Comparing CCK vs. PS Bearings in Revision Knee Replacement Surgery

This study is looking at two different types of knee replacement parts, called Constrained Condylar (CCK) and Posterior Stabilized (PS) bearings, for people who need a second knee replacement surgery (revision total knee arthroplasty). The goal is to see if one type of bearing leads to better patient satisfaction and surgical outcomes, including how long the new knee lasts. You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 80 years old, need a revision to your femoral (thigh bone) and/or tibial (shin bone) knee components, and it's been at least 6 weeks since your first knee surgery. The study will measure how you feel and your knee's function at 6 weeks, 1 year, and 2 years after your surgery. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This interventional study plans to enroll 170 participants. It compares two different devices, the Constrained Condylar bearing and the Posterior Stabilized bearing.
What's involved

Follow-up
Participants will be followed for clinical patient reported outcomes at 6 weeks, 1 year, and 2 years after surgery.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Patients between 18-80 years of age
Patients who are undergoing both femoral and tibial component revisions, or isolated femoral component revisions with a retained tibial component that is compatible with PS or CCK bearings
Patients who are at least 6-weeks out from primary TKA surgery, with complete pre-operative and post-operative knee radiographs obtained at standard of care perioperative visits (AP/lateral and patellar views)
Patients undergoing rTKA for indications including aseptic component loosening, flexion or extension coronal or sagittal instability, component malalignment, arthrofibrosis, patellar maltracking, reimplantation following single or two-stage exchange revision for prosthetic joint infection or bearing surface wear when femoral or tibial component revision is indicated.
The use of revision total knee arthroplasty systems which have PS and CCK bearing options including different degree options of coronal and rotational constraint (to be individually randomized per constrained option):
