NCT ID: NCT00839241 Completed - Clinical trials for Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee

A Clinical Study to Investigate if Transfusion of Patients Own Shed Blood Improves the Immunological Status in Comparison to Transfusion of Donor Blood ("Bank Blood")

Start date: January 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of the study is to compare the immunological status after either autologous blood transfusion as administered by Bellovac® ABT or allogenic blood transfusion, with regards to change in Natural Killer (NK) cell frequency in patients undergoing total knee replacement.

NCT ID: NCT00733915 Completed - Clinical trials for Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee

Long-term Study of the DePuy Low Contact Stress (LCS) Complete Total Knee System

Start date: March 2002
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The main objective of this study is to evaluate how the LCS Complete mobile-bearing total knee system and surgical instrumentation performs.

NCT ID: NCT00695045 Completed - Pain, Postoperative Clinical Trials

Intrathecal Morphine in Knee Arthroplasty

Start date: July 2003
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is designed to explore the efficacy lower doses of intra-spinal morphine for pain relief and side effect profiles of same in the setting of Total Knee Replacement.We hypothesized that a dose greater than that used in Total Hip Replacement was needed and wished to find a dose which was effective but had a low side effect profile.

NCT ID: NCT00595426 Completed - Clinical trials for Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee

A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of YM150 in Patients With Knee Replacement Surgery

PEARL
Start date: May 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of twice daily dosing and once daily dosing of YM150 in subjects undergoing primary elective knee replacement surgery

NCT ID: NCT00566826 Completed - Osteoarthritis Clinical Trials

Perioperative Intervention to Improve Post-TKR Support and Function

Start date: June 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Knee osteoarthritis is one of the most common causes of disability in older adults. Total knee replacement (TRK) surgery is often an effective solution when persistent pain does not sufficiently improve with non-surgical treatment. Although most TKR surgeries are a success, an estimated 15% to 30% of patients report no clinically significant improvement in function 12 months after a TKR. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a patient support program in increasing physical function after a TKR surgery.

NCT ID: NCT00493792 Completed - Clinical trials for Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee

X-3 Polyethylene Survival Outcomes Study

Start date: February 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A prospective, randomized, blinded clinical trial is proposed to compare Stryker Orthopaedics N2Vac Polyethylene to their X3 Polyethylene when used with the Triathlon Posterior Stabilized (PS) total knee system.

NCT ID: NCT00436982 Completed - Clinical trials for Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee

Evaluation of Triathlon - a New Total Knee Prosthesis System - Triathlon vs. Duracon

Start date: February 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective is to investigate the Clinical, Radiographic, Roentgen Stereophotogrammetric behaviour and patient outcome when using the Triathlon total knee prosthesis in a prospective randomized clinical trial.

NCT ID: NCT00378872 Completed - Hemorrhage Clinical Trials

Tranexamic Acid vs. Quixil - Reducing Blood Loss in Joint Replacement

Start date: June 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

We will compare the effectiveness of Quixil and Tranexamic acid in reducing bleeding during hip and knee joint replacements.

NCT ID: NCT00362492 Completed - Thromboembolism Clinical Trials

Safety Study of Stopping Thromboprophylaxis Based on Ultrasound Results After Total Knee Replacement

Start date: June 2004
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether stopping Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH) thromboprophylaxis is safe after total knee joint replacement. The investigators select patients without proximal thromboembolism assessed by bilateral venous ultrasound examination 7-10 days after surgery. the investigators hypothesis is that stopping thromboprophylaxis is equally effective than prolonging thromboprophylaxis in order to prevent post-surgery complications in this population.

NCT ID: NCT00277186 Completed - Clinical trials for Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee

Alberta Hip and Knee Replacement Project

Start date: April 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study aims to determine if a New Arthroplasty Care Model, established on evidence-based medicine and best practices, will improve patient outcomes and improve cost effectiveness for patients with severe degenerative joint disease of the hip or knee in Alberta
