigma) in people with Osteoarthritis, run by Isfahan University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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 1 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 10 Mar 2011. 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 Iran. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Knee Society Scoring (time frame: five years after surgery). 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 10 Mar 2011.
