Clinical Trial Summary
We are investigating a continuous passive motion device to exercise the knee of young
children with arthrogryposis after they have had knee surgery.
Description:
We will measure the effect of continuous passive motion (CPM) of the knee joint post-surgery
on young children with arthrogryposis. We have developed a motorized brace that will move the
joint through a prescribed range of motion and speed while the subject is seated. The
objective of this pilot study is to develop the device from subject feedback and determine
the right dose and speed of CPM to provide. CPM is routinely used for adults and older
children after surgery to maintain range of motion. The machines used are too large for young
children therefore we have developed a prototype for small sized kids that will exercise
their knee joint post-surgery.
