Total Knee Arthroplasty: Comparison of Fixed and Mobile Bearings

April 7, 2020 updated by: Brigitte Jolles, MD, University of Lausanne Hospitals
The goal of this study is to provide gait parameters as a new objective method to assess total knee arthroplasty outcome between patients with fixed- and mobile-bearing, using an ambulatory device with minimal sensor configuration.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Gait Stride Length
Time Frame: 5years
distance in meters of gait stride lenght measured by a data logger with five inertial sensors
5years
EuroQoL Quality of Life Scale (EQ-5D)
Time Frame: 5years

The EQ-5D is a measure of self-reported health outcomes that is applicable to a wide range of health conditions and treatments. It consists of two parts: a descriptive system (Part I) and a visual analogue scale (VAS) (Part II). Part I of the scale consists of 5 single-item dimensions including: mobility, self care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has a 3 point response scale designed to indicate the level of the problem. Part II uses a vertical graduated VAS (thermometer) to measure health status, ranging from worst imaginable health state to best imaginable health state. T.

Descriptive data from the 5 dimensions of Part I can be used to generate a health-related quality of life profile for the subject. Part II is scored from 0 (worst health state imaginable) to 100 (best health state imaginable). The score from Part II can be used to track changes in health, on an individual or group level, over time.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Semi-objective Evaluation Knee Sciety Score (KSS) Clinical Outcome Measures
Time Frame: 5years
Scoring system to clinically rate the knee abefore and after TK, scored from 0 to 100 with lower scores being indicative of worse knee conditions and higher scores being indicative of better knee conditions.
5years
Number of Participants With Dislocation
Time Frame: 5years
count of numbers of dislocated implants.
