About this study

The study is, in accordance with current legislation, definable as a prospective single-center interventional randomized study.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the post-operative recovery of the group A patient undergoing the partial knee replacement surgical procedure compared to the group B patient undergoing the total knee replacement surgical procedure through clinical/functional scores.

Read more

The primary outcome is evaluate the difference in score of the KSS questionnaire, at 1 month after surgery, completed by the patient of group A compared to the patient of group B.

The population consists of 48 adult patients with gonarthrosis divided into two groups:

24 patients Group A experimental group: partial denture surgical procedure

24 patients Group B control group: total denture surgical procedure with patellar resurfacing

Read the detailed description

The medial unicompartmental prosthesis procedure associated with patellofemoral is reserved for active patients suffering from bicompartmental gonarthrosis in which total knee replacement is to be avoided. The advantage for the patient, compared to total prosthesis surgery, consists in the less invasive nature of the surgical gesture, in the total preservation of the cruciate ligaments and the external compartment and therefore of the native joint biomechanics with the possibility of remote revision with total prosthesis from first implant.

Patients keep "their knee" which is coated and not replaced with advantages in terms of joint feedback and functionality in daily activities and sports practices. This study aims to compare two groups of patients suffering from bicompartmental gonarthrosis (medial and patellofemoral gonarthrosis): Group A undergoing a bicompartmental prosthesis surgical procedure; Group B undergoing a total denture surgical procedure with patellar resurfacing. The two groups will be evaluated with clinical and functional scores aimed at evaluating the outcome in the two surgical procedures.

The number and type of exams are as follows:

  • Randomization to Group A or Group B (ad hoc)
  • Knee replacement surgery (as usual)
  • Compilation of KSS questionnaire at 1, 2, 6, 12 months of follow-up with clinical and functional scores (as a matter of practice)
  • Questionnaires and scales (WOMAC, Tegner, VAS and patient satisfaction) at 2, 6, 12 months post intervention (as a matter of practice)
  • Recording of any adverse events at 1, 2, 6, 12 months after surgery (as a matter of practice)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Prosthetic Surgical Procedure in people with Knee Disease, run by I.R.C.C.S Ospedale Galeazzi-Sant'Ambrogio 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 6 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 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 Italy. 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.

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

Contact Elena Cittera (0283502224, elena.cittera@grupposandonato.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assess the difference in score of the KSS (Knee Society Score) questionnaire, completed by the patient in group A compared to the patient in group B (time frame: 1 month after surgery). 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 12 Mar 2024.
