Study Details

Brief summary:

This is a prospective, randomized controlled trial using the cruciate retaining, MC Persona to comparing the conventional TKA to ROSA assisted TKA. Patients will be randomized to one of three study trial arms.

1. Standard of care medial parapetallar approach (Control)
2. ROSA PSA medial parapetallar approach
3. ROSA PSA medial subvastus approach Participants will be followed for 1 year post surgery with a combination of perioperative parameters, imaging, patient reported outcomes, functional outcomes, blood and tissue sampling for inflammatory information and activity levels.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

no intervention: Control

Standard of care medial parapetallar approach

active comparator: ROSA PSA Parapatellar Approach

Arm using the ROSA with PSA and medial parapetallar approach

active comparator: ROSA PSA Subvastus Approach

Arm using the ROSA with PSA and medial subvastus approach

Interventions

ROSA PSA Parapatellar Approach

This intervention will consist of using the ROSA alongside patient-specific alignment. The knee incision will be the same as the standard of care (medial parapatellar approach).

ROSA PSA Subvastus Approach

This intervention will consist of using the ROSA alongside patient-specific alignment. The knee incision will be an alternative, quad-sparring, subvastus approach.

Primary outcome measure

  • Functional Outcome - Weight-bearing CT scan [ Time Frame: Pre-operation, 1-3 days post-op, 6-weeks post-op, and 1-year post-op ]
  • Functional Outcome - 3D Ultrasound [ Time Frame: Pre-operation, 6-weeks post-op, 3-months post-op and 1-year post-op ]
  • Functional Outcome - Timed Up and Go test [ Time Frame: Pre-operation, 6-weeks post-op, 3-months post-op and 1-year post-op ]
  • Patient health status - Knee Society Score [ Time Frame: Pre-operation, 6-weeks post-op, 3-months post-op and 1-year post-op ]
  • Patient health status - EuroQuol Survey [ Time Frame: Pre-operation, 6-weeks post-op, 3-months post-op and 1-year post-op ]
  • Patient health status - Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score [ Time Frame: Pre-operation, 6-weeks post-op, 3-months post-op and 1-year post-op ]
  • Patient health status - Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index [ Time Frame: Pre-operation, 6-weeks post-op, 3-months post-op and 1-year post-op ]
  • Patient health status - Global Assessment [ Time Frame: Pre-operation, 6-weeks post-op, 3-months post-op and 1-year post-op ]
