Trial summary

: Total knee revision arthroplasty is increasing in daily practice and will become more relevant in the years to come. Bone loss is a significant challenge in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) especially in revision procedures. Metaphyseal sleeves are widely used to bypass bone loss and improve stability.

About this study

Official title: Residual Pain After Successful Implant of Metaphyseal Sleeves in Total Knee Arthroplasty: a Case Series of 50 Patients With Long-term Follow-up

: Total knee revision arthroplasty is increasing in daily practice and will become more relevant in the years to come. Bone loss is a significant challenge in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) especially in revision procedures. Metaphyseal sleeves are widely used to bypass bone loss and improve stability. This study aims to report the results of primary and revision TKA (R-TKA) using metaphyseal sleeves.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of implant's survivorship

    A retrospective study was performed on patients who underwent TKA or Revision TKA using tibial and/or femoral metaphyseal sleeves to evaluate the implant's survivorship

    Measured: 7 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Evaluation of Numerical Rating Scale (NRS)

    A numerical rating scale (NRS) requires the patient to rate their pain on a defined scale. 0-10 where 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst pain imaginable

    Measured: 7 years

  2. Evaluation of Western Ontario and Mc Master University (WOMAC)

    The WOMAC is widely used in the evaluation of Hip and Knee Osteoarthritis. It is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 24 items divided into 3 subscales:

    Pain (5 items): during walking, using stairs, in bed, sitting or lying, and standing upright Stiffness (2 items): after first waking and later in the day Physical Function (17 items): using stairs, rising from sitting, standing, bending, walking, getting in / out of a car, shopping, putting on / taking off socks, rising from bed, lying in bed, getting in / out of bath, sitting, getting on / off toilet, heavy domestic duties, light domestic duties The test questions are scored on a scale of 0-4, which correspond to: None (0), Mild (1), Moderate (2), Severe (3), and Extreme (4).

    A sum of the scores for all three subscales gives a total WOMAC score

    Measured: 7 years

  3. Evaluation of Oxford Knee Score (OKS)

    The Oxford Knee Score (OKS) is a 12-item patient-reported PRO specifically designed and developed to assess function and pain after total knee replacement (TKR) surgery (arthroplasty). It is short, reproducible, valid and sensitive to clinically important changes.

    Each of the 12 answers are assigned the previously defined number of points. They range from 1 = least difficult to 5 = most difficult. The 12 ratings are then added together to give a total score used to assess the patient. The possible total score ranges from 12 to 60 points. Here, a low score (e.g. 12 points) indicates good outcomes and vice versa.

    Measured: 7 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Implant of metaphyseal sleeves in Total knee arthroplasty in people with Osteoarthritis, Knee, run by University of Milan at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Evaluation of implant's survivorship (time frame: 7 years). 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.
