Subchondral Cyst

Brief summary

The study will be a prospective, multicenter clinical study evaluating clinical and patient reported outcome measures of subjects receiving IOBP® surgical technique using Angel cPRP and BMA processing system to treat subchondral bone pathology (SBP).

Detailed description

The study will be a prospective, multicenter, clinical study, enrolling both male and female patients. Subjects will be identified among the investigators' patient population scheduled for the IOBP® procedure and as being diagnosed with symptomatic SBP that have failed conservative management. IRB approval will be obtained by each participating institution. The primary outcome measure is adverse event evaluation to determine whether IOBP® can prevent further surgical intervention (i.e., knee replacement surgery, HTO, or calcium phosphate stabilization of SBP) when used to treat symptomatic SBP of the knee.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Prevention of additional surgery into the target knee5 yearsTo evaluate if IOBP® procedure will prevent further surgical intervention (i.e., knee replacement surgery, HTO, or calcium phosphate stabilization of SBP) when used to treat symptomatic SBP of the knee.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Visual Analog Pain Scale (VAS)Collected at pre-op, 1 week post-op, 6 weeks post-op, 3 months post-op, 6 months post-op , 1 years post-op , 2 years post-op, 3 years post-op , 4 years post-op and 5 years post-op.Patient reported pain scale using a 10 cm scale with a numeric rating of 0 to 10, with 0
International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective Knee Evaluation Formknee-specific instrument, developed to assess the patients' opinion about their knee and associated problems. The KOOS evaluates both short-term and long-term consequences of knee injury.A patient-oriented questionnaire that assesses symptoms and function in daily living activities. The purpose of this study was to validate the IKDC Subjective Knee Form in a large patient population with various knee disorders.
Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)Collected at pre-op, 1 week post-op, 6 weeks post-op, 3 months post-op, 6 months post-op , 1 years post-op , 2 years post-op, 3 years post-op , 4 years post-op and 5 years post-opA knee-specific instrument, developed to assess the patients' opinion about their knee and associated problems. The KOOS evaluates both short-term and long-term consequences of knee injury.
X-rays of the knee6 months and 1 yearImages include weight-bearing AP, 45 degree weight bearing PA, lateral and merchant views. Images taken to determine location and status of subchondral bone lesion.
MRI of the knee6 months and 1 yearMinimum 1.5 Tesla MRI (including coronal, axial, sagittal, lateral femur, and lateral tibial views). Image taken to determine location and status of subchondral bone lesion.
