Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Maximal passive knee flexion measured on a lateral X-ray one year after surgery.
Secondary outcome
Clinical, functional and radiological performance as measured with: active flexion (lying and standing), KSS, EQ-5d, KOOS, Kujala, Forgotten Joint Score, VAS Satisfaction, number and type of Adverse Events, Hip-Knee-Ankle angle, Patellar tilt & displacement.
Background summary
Rationale: The Journey II BCS claims a renewed right to an active lifestyle by delivering unmatched function, motion and durability through natural motion in TKA. Natural motion will result into high flexion ability. The range of knee flexion and maximum knee flexion influences a patient’s ability to perform important activities of daily living and may therefore directly influence overall quality of life. When this new knee system will facilitate a high knee flexion, this will be depicted in a superior knee function. In addition, a high flexion ability will result in high clinical and functional outcome scores and high patient satisfaction.
Objective: The primary objective of the study is to investigate the maximal flexion ability of the Journey II BCS total knee system one year after surgery.
The secondary objective is to assess patient satisfaction, clinical, functional and radiological performance up to two years.
The ultimate goal is to compare the clinical and functional results of this cohort with the cohorts in the Journey I BCS and Genesis II RCT.
Study design: A prospective, non-randomized, consecutive series, observational study.
Statistical analysis: The primary outcome will be evaluated using descriptive statistics. Thereafter, the three cohorts will be compared using ANOVA.
Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Patients participating in this study will not being barred by any additional risk other than the regular risks for a surgery of a primary TKA. The patients will visit the clinic at regular follow-up moments up to one year, and will receive a reimbursement for the two year visit. These visits take ±30 min extra than regularly because at these moments the patient visits also the research nurse for data collection. The questionnaires and physical examinations of the knee do not bring any extra burden. The additional radiographic assessment (long leg X-ray at 3 months and X-rays at two year visit) increases the total amount of radiation only slightly. However, the total amount of radiation falls within the limits of the ICRP (International Commission of Radiological Protection).
NOTE: some of the patients will additionally participate in a large sponsor-initiated European multi-centre observational safety and efficacy study.
Study objective
When this new knee system will facilitate a high knee flexion, this will be depicted in a superior knee function. In addition, a high flexion ability will result in high clinical and functional outcome scores and high patient satisfaction.
Study design
pre-operative, 3 months, 12 months, 24 months.
Intervention
The trial treatment is the Journey II BCS Total Knee System, which has been cleared for use by the FDA through the 510(k) process in the US and has been CE-marked in Europe.
All patients will receive associated hospital preoperative, per-operative and postoperative standard care.
The Journey II BCS replacement procedures will be performed according to the recommended surgical technique described in the instructions for use as a means of preparing the bones for the implants. The instrumentation consist of femoral and tibial cutting blocks, placed with the use of intramedullary or extramedullary alignment rods. The Journey II BCS total knee system will be placed with the use of a tensioner and by means of a fully cemented femoral and tibial component. For this study, the patella must be resurfaced.
