A Randomised Control Trial Comparing Functional Outcomes for Navigated Kinematically Aligned TKR Versus Navigated Mechanically Aligned TKR
RCT Comparing Functional Outcomes for Navigated Kinematically Aligned TKR Versus Navigated Mechanically Aligned TKR
Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust
100 participants
Feb 18, 2018
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The overall aim of the study is to compare navigated kinematically aligned total knee replacements (KA TKR) with navigated mechanically aligned TKR (MA TKR) in terms of function and ROM The objectives are therefore: 1. To compare the functional outcomes of KA TKR versus MA TKR performed using navigation technique 2. To compare ROM and alignment of knee in the two groups
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria2
- • Age between 18 and 90 years
- Diagnosis of degenerative osteoarthritis
Exclusion Criteria10
- o a)Post traumatic arthritis
- b)Varus /valgus deformity of more than 20 degrees
- flexion contracture of more than 20 degrees
- reduced ability to make decision like dementia patients/children
- e)if they had undergone any orthopaedic procedure to the lower limbs within the last one year
- h) neuromuscular or neurosensory deficiency
- I)inflammatory arthritis of the knee joint
- patients who suffered a complication which might influence the final outcome such as a deep infection, fracture or dysfunction of the extensor mechanism in post-operative period. However the complication rate data will be analysed and reported.
