Summary
This trial is looking at whether a new type of knee replacement is as good as the existing one.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 21 with severe knee osteoarthritis or avascular necrosis limited to one part of the knee, who haven't found relief through other treatments and have a BMI under 40. They must be able to follow post-op care and return for check-ups. Excluded are those with certain diseases, previous knee surgeries that failed, allergies to metal or cement, pregnant women, drug abusers, heavy smokers, or anyone unlikely to complete the study.
What is being tested?
The study compares two types of partial knee replacements: one using a cementless Engage Partial Knee System versus another using a cemented version. The goal is to see if the new cementless method works just as well as the traditional cemented approach in relieving pain and improving function.
What are the potential side effects?
While not specified here, typical side effects from partial knee replacement can include pain at the surgery site, swelling around the knee joint area, stiffness in movement initially after surgery and potential risks associated with anesthesia.
