Comparison of Nonposterior- and Posterior-Stabilized Mobile-Bearing Total Knee Arthroplasty A Prospective, Randomized Study

The purpose of this study is to determine if there are any clinical or radiographic differences in non-posterior stabilized rotating mobile bearing design versus a posterior stabilized rotating mobile bearing designs.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Conditions

Detailed Description

Out comes measures were to determine

  1. whether the knee and function scores and the radiographic results of the knees with a PFC Sigma RP knee prosthesis would be better than those with an LCS RP prosthesis.
  2. whether the patients with a PFC RP knee prosthesis would have a better range of knee motion than those with an LCS RP prosthesis.
  3. whether patient satisfaction and preference would be better in the patients having a PFC Sigma RP knee prosthesis than those of patients having an LCS RP knee prosthesis
  4. whether complication rate would be less in the knees with a PFC sigma RP knee prosthesis than in the knees with an LCS RP prosthesis.
