Stryker Triathlon Total Knee System for Total Knee Arthroplasty Implanted Using ShapeMatch® Cutting Guides: Sub-Study B

A Prospective, Non-randomized, Longitudinal Study of the Clinical Outcomes of Participants That Receive the Stryker Triathlon Total Knee System for Total Knee Arthroplasty Implanted Using ShapeMatch® Cutting Guides: Sub-Study B

This is a prospective, non-randomized, longitudinal study of the clinical outcomes of participants that receive the Stryker Triathlon® Total Knee System for Total Knee Arthroplasty implanted using ShapeMatch® Cutting Guides.

Health status and functional outcome measures will be recorded to quantify functional status of subjects before surgery and at each follow-up interval. This sub-study involved the assessment of the placement of the ShapeMatch® Cutting Guides intraoperatively and post-operatively. An assessment of post-operative patient outcomes compared to pre-operative status was also analysed.

Exclusion Criteria:

• The patient has a history of total, unicompartmental reconstruction or fusion of the affected joint.
• The patient has had a high tibial osteotomy or femoral osteotomy.
• The patient is morbidly obese (BMI ≥ 40).
• The patient has a deformity which will require the use of stems, wedges or augments in conjunction with the Triathlon Total Knee System.
• The patient has a varus/valgus malalignment ≥ 15° (relative to mechanical axis).
• The patient has a fixed flexion deformity ≥ 15°.
• The patient has a neuromuscular or neurosensory deficiency, which would limit the ability to assess the performance of the device.

Intervention / Treatment

Other: ShapeMatch Cutting Guides with Triathlon; The ShapeMatch® Cutting Guides are intended to be used as patient-specific surgical instrumentation to assist in the positioning of knee arthroplasty components intra-operatively and in guiding the marking of bone before cutting. They are intended for single use only.

Device: ShapeMatch Cutting Guides with Triathlon; All participants will undergo medical imaging assessment using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the affected lower limb.These images will be used to manufacture the patient-specific cutting guides for preparation of the bones prior to implantation of the total knee replacement (Pre-operatively). Patients will undergo primary total knee arthroplasty with the Triathlon® Total Knee System (Stryker Orthopaedics, Mahwah, NJ USA) using the Shapematch cutting guides to guide the bone resection. Patients will follow the standard postoperative rehabilitation program established by the investigator at each site.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Implant Location/Assessment of Alignment	Implant location and limb alignment is assessed using CT scan 3 months after surgery. The mean deviation of the postoperative femoral and tibial alignment from the preoperative plan is measured in degrees.	3 months Post-Operatively

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)_Pain	KOOS consists of 5 subscales; Pain, other Symptoms, Function in daily living (ADL), Function in sport and recreation (Sport/Rec) and knee related Quality of life (QOL). The last week is taken into consideration when answering the questions. Standardized answer options are given (5 Likert boxes) and each question gets a score from 0 to 4. A normalized score (100 indicating no symptoms and 0 indicating extreme symptoms) is calculated for each subscale.)	Pre-operative to 5 years post-operative
Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)_Symptoms	KOOS consists of 5 subscales; Pain, other Symptoms, Function in daily living (ADL), Function in sport and recreation (Sport/Rec) and knee related Quality of life (QOL). The last week is taken into consideration when answering the questions. Standardized answer options are given (5 Likert boxes) and each question gets a score from 0 to 4. A normalized score (100 indicating no symptoms and 0 indicating extreme symptoms) is calculated for each subscale.)	Pre-operative to 5 years post-operative

Knee Society Clinical Rating System (KSS) Pain Scores	The Knee Society Clinical Rating System is comprised of two distinct sub-scores: one for pain, range of motion (ROM) and joint stability, and one for functional parameters. Sub-scores range from a minimum score of 0 to a maximum of 100 points. Although the specific scores are not distinguished as "excellent," "good," "fair," or "poor," a higher value represents a better outcome.	Pre-operative to 5 years Post-Operative

Although the specific scores are not distinguished as "excellent," "good," "fair," or "poor," a higher value represents a better outcome.	Pre-operative to 5 years Post-Operative
Forgotten Joint Score (FJS)	The Forgotten Joint Score is a newly-developed twelve-item, self-reported assessment of how aware recipients of hip and knee joint replacement are of their joint in everyday life. The total score for the FJS is summed, averaged then multiplied by 25 (never = 0 points; almost never = 1 point; seldom = 2 points; sometimes = 3 points; mostly = 4 points). Total score range of 0 to 100.	1 to 5 years Post-Operative
