RSA of the ATTUNE Knee System: RCT Comparing Traditional Vs Enhanced-Fixation Device Designs

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Knee Osteoarthritis
Interventions
Device: ATTUNE S+ PS Knee
Device: ATTUNE PS Knee
Registration Number
NCT03554720
Lead Sponsor
Canadian Radiostereometric Analysis Network
Brief Summary

The principal objective of this study is to compare migration patterns between the Attune and Attune S+ PS knee systems using model-based RSA over the first 2 post-operative years. Secondary objectives include; comparison of 2-year migration values against published thresholds for adequate short-term fixation, quantify changes in functional and health status of subjects following surgery and compare between study groups, and assess occurrences of complications following surgery.

Detailed Description

This is a multi-centre, randomized controlled trial of patients undergoing posterior-stabilized total knee arthroplasty. In this study, the investigators propose to randomize 50 subjects to receive either the standard Attune PS TKA (n=25) or the enhanced fixation Attune S+ PS TKA (n=25) and follow them for a period of 2 years post-operatively. The primary outcome of the study will be stability of fixation of the tibial baseplate as measured by model-based RSA. Secondary outcomes will be to determine the functionality of patients after surgery using self-reported questionnaires.

Primary Outcome Measures

RSA Migration2 Years

Migration of the tibial and femoral components between the 2 device designs.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
European Quality of Life (EQ-5D-5L)Preoperative, 6 Weeks, 3 Months, 6 Months, 1 Year and 2 Years

Evaluate and compare the change from preoperative to 2 years between the study groups timepoints in functional outcomes assessments. The EuroQol 5D 5L questionnaire is a standardized instrument for use as a measure of health outcome that is designed for completion by the subject.

Pain scorePreoperative, 6 Weeks, 3 Months, 6 Months, 1 Year and 2 Years

Evaluate and compare the change from preoperative to 2 years between the study groups timepoints in patient reported satisfaction as measured using the visual analogue scale (VAS) from 0 (No pain) - 100 (Worst pain imaginable)

Patient satisfactionPreoperative, 6 Months, 1 Year and 2 Years

Evaluate and compare the change from preoperative to 2 years between the study groups timepoints in patient reported pain severity as measured using the visual analogue scale (VAS) from 0 (Unsatisfied) - 100 (Completely satisfied)

Oxford 12 KneePreoperative, 6 Weeks, 3 Months, 6 Months, 1 Year and 2 Years

Evaluate and compare the change from preoperative to 2 years between the study groups timepoints in functional outcomes assessments, patient reported outcome

University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) Activity Level scalePreoperative, 6 Months, 1 Year and 2 Years]

Evaluate and compare the change in UCLA activity score compared to baseline in the study cohort. UCLA activity scores range from 1 to 10, and is a measure of activity with 10 being most active.

Pre-operative Patient's Knee Implant Performance (PKIP)Preoperative, 6 Months, 1 Year and 2 Years

The Pre-surgical and/or Post-surgical Patient's Knee Implant Performance (PKIP) questionnaire is a patient reported questionnaire that consists of 24 questions relating to the patient's awareness of their knee. Questions include the patient's self-confidence about the current status of their knee performance, stability, and overall satisfaction. Each question has a 5, 6 or 10 Likaert- like response option.

Knee Replacement Expectation Survey (KRES)Preoperative

The KRES is a patient reported questionnaire that consists of 19 questions. The questions ask how each expectation is important in the treatment of the knee. The scale is rated: 1 (Very important) to 5 (This does not apply to me). The score ranges from 19 to 95 with higher scores associated with higher expectations.

Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS)Preoperative and 1 Year

The patient are asked to indicate the degree to which they have the above thoughts and feelings when they are experiencing pain. Each PCS item is rated on a 5-point scale: 0 (not at all) to 4 (all the time). The PCS total score is computed by summing responses to the 13 items. PCS total scores range from 0 - 52.

Patient complicationsPreoperative, 1 Week, 6 Weeks, 3 Months, 6 Months, 1 Year and 2 Years

Evaluate the type and frequency of the complications/adverse events.
