About this study
Official title: Randomized Controlled Study Comparing iASSIST Knee System Versus Conventional Instrumentation
The purpose of this study is to compare the accuracy of knee component alignment between patients operated with iASSIST Knee (Investigational group) versus patients operated without iASSIST Knee (Control group) using the same implant system.
Read the detailed description
Objective: To compare the accuracy of knee component alignment between patients operated with iASSIST Knee (Investigational group) versus patients operated without iASSIST Knee (Control group) using the same implant system.
Endpoint: Primary: The alignment accuracy of the knee femoral and tibial components at 6 months for the investigational group compared to the control group.
Secondary:Health Status after TKA, Operating Room efficiency and Complication rate after TKA for the investigational group compared to the control group.
- Conditions
- Osteoarthritis, Knee
- Being tested
- Persona Knee System, Total Knee Arthroplasty, iAssist Knee
- Medical subject headings
- Osteoarthritis, Knee
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Persona Knee SystemDevice
Also called Persona Knee
Osteoarthritis will be enrolled and randomly assigned into one of two treatment groups. Patients in investigational group will be treated with total knee arthroplasty and the accelerometer-based navigational device. Patients in control group will be treated with total knee arthroplasty with conventional instrumentation.
Total Knee ArthroplastyProcedure or surgery
Also called TKA
Damaged cartilage due to degerative arthritis is replaced by knee joint prosthesis.
iAssist KneeDevice
Osteotomy of TKA is navigated by iAssist system, iAssist requires pin inserted in bone.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Persona with iASSIST Knee | Experimental | Having total knee arthroplasty (Persona Knee System) surgery with the use of a navigation system iASSIST Knee. Receives: Device: Persona Knee System; Procedure: Total Knee Arthroplasty; Device: iAssist Knee |
| Persona without iASSIST Knee | Active comparator | Having total knee arthroplasty surgery (Persona Knee System) with the use of conventional surgical instruments, and without a navigation system iASSIST Knee. Receives: Device: Persona Knee System; Procedure: Total Knee Arthroplasty |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants With Alignment Accuracy of the Knee Femoral Components in Coronal Plain
Ratio of subject, whose knee implant is positioned within 3 degrees from perpendicular to mechanical axis of lower extremity, is compared between groups by CT data taken at 6 month after surgery.
Measured: Postoperative 6 months
Number of Participants With Alignment Accuracy of the Knee Femoral Components in Sagittal Plain
Ratio of subject, whose knee implant is positioned within 3 degrees from perpendicular to mechanical axis of lower extremity, is compared between groups by CT data taken at 6 month after surgery.
Measured: Postoperative 6 months
Number of Participants With Alignment Accuracy of the Knee Tibial Components in Coronal Plain
Ratio of subject, whose knee implant is positioned within 3 degrees from perpendicular to mechanical axis of lower extremity, is compared between groups by CT data taken at 6 month after surgery.
Measured: Postoperative 6 months
Number of Participants With Alignment Accuracy of the Knee Tibial Components in Sagittal Plain
Ratio of subject, whose knee implant is positioned within 3 degrees from preoperatively determined target angle, is compared between groups by CT data taken at 6 month after surgery.
Measured: Postoperative 6 months
Secondary outcomes (8)
Surgery Time
Surgery time from skin incision to closure
Measured: Intraoperative, an average of 2 hours
Number of Instrument Trays Used
Number of instrument trays used instraoperatively. This number includes number of Total Knee Arthroplasty specific instrument tray, does not include other general surgical instruments/kits.
Measured: Intraoperative
KSS - Objective Score at 6 Month Postoperatively
KSS-Objective score is physician-derived component and allows for more than 100 points in patients with greater than 125° of flexion and a stable painless knee as outlined below. Lowest possible score is 0.
Higher score means better outcomes.
Measured: 6 month postoperative
KSS-Patient Satisfaction at 6 Month Postoperatively
KSS-Patient Satisfaction is patient-derived score and is a five-question 40-point scale that is collected preoperatively and at each follow-up visit. Lowest possible score is 0.
Measured: 6 month postoperative
KSS-function Score at 6 Month Postoperatively
KSS-function score is patient-derived score and composed of four subgroups and has a maximum score of 100.
"Walking and Standing" has a maximum value of 30 points, "Standard Activities" has a maximum of 30 points, "Advanced Activities" has a maximum of 25 points and "Discretionary Activities" has a maximum of 15 points.
Lowest possible score is 0. Higher score means better outcomes.
Measured: 6 month postoperative
KSS-Patient Expectations at 6 Month Postoperatively
KSS-Patient Expectations is patient-derived score and is a three-question fifteen-point scale that is collected pre-operatively and post-operatively. The pre-operative questions reflect the patient's opinion on the extent to which the patient expects that operation will improve knee pain, and ability to perform activities of daily living and recreational activities. The post-operative questions reflect the extent to which postoperative outcome has met the patient's pre-operative expectations with respect to pain and function.
The score ranges from 3 to 15. Higher score means better outcomes.
Measured: 6 month postoperative
Oxford Knee Score at 6 Month Postoperatively
Patient Reported Outcome specific for knee disease. Score range from 0 to 48. Higher score means better outcome.
Measured: 6 month postoperative
EQ-5D-3L at 6 Month Postoperatively
EQ-5D is patient reported outcome measure to score patient's health related quality of life with minimum score of -0.111 and maximum score of 1.000.
Higher score means better outcomes.
Measured: 6 month postoperative
