Filter by:Participants will be enrolled in a prospective clinical trial to assess outcomes in 2 cohorts of patients undergoing unicompartmental versus more extensive biologic OCA transplantation of the knee using MOPSTM-preserved allografts (including menisci), anatomically-shaped allografts, autogenous bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMC)-treated donor bone, and treatment-specific postoperative rehabilitation.
The goal of this study is to establish the accuracy of the new X-PSI Knee System guides by analyzing early postoperative (4-6 weeks) imaging data with regards to the mechanical alignment and compare them with preoperative planning imaging data. Mechanical alignment in the hip-knee-ankle (HKA) frontal plane with X-PSI Knee System will be measured and compared with results reported in the literature using a conventional (non-guided) approach. Hypothesis: The use of the new X-PSI Knee System achieves the same accuracy with respect to mechanical alignment as with conventional instrumentation.
With IRB approval and informed consent, patients (n=10) (18-50 years old) with post-traumatic knee OA and requiring a tibial plateau and meniscus arthroplasty plus a femoral condyle arthroplasty will be enrolled in the study. Primary criteria for inclusion will be Grade IV changes in the articular cartilage of the femoral condyle and tibial plateau and meniscal pathology in the medial or lateral femorotibial joint as determined by physical examination, diagnostic imaging and knee arthroscopy by the PI. Exclusion criteria include Grade III or IV changes in any other compartment of the knee, acute injury to any other part of the affected lower extremity, or inability to comply with the protocol. After enrollment, patients will undergo standardized knee radiography, and complete assessments (described below). Size-matched (standard clinical methodology) proximal tibia with meniscus and distal femur allografts from the same donor will be obtained from a tissue bank (Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation, Edison, NJ) who has licensed the MOPS technology. The medial or lateral femoral condyle will be replaced using our novel instrumentation and technique described above. Tibial plateau-meniscus grafts will be trimmed and used to replace the entire medial or lateral tibial condyle while sparing the attachments of ACL, PCL and respective collateral ligament. The tibial plateau graft will be fixated using commercial available implants used for bone fixation. In the event that the meniscus has been detached from the tibial plateau during graft harvest, the periphery of the meniscus will be sutured to the capsule following standard meniscus transplant procedure. Patients will undergo controlled post-operative rehabilitation according to standard protocols for osteochondral with concurrent meniscus allografts. Range of motion, VAS pain score, SF-12, Tegner score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) subjective and objective scores, PROMIS Bank v1.2 - Physical Function-Mobility, PROMIS v1.1 - Global Health, PROMIS Bank v1.1- Pain Interference, PROMIS Bank v1.2 - Physical Function and Marx score as well as complete radiographs of the affected knee will be obtained prior to surgery and at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery to evaluate healing, function and evidence for arthrosis.
Study Title UK Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up Of The INFINITY® Total Ankle System Study Design Prospective, multi-site, multi-year post-market clinical follow-up study Study Group Primary/Unilateral and/or bilateral Total Ankle Arthroplasty subjects implanted with INFINITY® Total Ankle System Number of Subjects 500 with 10 sites
The primary purpose of TKA Randomized Clinical Trial- Cemented versus Cementless Tibial Prosthesis Study will determine whether there is a significant difference in patient-reported and measured clinical outcomes (e.g. pain, function, length of recovery, and patient satisfaction) between subjects treated with a cementless tibial prosthesis (the cementless group) and those treated with cemented tibial prosthesis (the cement group) over the first two postoperative years. Radiographs will be assessed before surgery and at established post-operative intervals to determine if there are any significant differences between patients in the two groups and to assess the influence of component fixation on radiographic stability over time. Complication and revision rates will also be assessed for comparison.
