Trial summary

In total knee arthroplasty (TKA), the posterior-cruciate ligament-retaining (CR) and posterior-cruciate-ligament stabilized (PS) techniques are widely used depending on the individual preference of the surgeon. Comparative analysis of these two techniques is a major topic of investigation in arthroplasty research. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Gait Pattern Comparison of Cruciate-retaining and Posterior-stabilized Total Knee Arthroplasties: Gait Analysis With a Smartphone Application

In total knee arthroplasty (TKA), the posterior-cruciate ligament-retaining (CR) and posterior-cruciate-ligament stabilized (PS) techniques are widely used depending on the individual preference of the surgeon. Comparative analysis of these two techniques is a major topic of investigation in arthroplasty research. The hypothesis of the present study is that compared with the CR technique, the PS technique is associated with a worse gait pattern. Smart-phone based gait analysis and patient-reported functional outcomes are evaluated in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty with a CR and a PS technique, at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively.

Read the detailed description

Patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty are randomized to posterior-cruciate ligament-retaining (CR) and posterior-cruciate-ligament stabilized (PS) groups by generating random numbers with Microsoft Excel. The patients are/will be evaluated preoperatively and at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively, with knee scores (KSS and KOOS), life quality (SF-12), and smart-phone based gait analysis. All data will be calculated as mean and standard deviation values. The Student's t-test will be used for statistical analysis of the patient data. Statistical calculations will be performed using SPSS vn.22.0 software (IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 22.0. Armonk, NY, USA).

What is being measured

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

  1. smart-phone based gait analysis

    Gait analysis is made using the Gait Analyzer version 0.9.95.0 (Control One LLC, NM, USA) smartphone application

    Measured: Change from preoperative gait analysis at 3rd month gait analysis

  2. smart-phone based gait analysis

    Gait analysis is made using the Gait Analyzer version 0.9.95.0 (Control One LLC, NM, USA) smartphone application

    Measured: Change from 3rd month gait analysis at 6th month gait analysis

  3. smart-phone based gait analysis

    Gait analysis is made using the Gait Analyzer version 0.9.95.0 (Control One LLC, NM, USA) smartphone application

    Measured: Change from 6th month gait analysis at 12th month gait analysis

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Knee functional scores

    Knee Society Score (KSS) (has two different subscale : Knee and Function 100-80: Excellent 79-70:Good 69-60:Fair below 60:Poor )

    Measured: Change from preoperative Knee Society Scores (KSS) at 3rd month Knee Society Score (KSS)

  2. Knee functional scores

    Knee Society Score (KSS) (has two different subscale : Knee and Function 100-80: Excellent 79-70:Good 69-60:Fair below 60:Poor )

    Measured: Change from 3rd month Knee Society Scores (KSS) at 6th month Knee Society Score (KSS)

  3. Knee functional scores

    Knee Society Score (KSS) (has two different subscale : Knee and Function 100-80: Excellent 79-70:Good 69-60:Fair below 60:Poor )

    Measured: Change from 6th month Knee Society Scores (KSS) at 12th month Knee Society Score (KSS)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing total knee arthroplasty 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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jul 2021. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Deniz CANKAYA, Assoc.Prof. (+90 542 6688056, cankayadeniz78@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

smart-phone based gait analysis (time frame: Change from preoperative gait analysis at 3rd month gait analysis). The study lists 3 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 2021.
