Functional Evaluation of a Standard and a High-flexion Knee Prosthesis Using Thigh-calf Contact Force Measurements

NCT00899041 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 67

Last updated 2013-11-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether subjects receiving a high-flexion knee prosthesis show a better knee function than patients receiving a standard knee prosthesis. Thigh-calf contact force measurements are used to quantify knee function. The investigators' hypothesis is that high-flexion knees show a better knee function.

Conditions

  • Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA)

28 subjects will receive the standard Sigma FB knee prosthesis. 28 subjects will receive the high flexion Sigma RP-F knee prosthesis.
