  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Internal database of prior total knee replacement patients.

Who may be able to join

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of antero-posterior stability of the knee with stress x-rays.

    Antero-posterior stability of the knee will be measured with stress x-rays using the TELOS Stress device in 45° and 90° flexion. Stress x-rays will be obtained during a single visit for subjects 1 year or greater post-operatively.

    Measured: 1 year post-operative

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Knee Society Score (KSS)

    Clinical outcomes will be evaluated via the Knee Society Score (KSS) obtained during a single visit for subjects 1 year or greater post-operatively. The KSS is subdivided into a Knee Assessment score which rates only the knee joint itself, and a Functional Assessment score which rates the subject's ability to walk and climb stairs. Both scores range from 0-100, with a higher score indicating a better outcome.

    Measured: 1 year post-operative

  2. Lower Extremity Activity Scale (LEAS)

    Clinical outcomes will be evaluated via the Lower Extremity Activity Scale (LEAS) obtained during a single visit for subjects 1 year or greater post-operatively. The LEAS scale range is 1-18, with a higher value indicating a higher level of activity.

    Measured: 1 year post-operative

  3. Forgotten Joint Score (FJS)

    Clinical outcomes will be evaluated via the Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) obtained during a single visit for subjects 1 year or greater post-operatively. The FJS total score range is 0-100, with higher scores indicating a higher degree of "forgetting" the artificial joint, that is, a lower degree of awareness.

    Measured: 1 year post-operative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoarthritis and Total Knee Arthroplasty, run by David F. Scott, MD at 1 site in United States.

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 7 inclusion and 10 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 2 Jan 2018. 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 United States. 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?

Measurement of antero-posterior stability of the knee with stress x-rays. (time frame: 1 year post-operative). 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 2 Jan 2018.
