14 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
To determine if robotically-assisted UKA results in more consistent and improved component positioning and better patient reported outcome scores compared to manual TKA and MAKO TKA.
The primary study objective is to evaluate a cementless partial knee system that has a modular 3-D printed porous metal tibial component and a cemented partial knee system. The hypothesis is that at minimum 2-year follow-up, fixed bearing medial partial knee replacements using cementless and cemented fixation will demonstrate no differences in clinical outcome.
The purpose of the study is to determine the survivorship of robotic-arm assisted MCK medial onlay Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty implants at two, five and tem year follow up.
This is a prospective, multi-center study, designed to assess mid-term performance of the MOTO Medial® Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty (UKA), with patient report outcomes, clinical findings and radiographic analysis.
To determine whether home-based physical therapy (HBPT) is not clinically inferior to formal outpatient physical therapy (OPT) after hospital discharge of patients undergoing a unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA).
The purpose of this study is to determine the survivorship rate of robotic assisted medial partial knee replacement at a two, five, and ten years.
This study will evaluate the affects of a single injection ultrasound-guided adductor canal block for patients undergoing robotic-assisted (MAKOplasty) medial UKA (unicompartmental knee arthroplasty). Specifically, this study will compare the adequacy of postoperative analgesia provided by the adductor canal block with that provided by single injection lumbar plexus blockade. The working hypothesis is that the analgesia provided by the adductor canal block will be equivalent to the analgesia provided by the lumbar plexus block. The primary outcome will be a comparison of verbal numerical pain scores at rest and with movement over the first 24 hours following nerve blockade.
Plain radiographs and MRI play an important role in the diagnosis of intra-articular knee pathology and can be used to guide treatment decisions. These imaging modalities however have several limitations which can lead to misdiagnosis, incorrect treatment decisions, and suboptimal patient care. The gold standard for confirmation of intra-articular knee pathology is formal diagnostic knee arthroscopy. Diagnostic knee arthroscopy must be performed in the operating room under general anesthesia, which adds both risk and cost to the patient. In contrast to formal diagnostic arthroscopy which uses a 4.8mm arthroscope, needle arthroscopy (NA) uses a 1.9mm nano-arthroscope. NA with a nano-arthroscope is a technique which allows direct high quality intra-articular visualization to be obtained without general anesthesia, and can be performed either in the office or the operating room (OR). One specific application for this technology is in the evaluation of patients who are being considered for either a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or a unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). An essential component of the pre-operative work-up is determining if the patient has isolated unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (OA) or more widespread tricompartmental knee OA. This distinction is essential as each condition is treated differently; isolated unicompartmental knee OA is treated with a UKA while tricompartmental OA is treated with TKA. Our primary objective is to determine if NA is an effective, safe, and cost effective tool to confirm the presence of unicompartmental OA and thus guide patient management in the decision to perform UKA or TKA.

Arthrex will provide NanoScope™ supplies only; no direct monetary funding will be provided.
Background: REAL INTELLIGENCE™ CORI™ (CORI Robotics) is a computer-assisted orthopaedic surgical navigation and burring system. CORI Robotics is designed to help surgeons in planning and executing certain types of knee surgery involving bone preparation. These types of surgery are called 'unicondylar knee arthroplasty' (UKA) and 'total knee arthroplasty' (TKA). Purpose: This study is being carried out to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the CORI Robotics. The data collected will be used to meet the post-market clinical follow-up requirement in Europe and to support claims and publications. Objectives: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the use of CORI Robotics in UKA and TKA procedures in achieving post-operative leg alignment to check that the results of the operation are similar to what the surgeon originally planned. Research participants / locations: Research participants will be recruited from up to 8 sites in 4 countries globally (UK, US, Germany and India).
The primary objective of this study is to obtain implant survivorship and clinical outcomes data for the commercially available Persona Partial Knee System.
This study is a prospective, randomized trial to compare patient outcomes of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for the treatment of medial compartment osteoarthritis.
The purpose of this study is to collect information on complications and survivorship of patients implanted with the Oxford™ Meniscal Unicompartmental Knee System at multiple sites in the United States.
The purpose of this study is to document the clinical outcomes of partial knee replacement surgery using robotic-arm assisted knee joint surgery at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years and 10 years post operative.
Study is prospective and multi-center. Study will include 100 to 200 patients across up to 20 sites.The study sites will be located in the United States.The study objective is to evaluate the safety and performance of the ConforMIS iUni® Unicompartmental Knee Resurfacing Device in patients with single compartment osteoarthritis.
