About this study

Official title: A PROMs Based Educational Tool (PROM-DA) for Patients Considering Total Knee Arthroplasty: Development and a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.

The primary objectives of this study are to: 1) develop an educational tool known as the Patient Reported Outcome Measure informed Decision Aid (PROM-DA) that will describe the options for patients considering total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery, and help them imagine what to expect if they choose either option; 2) assess the extent that the PROM-DA improves patients decision quality; 3) determine the feasibility of a larger trial to test the PROM-DA in multiple sites and more patients.

  5. Values

    HK-DQI

    Measured: Baseline

  6. Decisional conflict

    Decisional Conflict Scale (SURE)

    Measured: Baseline

  7. Treatment Preference

    Single item question: Do you feel the potential benefits of knee replacement surgery outweigh the potential surgical risks?

    Yes No Unsure

    Measured: Baseline

  8. Preference for involvement in decision making

    Control Preferences Scale (CPS)

    Measured: Baseline

  9. Willingness to have surgery

    Single item question: Based on your current understanding of the risks and benefits of knee replacement surgery of your knee arthritis, what is your current preference between having joint replacement surgery or non-surgical treatments?

    I would definitely consider having knee joint replacement surgery now. I would probably consider having knee joint replacement surgery now. I am not sure. I would probably not consider having knee joint replacement surgery now. I would definitely not consider having knee joint replacement surgery now.

    Measured: Baseline

  10. Patient-reported shared decision-making

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Baseline and Follow-up Surveys, Patient Reported Outcome Measure informed Decision Aid and Pamphlet in people with Knee Osteoarthritis and Total Knee Arthroplasty, run by University of Calgary at 1 site in Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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 28 Apr 2020. 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 Canada. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Decision quality (time frame: 40 to 52 weeks after baseline). 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 NCT03240913, 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 28 Apr 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
