About this study

Official title: Accuracy of MRI-based Patients Matched Instruments and Jig-based Instruments in Total Knee Arthroplasty

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the common and effective procedure for treatment of end-staged knee osteoarthritis. Postoperative alignment of TKA is one of the important factors which effects on survival of prosthesis. High percentage of misalignment has been reported in conventional technique with using the jig based instruments. Several methods and devices were established to solve this problem. Customized or patient matched instruments were the novel technology that made from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of lower limb. With using special software to calculate the alignment axis, it was thought that accurate alignment can be achieved by using this instruments. Therefore, the study aimed to compare the accuracy of MRI based patient matched instruments and jig based instruments in TKA.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Patient matched instruments and Jig based instruments in people with Osteoarthritis of Knee, run by Mahidol University.

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 1 inclusion and 7 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 22 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The alignment of mechanical axis after TKA (time frame: Within 1 month after operation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01449474, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 22 Feb 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
