简要总结
Analyze clinical data for a group of subjects implanted with a new surgical device designed to reduce the incidence of patellar crepitus following PCL-substituting TKA and compare that to a control group of subjects implanted with a TKA design known to have an incidence of patellar crepitus of approximately 5%.
详细描述
Patellar crepitus and clunk following posterior cruciate substituting total knee arthroplasty is a persistent problem with a reported incidence as high as 14%. The development of this complication necessitates additional surgery in some patients. Numerous etiologies have been reported including design of the femoral component. Due to a higher than desired incidence of patellar crepitus with the PFC Sigma PS TKA, design modifications of the trochlear groove of the femoral component were introduced with the release of the PFC Sigma HP PS femoral component. The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the incidence of patellar crepitus after posterior cruciate substituting TKA utilizing the PFC Sigma vs. the PFC Sigma HP PS femoral components.

结局指标
主要结局
Evaluate for the Incidence of Patellar Crepitus Requiring Non-operative vs. Operative Treatment of Both the Study and Control Groups at a Minimum of 12 Months Following the TKA (Total Knee Arthroplasty) Procedure in Each Subject.
时间窗: Two years after TKA (Total Knee Arthroplasty) procedure
The incidence of patellar crepitus and clunk will be statistically compared between the study (PFC Sigma HP PS TKA) and control (PFC Sigma PS TKA groups). Based on a strength analysis to determine a theoretical reduction in the incidence of patellar crepitus from 5% to 2%, a study group of 625 subjects in both the control and study ggroups will be required. Each group will also be statistically analyzed using the following variables: overall crepitus incidence, incidence of crepitus requiring only non-operative treatment vs. those requiring operative treatment to manage this complication.
