RSA Study of Persona TKA With CR vs MC Polyethylene

November 22, 2022 updated by: Region Skane

Aspects of Alignment, Function, and Migration Behaviour in Two Conceptually Different Articular Surface Designs in the Cruciate Retaining Version of the Cemented Persona Knee System - A Randomized Study Evaluated by RSA and CT Analysis

The aim of this study is to evaluate, over a 2 year period, the migration pattern, function and the possibility of anatomical reconstruction of a relatively new total knee arthroplasty (TKA) concept, the Persona. Sixty patients will be randomized into 2 groups of 30 patients each, with one group receiving the Persona TKA with a conventional Cruciate Retaining (CR) polyethylene articular surface and the other group with a newly developed Medial Congruent (MC) articular surface. Patients will be followed up with Radiostereometry (RSA), conventional radiography, outcome questionnaires, clinical evaluation and Computer Tomography (CT). The migration pattern of the components will be evaluated as well as the degree of anatomical reconstruction and clinical result.

We plan also to do a 5 year follow-up of the patients with RSA and PROMS.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
No Intervention: Cruciate Retaining Polyethylene (CR)
This is the standard Polyethylene articular surface
Active Comparator: Medial Congruent Polyethylene (MC)
The intervention here will be the MC articular surface. This is the new Polyethylene articular surface with a more congruent medial side and a more flat lateral side which should better resemble natural anatomy.
One group receives the conventional CR surface and the other the new MC articular surface
Other Names:
  • MC
