Range of Motion of Standard and High-Flexion Posterior Cruciate Retaining Total Knee Prostheses

March 5, 2013 updated by: Young Hoo Kim, Ewha Womans University

Range of Motion of Standard and High-Flexion Posterior Cruciate Retaining Total Knee Prostheses A Prospective, Randomized Study

The purpose of this prospective, randomized study was to compare pain, functional outcome and ranges of motion of the knees in patients receiving either a standard posterior cruciate-retaining or a high-flexion posterior cruciate-retaining total knee prosthesis.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The main goals of total knee arthroplasty are pain relief and improvement of function and range of motion. The purpose of this study was to compare ranges of motion of the knees in patients receiving either a standard posterior crucaite-retaining or a high-flexion posterior cruciate-retaining total knee prosthesis.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • osteoarthritis that was severe enough to warrant total knee arthroplasty after an adequate trial of nonoperative therapy, and the need for bilateral total knee arthroplasties

Exclusion Criteria:

  • inflammatory arthritis
  • osteoarthritis of the hip causing pain or restricted mobility
  • a foot or ankle disorder which limited walking
  • dementia or a neurological disorder including a past history of stroke which affected mobility

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Knee Society Knee Score
Time Frame: baseline and 3 years

change in knee score will be compared with baseline and follow up of 3 years. The knee society knee score range from 0 to 100 points, 100 being the best possible outcome.

Baseline-NexGen (CR) knee socre:29 points Baseline-NexGen (CR-Flex) knee socre:29 points Follow up of 3 years-NexGen (CR) knee socre: 93.7 points Follow up of 3 years-NexGen (CR-Flex) knee socre: 93.9 points
