Kinematics After Total Knee Arthroplasty

Not Applicable
Withdrawn
Conditions
Osteoarthritis, Knee
Interventions
Device: DePuy ATTUNE total knee arthroplasty system
Registration Number
NCT03093077
Lead Sponsor
Kristin Zhao, PhD
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare implant kinematics of conventional mechanically aligned and anatomically aligned total knee arthroplasties (TKA) at 1 year post-operatively.

Detailed Description

Participants will be randomized to receive a primary TKA using either an anatomic alignment or a conventional mechanical alignment technique.

Participants will undergo a kinematic analysis of a deep knee bend using single-plane fluoroscopy at 1 year post-operatively. The primary outcome will be based on the 6 degree of freedom kinematics and associated joint component proximity during the knee bend task. Secondary outcomes include the Knee Society Score, the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, and the Forgotten Knee Score.

GroupInterventionDescription
Anatomic alignmentDePuy ATTUNE total knee arthroplasty systemThe aim of anatomic alignment is to recreate an individual's pre-operative alignment using the DePuy ATTUNE total knee arthroplasty system.
Mechanical alignmentDePuy ATTUNE total knee arthroplasty systemThe aim of mechanical alignment is to achieve a neutral mechanical alignment regardless of pre-operative status, using the DePuy ATTUNE total knee arthroplasty system.
