Anatomic Congruent Prosthetic Knee Design

Not Applicable
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Knee Osteoarthritis
Interventions
Device: Medial Congruent
Device: Cruciate Retaining
Registration Number
NCT03633201
Lead Sponsor
University of Aarhus
Brief Summary

This double-blinded randomized control study will use kinematic and kinetic measures to compare an anatomical congruent prosthetic knee design to a standard prosthetic knee design. The patients will be measured pre- and post-operative and compared to a healthy non-osteoarthritis control group.
