The purpose of this prospective clinical data collection is to document the performance and clinical outcomes of the ExploR® Modular Radial Head. This data collection effort will document the clinical outcomes of the radial head.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Data collection intervals are:

Pre-operative, Operative, 3 Months Post-op, 1 Year Post-op, 3 Years Post-op, and 5 Years Post-op.

Data collected includes:

Historical data, Operative record, Mayo Clinic Performance Index for the Elbow, Quick DASH Outcome Measure, Complications, Lost to Follow-up, Protocol Deviations, and Radiographic evaluation of elbow and wrist.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Observational

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The study population will be implanted with the ExploR® Modular Radial Head.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

The inclusion criteria will be the same as the indications stated in the FDA cleared (510(k) K040611) and (510(k) K051385) labeling for the device.

  1. Replacement of the radial head for degenerative or post-traumatic disabilities presenting pain, crepitation, and decreased motion at the radio-humeral and/or proximal radio-ulnar joint with:

    1. Joint destruction and/or subluxation visible on x-ray
    2. Resistance to conservative treatment
  2. Primary replacement after fracture of the radial head
  3. Symptomatic sequelae after radial head resection
  4. Revision following failed radial head arthroplasty

The device is intended for single use with or without bone cement.

Modular Radial Head replacement prostheses have received FDA clearance for cemented and non-cemented application.

Patient selection factors to be considered include: 1) need to obtain pain relief and improve function, 2) ability and willingness of the patient to follow instructions, including control of weight and activity levels, 3) a good nutritional state of the patient, and 4) the patient must have reached full skeletal maturity.

Exclusion Criteria:

The exclusion criteria will be the same as the contraindications stated in the FDA cleared labeling (510(k) K040611) and (510(k) K051385) for the device. These contraindications include:

Absolute contraindications:

  1. Infection
  2. Sepsis
  3. Osteomyelitis

Relative contraindications:

  1. Uncooperative patient or patient with neurologic disorders who is incapable or unwilling to follow directions
  2. Osteoporosis
  3. Metabolic disorders which may impair bone function
  4. Osteomalacia
  5. Distant foci of infections which may spread to the implant site
  6. Rapid joint destruction, marked bone loss or bone resorption apparent on roentgenogram.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Mayo Clinic Performance Index for The Elbow, Quick DASH Outcome Measure, Radiographic Evaluation
Time Frame: 5 years
5 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Revisions, Complications, Adverse Events
Time Frame: 5 years
5 years
