Detailed Description

Evaluation of the effect of the component design on functional performance by comparing postoperative Knee Society Scores (KSS) with preoperative.

Evaluate post-operative radiographic findings. Evaluate the effect of component design on patient activity by comparing postoperative Lower Extremity Activity Scale (LEAS) with preoperative.

Evaluate patient satisfaction using Short-Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36). Evaluate quality of life using Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) and EuroQuol-5 dimension patient questionaire (EQ-5D).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Investigation of Clinical Performance and Patient Outcome With the Short Form - 36 Health Survey (SF-36)Pre-operative, 3 months,1, 3, 5 and optional 7 years

The SF-36 is a 36-item patient completed questionnaire to measure general health and well-being. It includes physical and mental status component sub scores (physical function, physical role functioning, body pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, emotional role, mental health); each ranging from 0-100. Low values represent a poor health state and high values represent a good health state.

Investigation of Clinical Performance and Patient Outcome With the Lower Extremity Activity Scale (LEAS) Patient QuestionnairePre-operative, 3 months,1, 3, 5 and optional 7 years

The LEAS is completed by the participant to assess activity level. Activity levels were ordered in terms of intensity from 1 to 18, with 18 indicating the highest activity level.

Investigation of Clinical Performance and Patient Outcome With the EuroQuol-5 Dimension Health Questionnaire (EQ-5D).Pre-operative, 3 months,1, 3, 5 and optional 7 years

The EuroQol-5 Dimension (EQ-5D) is a subject-completed questionnaire designed to assess subject health state values. The EQ-5D consists of 2 areas; EQ-5D descriptive system and the visual analogue scale (VAS). 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.

With the EQ VAS the respondents can report their perceived health status with a grade ranging from 0 (the worst possible health status) to 100 (the best possible health status).

Investigation of Clinical Performance and Patient Outcome With the Knee Society Score (KSS)Pre-operative, 3 months, 1, 3, 5 and optional 7 years

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.

Investigation of Clinical Performance and Patient Outcome With the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Patient Questionnaire.Pre-operative,1, 5 and optional 7 years

KOOS consists of 5 subscales: Pain, other symptoms, function in daily living , function in sport and recreation and knee related quality of life (QOL). The previous week is the time period considered when answering the questions. Standardized answer options are given (5 Likert boxes) and each question is assigned a score from 0 to 4. A normalized score (100 indicating no symptoms and 0 indicating extreme symptoms).
