Medico-economic Study of Patient Matched Cutting Blocks (Ancillary) MyKnee ® LBS During Knee Arthroplasty GMK ®.

September 3, 2015 updated by: Nantes University Hospital

Medico-economic Study of Patient Matched Cutting Blocks (Ancillary) MyKnee ® LBS During Knee Arthroplasty GMK ®. Multicentric, Prospective, Controlled, Opened, Randomised Study About Medical Device.

Total knee arthroplasty represents over 70 000 surgical procedures per year in France, increasing about 10% each year since the early 1990s. Clinical experience shows a strong rate of success on pain relieve and improvement of knee articular function for these patients.

Longevity of the implants had been proved to depend on the biomechanical design and implantation techniques, particularly the bone cuts during the surgery. To improve the precision of these cuts, the patient matched cutting blocks developed by Medacta company allows to adapt bone cuts to the patient anatomy improving the reliability of these procedure. A reduction of surgical time and bleeding would be another benefit expected with this type of ancillary. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the advantage of patient matched cutting blocks for total knee arthroplasty on realiability for both clinical and radiological criteria, morbidity reduction during and after the procedure and also a benefit on an economic point of view.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
compare the functionality of the knee after installation of a total knee replacement between the 2 groups
Time Frame: 2 years after
The evaluation will use a specific score for total knee arthroplasty: Part of the Knee Society function score (KSS) measured at 1 year after surgery.
2 years after

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
to assess knee function by autoquestionnaire KOOS, the KSS knee score, operative time, procedure bleeding, reliability of the ancillary
Time Frame: 2 years after
2 years after
medico-economic evaluation type "Cost minimization"
Time Frame: 2 years after
  • Compare the costs of implementing the two strategies (A and B) taking into account the resources consumed (operative time, anesthetic drugs, blood bags ...).
  • Determine the least costly therapeutic intervention and medico-economic impact in the current system of financing of hospital expenditure.
2 years after
