About this study

Official title: Early Migration in a High Congruent Rotating Platform Total Knee Prosthesis Design. A Synchronised Motion Analysis Study With Fluoroscopy and RSA

The aim of this study is to accurately assess the relationship between knee joint kinematics and migration of the tibial component of a high congruent, rotating platform total knee prosthesis by using fluoroscopy synchronised in time and space with a force plate, an external motion registration system and Electromyography (EMG).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Migration

    Roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis is used to determine the migration of the prosthesis with respect to the bone.

    Measured: 24 months post-operatively

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. anterior-posterior translation patterns

    Fluoroscopy was used to determine the anterior-posterior translation patterns of the femoral component with respect to the tibial component.

    Measured: 6 months post-operatively

  2. Axial rotation patterns

    Fluoroscopy was used to determine the axial rotation patterns of both the insert and the femoral component with respect to the tibial component

    Measured: 6 months post-operatively

  3. Muscle activity

    Bipolar surface EMG data of the flexor and extensor muscles is collected.

    Measured: 6 months post-operatively

  4. Shear forces

    A force plate is used to measure the ground reaction forces which can be used to calculate the shear forces.

    Measured: 6 months post-operatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Leiden University Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Apr 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Migration (time frame: 24 months post-operatively). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Apr 2010.
