Brief summary
Horizontal meniscus tears meeting specified criteria will be repaired by any commonly used suture technique. Subjects will be followed for 2 years to evaluate the effectiveness of the repair, by assessing the re-operation rate, and by assessing improvements in knee pain and knee function.
Detailed description
Potential subjects will undergo Screening for eligibility based on Inclusion/Exclusion criteria. Screening will include an x-ray of the injured knee and evaluation of an MRI of the injured knee within 6 months prior to the scheduled procedure. During the procedure, the meniscal tear will be evaluated by arthroscopy to determine if the tear meets study requirements. If the meniscal tear is determined to meet inclusion/exclusion criteria, the subject will be considered enrolled. If any inclusion/exclusion criteria is not met, the subject will be considered a screen failure and will not be enrolled. For enrolled subjects, specific information regarding the repair and repair technique will be collected during the procedure, including still and video images. Subjects will be contacted 7-15 days post-procedure for safety follow-up. Subjects will return for follow-up visits at approximately post-procedure Days 90, 185, 365 and 730. Identical questionnaires will be completed at each visit to assess knee pain and knee function. Safety information will be collected at each post-procedure visit. Additionally, an in-office arthroscopy of the treated knee will be performed at participating sites at Day 185, an MRI of the treated knee will be performed at Day 365 and an X-ray of the treated knee will be performed at Day 730. The patient will exit the study at the Day 730 visit.

An activity level of 10 corresponds to participation in competitive sports, including soccer, football, and rugby at the elite level; an activity level of 6 points corresponds to participation in recreational sports; and an activity level of 0 is assigned if a person is on sick leave or receiving a disability pension because of knee problems. An activity level of 5 to 10 is recorded only if the patient participates in recreational or competitive sports. |

There are five patient-relevant subscales of the KOOS, and each are scored separately: Pain (9 items), ADL function (17 items), Sport and Recreation Function (5 items), Symptoms (7 items), and Quality of Life (4 items). A Likert scale is used and all items have five possible answer options scored from 0 (no problems) to 4 (extreme problems). Each of the 5 scores is calculated as the sum of the items included and then each score is transformed to a 0-100 scale, with 0 representing extreme knee problems and 100 representing no knee problems as common in orthopedic assessment scales and generic measures. An aggregate score is not calculated so that each of the 5 dimensions can be assess separately.
Time frame: Baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years
Population: 30 participants in Safety Population (SAF) and 26 participants in Analysis Population (AS). Planned sample size of 30 participants was accrued for SAF; however, a total of 4 participants were excluded to comprise AS due to late screen failure or withdrawal by participant. Each row represents all enrolled participants at the referenced time point.
