Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this prospective, non-randomized, multicenter clinical trial is to determine whether robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty performed with TSolution One® System is safe and effective for use as an alternative to the conventional manual techniques. Clinical and radiographic outcomes for robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty performed with the TSolution One® System will be collected preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively up to a follow-up period of no less than 6 months and no more than 12 months. These outcomes will be compared to the ones reported in the literature for conventional manual techniques.
Detailed Description
This clinical investigation will be conducted as a prospective, non-randomized, multicenter study. The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the TSolution One System is safe and effective for use as an alternative to manual planning and sawing/cutting techniques. The primary effectiveness objective of this study is to demonstrate that the TSolution One® System is effective for use as an alternative to manual planning and sawing/cutting techniques by comparing the rate of malalignment for mechanical axis greater than 3° at 3 months to the rate reported in the literature (i.e. 32%) and to demonstrate significant clinical benefit by reducing the number of malaligned patients by at least 50% (i.e. from 32% to ≤ 16%). The safety objective of this study is based on the rate of intraoperative and postoperative TKA complications, with a follow-up period of no less than 6 months and no more than 12 months, and to compare this rate to the rate reported in the literature. The secondary objective of this study is to summarize the distribution of improvements in patients' self-reported assessment of postoperative function and quality-of-life from baseline to a maximum of 12 months. Additionally, other preoperative planning alignment goals (e.g. Knee V-V Alignment; Femoral Joint Line Alignment Angle; Tibial Joint Line Alignment Angle; Tibial Slope Angle) will be compared to the post-operative alignment at 3 months. Investigators will recruit subjects from patients in their practice who require unilateral total knee arthroplasty. Patients will be screened to identify eligible candidates based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. A total of one hundred fifteen (115) patients will be enrolled in the study across the participating sites. All patients will sign an informed consent form prior to participating in the study. Prior to undergoing the investigational procedure, the patients will complete baseline surveys of function and quality of life (Knee Society Score survey and the SF-12 Health Survey) and have baseline radiographs and a CT scan of the knee. Each patient will then undergo robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty with the TSolution One® System. The investigators will evaluate intra- and postoperative complications. Postoperative radiographs and a CT scan will be used to measure limb alignment using a standardized radiographic evaluation protocol. Each patient will complete a postoperative Knee Society Score survey and the SF-12 Health Survey to assess functional outcomes and quality-of-life following the investigational procedure.
Investigators
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •At least 21 years of age.
- •Skeletally mature, as evidenced by closed epiphyses.
- •Eligible for primary unilateral TKA due to osteoarthritis defined radiographically by a Kellgren-Lawrence Grade of 3 or higher.
- •Able to understand and willing to comply with the requirements of the study.
- •Able to give voluntary, written informed consent to participate and has signed an Informed Consent Form specific to this study.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Has undergone previous open knee surgery in the operative knee.
- •Has a body mass index (BMI) \> 40 kg/m
- •Is a candidate for bilateral TKA.
- •Has a coronal deformity greater than 20° or a sagittal flexion contracture greater than 15°.
- •Has an active systemic infection or an active local infection in or near the operative knee joint, or has a previous history of joint infection.
- •Has a pathological skeletal condition or skeletal immaturity which would significantly compromise the ability of the bone to withstand the stress required for preparation of the bones and proper implantation of the prostheses (e.g., severe osteoporosis, Paget's disease, renal osteodystrophy, AVN, sickle cell disease, etc.).
- •Has femoral or tibial bone stock that is of poor quality or inadequate to provide stability for femoral or tibial fixation.
- •Has any type of metallic implant in the operative leg.
- •Has a known or suspected sensitivity to any of the materials in the investigational device or implant components (i.e. cobalt, chromium, titanium, stainless steel, titanium nitride, aluminum, polyethylene, PVC plastic)
- •Has a systemic illness or a neuromuscular, neurosensory, or musculoskeletal deficiency that would render the patient unable to perform appropriate postoperative rehabilitation.
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Percentage of Patients With Postoperative Coronal Limb Alignment More Than ±3 Deg From the Planned Coronal Limb Alignment
Time Frame: 3 months follow-up
Comparison between planned and postoperative coronal limb alignment assessed as the difference between the planned hip-knee-ankle angle and the achieved hip-knee-ankle angle after surgery.
Adverse Events
Time Frame: Up to 12 months follow-up
Adverse events will be assessed as the percentage of patients with TCAT (TSolutionOne Computer Assisted Tool)-assisted implantation experiencing the composite safety endpoint of typical adverse events
