Brief summary

The purpose of this post-market research study is to gather clinical and radiographic (X-ray) information about total knee replacement surgeries completed with the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution and with standard manual instrumentation. The VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution helps the surgeon to plan bone cuts and then accurately achieve the planned cuts during the total knee replacement surgery. The study aims to compare how well the VELYS Robotic-Assisted system enables the surgeon to position the implants exactly as planned compared to manual instrumentation.

Subject that is willing to give voluntary, written informed consent to participate in this clinical investigation and authorize the transfer of his/her information to the Sponsor 4. Subject is currently not permanently bedridden, as determined by the Investigator 5. Subject, in the opinion of the Investigator, is able to understand this clinical investigation and is willing and able to perform all study procedures and follow-up visits and co-operate with investigational procedures. 6. Subject is able to read and comprehend the Informed Consent Document as well as complete the required PROs in English. 7.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Accuracy of the Hip-Knee-Ankle Angle (HKA) Measured on Long-leg X-rays at 12 Weeks.12 weeksThe primary objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate whether the accuracy to plan of the long leg alignment achieved with VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution is non-inferior to the accuracy to plan of the long leg alignment achieved with the manual ATTUNE Intuition instrumentation. This will be assessed by measuring the Hip-Knee-Ankle angle (HKA) on long-leg X-rays taken at 12 weeks and comparing to the planned HKA. A smaller number represents improved accuracy and a better outcome.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Accuracy of the Proximal Tibial Varus-valgus Angle Measured on Long-leg X-rays at 12 Weeks12 weeksThe accuracy of the proximal tibial varus-valgus angle was assessed by comparing the angle measured on an X-ray 12 weeks post operatively to the angle that the surgeon was targeting or planning intra operatively. A smaller number represents improved accuracy and a better outcome.
Accuracy of Femoral Component Flexion Angle Measured on Lateral X-rays at 12 Weeks12 weeksThe accuracy of the femoral component flexion angle was assessed by comparing the angle measured on a lateral X-ray 12 weeks post operatively to the angle that the surgeon was targeting or planning intra operatively. A smaller number represents improved accuracy and a better outcome.
Accuracy of the Distal Femoral Varus-valgus Angle Measured on Long Leg X-rays at 12 Weeks.12 weeksThe accuracy of the distal femoral varus-valgus angle was assessed by comparing the angle measured on an X-ray 12 weeks post operatively to the angle that the surgeon was targeting or planning intra operatively. A smaller number represents improved accuracy and a better outcome.
Type and Frequency of Adverse Events12 weeks, 1 yearRate of local Adverse events and local serious adverse events reported within the first 90 days and the first year post surgery. Local means at the site of the procedure (i.e. the operated Knee). Serious adverse events are events that required medical or surgical intervention to prevent a serious impairment to health.
Soft Tissue DamageDay of operation (intraoperative)Investigators conducted an intra-operative assessment of the condition and function of key soft tissue structures in both Manual and Robotic-assisted cohorts.
Accuracy of the Tibial Slope Angle Measured on Lateral X-rays at 12 Weeks12 weeksThe accuracy of the Tibial slope angle was assessed by comparing the angle measured on a lateral X-ray 12 weeks post operatively to the angle that the surgeon was targeting or planning intra operatively.

Other

MeasureTime frameDescription
Subject Satisfaction With Knee Replacement12 weeks, 1 yearA single patient reported question that asks the patient to score their level of satisfaction with their knee from 0-10, with 0 being fully satisfied and 10 being fully unsatisfied
EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) - Change From Baseline1 yearThe descriptive system comprises five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. The patient is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking the box next to the most appropriate statement in each of the five dimensions. Scores are derived by a 5 digit code. The higher the number, the better the overall health status of the patient with 1 (meaning full health) and 0 (meaning a state as bad as being dead).
Learning Curve12 WeeksThe effect of learning curve on the accuracy was assessed by comparing the accuracy between the first 10 cases each surgeon completed and the subsequent cases. The accuracy was assessed by measuring the Hip-Knee-Ankle angle (HKA) on long-leg X-rays taken at 12 weeks and comparing to the planned HKA. A smaller number represents improved accuracy and a better outcome.
Pain - Change From Baseline12 weeks, 1 yearSubjects are asked how much knee pain they have had in the last week while resting (0-10) and during activity (0-10) with 0 being no pain and 10 being worst pain, therefore lower score is a better outcome.
Forgotten Joint Score (FJS-12)12 weeks and 1 yearThe Forgotten Joint Scores comprise measures for the assessment of joint-specific patient-reported outcome (PRO). These PRO questionnaires focus on patients' awareness of a specific joint in everyday life. Joint awareness can be simply defined as any unintended perception of a joint. This may include strong sensations like pain, but also includes more subtle feelings like mild stiffness, subjective dysfunction, or any discomfort. The FJS-12 score ranges from 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst score and 100 being the best. A higher score means the patient is better able to forget about the artificial joint in daily life. So, the higher the score, the better the outcome is.
Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) ADL - Change From Baseline12 weeks, 1 yearA knee-specific instrument that derives a score developed to assess the patients' opinion about their knee and associated problems. The maximum total score is 100 indicating no symptoms and the minimum is 0 indicating extreme symptoms.

Participant flow

Recruitment details

A total of 200 subjects were recruited into the study and received the intended treatment. An additional 34 subjects were recruited during the study but did not receive the planned treatment and were withdrawn and replaced in the study as allowed in the protocol.

Pre-assignment details

Of the 34 subjects withdrawn without receiving the planned treatment, 8 were withdrawn due to a significant delay in having their procedure performed, 7 were withdrawn due to not meeting the inclusion/exclusion criteria, 6 were withdrawn due to the surgeon using an out of scope implant, 4 withdrew due to their insurance not covering surgery, 5 withdrew their consent, 3 were withdrawn due to the specified instrumentation not being available and one was withdrawn due to a change in the surgeon.

Learning Curve

The effect of learning curve on the accuracy was assessed by comparing the accuracy between the first 10 cases each surgeon completed and the subsequent cases. The accuracy was assessed by measuring the Hip-Knee-Ankle angle (HKA) on long-leg X-rays taken at 12 weeks and comparing to the planned HKA. A smaller number represents improved accuracy and a better outcome.

Pain - Change From Baseline

Subjects are asked how much knee pain they have had in the last week while resting (0-10) and during activity (0-10) with 0 being no pain and 10 being worst pain, therefore lower score is a better outcome.

Time frame: 12 weeks, 1 year

Population: Per Protocol Analysis Set.~The number analyzed at each time point and for each metrics varies due to patients either being lost to follow up between visits or there being missing data.

Subject Satisfaction With Knee Replacement

A single patient reported question that asks the patient to score their level of satisfaction with their knee from 0-10, with 0 being fully satisfied and 10 being fully unsatisfied

Time frame: 12 weeks, 1 year

Population: Per Protocol Analysis Set~The number analyzed at each time point and for each metrics varies due to patients either being lost to follow up between visits or there being missing data during the PROM collection.
