NCT00733330

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this investigation is to compare the precision of long leg alignment achieved by the two types of procedure. The secondary objectives of this investigation are to: Compare the accuracy of long leg alignment achieved by the two types of procedure. Compare the number of optimal implantations achieved by the two types of procedure. Compare the clinical performance of the knee replacement in subjects who have undergone one of the two types of procedure. Compare the functional outcome achieved by subjects who have undergone one of the two types of procedure. Compare the interface radiographic appearance 5 years post-operatively between the two types of procedure. Compare the accuracy and precision of long leg alignment achieved by the two types of procedure 5 years post-operatively, i.e., at final follow-up and also the change in accuracy and precision between the final follow-up and baseline. Compare the Adverse Events experienced by the subjects who have undergone the two types of procedure.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To Compare the Precision of the Long Leg Alignment Between the Between Subjects Who Have Undergone Minimally Invasive vs. Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty.

    Alignment will be measured on long leg weight bearing X-rays performed when the subject has full leg extension (+/-5 degrees)

    6 - 12 Weeks

Secondary Outcomes (38)

  • To Compare the Proportion of Procedures That Fall Within a Satisfactory Alignment Window Between Subjects Who Have Undergone Minimally Invasive vs. Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty.

    operative

  • To Compare the Number of Optimal Implantations Achieved From Pre-op to 6-12 Weeks Between Subjects Who Have Undergone Minimally Invasive vs. Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty.

    4 - 12 Weeks

  • To Compare American Knee Society Knee Score Between Subjects Who Have Undergone Minimally Invasive vs. Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty.

    Pre-op

  • To Compare American Knee Society Knee Score Between Subjects Who Have Undergone Minimally Invasive vs. Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty.

    4 Weeks

  • To Compare American Knee Society Knee Score Between Subjects Who Have Undergone Minimally Invasive vs. Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Male or female subjects aged between 18 and 80 years inclusive.
  • Subjects who require a primary total knee replacement and are considered by the Investigator to be suitable for the specific knee prosthesis identified in the protocol.
  • Subjects who are able to give and have given voluntary, written informed consent to participate in this clinical investigation.
  • Subjects who have given consent to the transfer of his/her information to DePuy.
  • Subjects who, in the opinion of the Clinical Investigator, are able to understand this clinical investigation, co-operate with the investigational procedures and are willing to return to the hospital for all the required post-operative follow-ups.

You may not qualify if:

  • Subjects who have a pre-operative limb deformity of equal to or greater than 10° varus or 15° valgus as defined using the anatomical axis.
  • Subjects who have a fixed flexion contracture of greater than 10º.
  • Subjects who are clinically obese i.e. BMI ≥30.
  • Subjects who have, in the opinion of the Investigator, an existing condition that would compromise their participation and follow-up in this study.
  • Female subjects who are pregnant or lactating.
  • Subjects who are known drug or alcohol abusers or have a psychological disorder that could affect follow-up care or treatment outcomes.
  • Subjects who have participated in a clinical investigation with an investigational product in the last 3 months.
  • Subjects currently involved in any personal injury litigation, medical-legal or worker's compensations claims.
  • Subjects who have previously had a prosthetic knee replacement device (any type) of the affected knee.
  • Subjects who present with ankylosis of the hip joint on the side to be treated or previous ipsilateral Upper Tibial Osteotomy/High Tibial Osteotomy.
