Brief summary

The primary objective of this investigation is to evaluate the performance (in terms of post-operative active range of motion at one year) of the P.F.C. Sigma and P.F.C. Sigma Rotating Platform total knee systems in clinical practice.

Detailed description

The secondary objectives of this investigation are:To evaluate the performance of the P.F.C. Sigma and P.F.C. Sigma Rotating Platform total knee systems in clinical practice. To evaluate the impact of patellar resurfacing on the performance of the P.F.C. Sigma and the P.F.C. Sigma Rotating Platform total knee systems. To evaluate the impact of Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) sacrifice or retention on the performance of the P.F.C. Sigma and the P.F.C. Sigma Rotating Platform total knee systems.

Outcome results

Primary

To Compare Range of Motion Between Sigma RP and Sigma Fixed Treatment Groups in PCL Retaining Arm

Range of motion is knee flexion (how far the patient can bend their knee) minus knee extension (how far the patient can straighten their knee). The result of this subtraction is the range of motion (bending and straightening) for that knee.

Time frame: 1 year

Population: Due to consent withdrawals, deaths, lost to follow up, revisions, subjects whose patella were resurfaced, mis-randomized, those who did not wish to continue in the study, and incomplete or unavailable assessments, 158 subjects in the PFC Sigma Fixed Bearing and 155 subjects in the PFC Sigma RP Treatment Groups were available for this outcome.
