Trial summary

Postoperative function and patient satisfaction are becoming increasingly relevant in patients after knee arthroplasty surgery. Despite adequate preoperative planning, improved surgical techniques and rehabilitation protocols, only 75%-85% of patients seems satisfied after TKA procedurs. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical & Biomechanical Outcome After Robotic Total Knee Arthroplasty by Comparing Inverse Kinematic Alignment and Mechanical Alignment - Gait Analysis and Performance Testing

Postoperative function and patient satisfaction are becoming increasingly relevant in patients after knee arthroplasty surgery. Despite adequate preoperative planning, improved surgical techniques and rehabilitation protocols, only 75%-85% of patients seems satisfied after TKA procedurs. Implant positioning and component alignment are determining factors in patient outcome. Currently, different alignment strategies in TKA surgery are used such as Mechanical Alignment (MA) and Kinematical Alignment (KA). Recently, a new and individualized alignment strategy (inverse Kinematic Alignment/iKA) was introduced. Preliminary 1-year results of iKA are promising, however, clinical and functional outcome on the medium and longterm should be investigated. This project aims to compare patients with iKA TKA with MA TKA on clinical, functional and biomechanical outcomes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Gait Analysis - walking speed - faster is better

    Spatio Temporal Parameters are captured with infra-red camera during gait: velocity

    Measured: 2 year

  2. Performance Testing - step-up step-down speed - faster is better

    Spatio Temporal Parameters are captured with infra-red camera during functional movements: velocity

    Measured: 2 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patient Reported Outcome Measures - Oxford Knee Score (OKS): maximum score (best) is 48/48; worst score is 0/48

    Questionnaire - Oxford Knee Score

    Measured: baseline - 1 year - 2 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Robotically Assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty - Knee Replacement in people with Osteoarthritis, Knee, run by Philip Winnock de Grave, MD at 1 site in Belgium.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jul 2023. 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 Belgium. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Gait Analysis - walking speed - faster is better (time frame: 2 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 Jul 2023.
