About this study

Official title: Scorpio PS vs Scorpio NRG PS - Total Knee Arthroplasty Comparative Investigation of Function

Single-centre, prospective, randomized comparative study to compare the maximum flexion and Chair Raise achievement ratios of the Scorpio PS and and the Scorpio NRG PS. Documentation of all complications.

Read the detailed description

Surveillance design: Single-centre, prospective, randomized comparative study. Objectives: To compare the maximum flexion (active and passive) and Chair Raise achievement ratios. All complications will be documented.

Number of subjects to be enrolled: All consecutive Scorpio patients are included until a group size of 88 is reached.

Clinical evaluations: Chair raise test, Stair climb test, Western Ontario McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) patient self evaluation, EuroQuol - 5 dimension (EQ-5D) patient questionnaire. Standard clinical, functional and pain parameters (Knee Society Score), pre-operatively and post-operatively. All per- and post-op complications.

Being tested
Scorpio PS (posterior stable), Scorpio NRG PS

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of Maximum Passive and Active Flexion.

    Comparison of maximum flexion, both passive and active between Scorpio NRG PS knee prosthesis and the Scorpio PS knee prosthesis.

    The active flexion-tolerated range is greater/equal 70 degree. The passive flexion-tolerated range is greater/equal 80 degree. The Hyperextension tolerated range is 0 to 10 degree. Higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: 5 years follow-up

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Knee Society Score (KSS)

    The Knee Society Clinical Rating System is comprised of two distinct sub-scores: one for pain, range of motion (ROM) and joint stability, and one for functional parameters. Sub-scores range from a potential minimum score of 0 to a maximum score of 100 points. Although the specific scores are not distinguished as "excellent," "good," "fair," or "poor," a higher value represents a better outcome.

    Measured: pre-operative, 6, 12, 26 weeks and 1, 2 and 5 years follow-up

  2. Chair Raise Test

    A measurement to assess functional lower extremity strength. The participant is seated on a chair. Arms are crossed at the wrists and held against the chest. The participant is instructed to arise from an adjustable chair with the knees in a 90 degree angle (measurement with Goniometer) without using arms.

    Measured: pre-operative, 6, 12, 26 weeks and 1, 2 and 5 years follow-up

  3. WOMAC Patient Questionnaire

    The WOMAC collects information specific to osteoarthritis outcomes. The patient response questionnaire uses a visual analog scale for pain, measuring factors of general pain, stiffness, and function. Each question is scored from 0 to 4 for each set of factors, with 0 indicating no pain, stiffness, or limited in function, and 4 indicating extreme pain stiffness, or limited in function. Total WOMAC scores range from 0 to 96 wit lower values representing better outcomes.

    Measured: pre-operative, 12, 26 weeks and 1, 2 and 5 years follow-up

  4. EQ-5D (Euro-Quol 5-Dimension) Patient Questionnaire

    The EQ-5D is a subject-completed questionnaire designed to assess subject health state values. The EQ-5D descriptive system comprises the following five dimensions: mobility self care, usual activities, pain/comfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 3 levels indicating no problems, some problems or extreme problems. The index values on a scale between -1 (low) and 1 (high) are showing the average health status according to the 5 dimensions: A low score shows worse health and a high score shows better health.

    Measured: pre-operative, 12, 26 weeks and 1, 2 and 5 years follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Scorpio PS (posterior stable) and Scorpio NRG PS in people with Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee, run by Stryker Orthopaedics at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 7 inclusion and 9 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 22 Feb 2024. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Sep 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Comparison of Maximum Passive and Active Flexion. (time frame: 5 years follow-up). 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 22 Feb 2024.
