BIOSURE™ HEALICOIL™ PK Bone In-growth Study
- 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.
