Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| All baseline demographic, presenting conditions and medical history data will be tabulated. Analysis for safety and performance will be done by subgroup analysis or covariate analysis. The primary hypothesis of decrease in pain and increased knee function will be tested by the test of independent proportions using Fisher's Exact test for 2x2 tables when possible, or chi squared test where the approximation is justifiable. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary hypotheses will be tested also with the Fisher Exact 2x2 analysis for acute success rates, and for the occurrence rates of adverse events and other safety measures. For quantitative measures such as pain and function, these will be analyzed using appropriate nonparametric methods such as the Mann-Whitney test. Any experienced procedural complications or other adverse events will be tabulated and presented Beyond these comparisons, sophisticated statistical models may be used to confirm and explore unique advantages of the ConforMIS* system. These tests may include, but may not be limited to, multivariate regression, failure time model analysis, decision analysis. In addition cost-effectiveness analysis may be done where data is available. | — |
