  • Evaluate efficacy of Vanguard Complete Knee with Microplasty Tibial Tray.

  • Compare Vanguard High Flex Rotating Platform ("High Flex") Knee System to Vanguard Complete Knee System in Asian population in terms of:

    • Early ROM
    • Clinical outcomes
    • Kinetic and Kinematic characteristics in relation to Healthy Knees. o

  • Compare current design to new design of Vanguard High Flex Rotating Platform Knee System in terms of :

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.
