Trial summary

For decades there have been concerns about patellar resurfacing (PR) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and the individual preference of the surgeon is still the main determinant of whether or not resurfacing is applied. Read more about this study

About this study

For decades there have been concerns about patellar resurfacing (PR) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and the individual preference of the surgeon is still the main determinant of whether or not resurfacing is applied. According to preference, surgeons can be categorized in 3 main groups of those who usually, selectively or rarely resurface. The aim of this prospective, randomized, controlled study to is compare the isokinetic performance and clinical outcome of TKAs with PR and without PR.

Read the detailed description

Patients undergoing TKA for primary osteoarthritis of the knee are randomly assigned to either the PR or non-PR groups. The differences between groups with respect to age, BMI, gender, and preoperative Knee Society Score (KSS), and isokinetic performance are evaluated. Patients are evaluated at postoperative 3, 6, and 12 months with KSS and at 6 months and 1 year with isokinetic measurements.

What is being measured

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

  1. isokinetic test

    isokinetic test during extension and flexion of the knee

    Measured: Change from preoperative isokinetic test results at 6th months and 12th months isokinetic test results

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Knee Society Score (KSS): It has two different subscales: Knee and Function 100-80: Excellent 79-70:Good 69-60:Fair below 60:Poor

    Knee Society Score (KSS)

    Measured: Change from preoperative KSS results at 3rd months, 6th months and 12th months KSS results

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing patellar component in people with Knee Osteoarthritis, run by Gulhane Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 19 Nov 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

isokinetic test (time frame: Change from preoperative isokinetic test results at 6th months and 12th months isokinetic test results). 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 19 Nov 2020.
