Summary

This trial is testing the Persona knee implant to see how well it works and how long it lasts.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-75 with severe knee pain and disability due to conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, among others. Candidates must need a total knee replacement, be able to consent, and commit to follow-up evaluations. Exclusions include those in other studies, with certain bone/muscle diseases, previous knee replacements on the same side, or infections affecting the joint.
What is being tested?
The study aims to collect data on the performance of Persona fixed bearing knee implants used in total knee arthroplasty (knee replacement surgery). It will focus on how long the implant lasts (implant survivorship) and how well it works clinically for patients who receive it.
What are the potential side effects?
While not specified here, typical side effects from similar surgeries may include pain at the surgery site, swelling around the knee area, infection risk at incision sites or inside the joint space itself. There might also be risks related to anesthesia during surgery.
