BIOSURE™ HEALICOIL™ PK Bone In-growth Study

Completed
Conditions
Deficiency of Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Interventions
Device: BIOSURE™ HEALICOIL™ PK Interference Screw
Registration Number
NCT02382341
Lead Sponsor
Smith & Nephew, Inc.
Brief Summary

The study seeks to document the bone in-growth into the BIOSURE™ HEALICOIL PK screw as measured by CT scans. Patients' improvement in pain and function will also be followed through various outcome measures.

Detailed Description

The primary objective of the current study is to assess bone in-growth in the BIOSURE™ HEALICOIL™ Interference screw in the tibial tunnel of patients undergoing ACL reconstruction with soft tissue grafts; tunnel widening and change in IKDC knee and subjective scores will also be documented.
