About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Osteoarthritis, Knee

Eligibility Criteria

undefined - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Loss of joint configuration and joint function.
  • Osteoarthritis of the knee joint.
  • Rheumatoid arthritis of the knee joint.
  • Post-traumatic arthritis of the knee joint.
  • Moderate valgus, varus, or flexion deformities.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any patient not experiencing a compromised quality of life by loss of joint function and/or joint configuration, or pain from arthritis disease.
  • Any patient whose knee cannot be returned to normal function and normal stability through reconstructive procedures, including ligamentous balancing.
  • Active infection in or near the knee joint, fever and/or local inflammation signs, and elevation of sedimentation rate unexplained by other diseases should not be treated unless preoperative infection is ruled out.
  • Distant foci of infection, such as genitourinary, pulmonary, skin (chronic lesions or ulcerations), and other sites, which may result in hematogenous spread to the implant site.
  • Rapid joint destruction or bone absorption apparent on roentgenograms.
  • Neuromuscular disorders in which the potentially adverse effects on prosthesis function are not outweighed by the benefits gained by the patient from usage of the prosthesis.
  • Mental disorders which would compromise essential patient post-operative care.
  • A painless, stable arthrodesis in a functional position.
  • Allergic reactions to implant materials, and/or tissue reactions to the products of corrosion or wear.
  • Skeletal immaturity.
  • Any patient who is unwilling or unable to comply with post-operative instructions or clinical study requirements.

    Arms of the Study

    Arm 1

    Arm Type

    No Intervention

    Arm Label

    Total Knee Replacement

    Arm Description

    Total knee replacement is indicated for patients suffering from severe knee pain and disability. Specific indications include femoral, tibial and patellar replacement due to degenerative bone disease such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, primary and secondary traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis of the femoral condyles, or complications from a previous prosthesis. The Balanced Knee System (BKS) will be used to treat patients undergoing a total knee replacement.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Evaluate effectiveness of the BKS by assessing complications during surgery and the post-operative follow-up period

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Assess the effectiveness of the BKS by analyzing radiographic evidence and clinical data.
    Identify any surveillance issues regarding the device design and surgical approach used refinement of the surgical technique
    Evaluate device performance through the use of the Knee Society Score, Short Form-36 Health Survey, and radiographic evaluation.

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The protocol will define the clinical study for Ortho Development's Balanced Knee® System (BKS) for subsequent review and approval by an Institutional Review Board (IRB).This clinical study will compare the clinical outcomes of BKS to currently marketed devices.
    Detailed Description
    The rationale is based on the potential effectiveness of the BKS to: Return patient to normal activities or increase mobility by restoring knee function. Provide stability to enhance rehabilitation without external support. Eliminate or reduce knee pain. Assess the clinical efficacy after total knee replacement. Determine implant survivorship and viability. Evaluate patient function and satisfaction.

    Device
    Intervention Name(s)
    Balanced Knee System
    Other Intervention Name(s)
    BKS
    Intervention Description
    A multi-compartmental total knee replacement providing a system of components for primary posterior cruciate ligament substituting procedures. The system consists of femoral, tibial, and patellar components that allow the surgeon to select the most appropriate component combination to meet specific patient needs.
