About this study

Official title: A Single Blinded Randomized Control Trial Comparing the Use of ARISTA Polysaccharide Hemostat in Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA)

To examine in Arista hemostatic powder results in less post-total knee arthroplasty blood loss, hematoma formation, and improved range of motion when compared to patients who did not receive the product.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be recruited from the Hospital for Special Surgery and Our Lady of Lourdes Programs. Patients will be prospectively enrolled when Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval is obtained. All patients will be undergoing a primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty for a diagnosis of osteoarthritis. Once enrolled in the study, each patient will be randomized into one of two groups. Group A will undergo a TKA utilizing Arista MPH ® intra-operatively. Group B will undergo a TKA without Arista MPH ®. All patients will receive a baseline IV dose of tranexamic acid per weight based guidelines prior to incision.

A thigh tourniquet will be utilized from prior to incision until wound closure is complete. Arista MPH ® will be used intra-operatively. A 5 gram vial of Arista MPH will be the standard of use. ARISTA will be used in accordance with the instructions for use. Additional need for Arista MPH ® usage during the case will be permitted and recorded. Standard electrocautory will be permitted, however additional thermal devices intended for hemostatic control will not be utilized.

Pre-operative hemoglobin, hematocrit, PT, PTT, and INR will be per standard institutional protocol within 30 days of surgery. The hemoglobin and hematocrit will be repeated 24 hours after the procedure per standard physician protocol. IV fluids administered pre-op, intra-op and post op for the first 24 hours will be recorded. Administration of any blood products from the time of incision until 90 days post-op will be recorded. Blood loss will be calculated via standard HSS. Drains will not be utilized.

The transfusion criteria is: a hemoglobin level of <8 g/dL or a hemoglobin level of <10 g/dL in a patient with symptomatic anemia or deemed at high risk because of notable underlying cardiac comorbidities. Blood will be administered 1 unit at a time, and the presence of symptoms or signs was reassessed.

Pre-operative thigh circumference will be measured on the day of the surgery. For standardization, the circumference will be recorded 15 cm proximal to the superior pole of the patella. Post-operatively the thigh circumference will be measured at 24 hours, post-operative day 14 +/- 4 days, and post operatively at 3 months +/- 1 week.

Post-operative knee range of motion will be recorded at 24 hours, post-operative day 14 +/- 4 days, and post-operatively at 3 months +/- 1 week.

Pre-operative and post-operative day 14 (+/- 4 days) and post-operative 3 months (+/- 1 week) knee society short form scores will be collected All post-operative adverse events related to the procedure will be recorded. These invents include, but are not limited to: readmission, infection, prosthesis loosening, wound dehiscence, and wound drainage.

All data will be de-identified and securely maintained in an IRB approved manner.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Arista in people with Blood Loss, Surgical, run by Virtua Health, Inc. 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 4 inclusion and 11 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 Sep 2024. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Sep 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Blood Loss (time frame: Time of incision until 90 days post-op). 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 Sep 2024.
