Summary
The objective of this study is to compare the effect on gait of unicompartmental knee
arthroplasty (UKA), using the Oxford® Partial Knee, versus total knee arthroplasty (TKA),
using the Vanguard™ Total Knee System. Specifically quantitative motion analysis will
determine the postoperative effect on gait and other activities of daily living. Biomet's
Oxford Unicompartmental Knee System is the only fully mobile bearing partial knee system
available for use in the United States.
Clinical Details
Official title: Investigation of Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty and Functional, Daily Activities: A Quantitative Assessment of Gait, Sit-to-Stand Activities, and Stair Climbing
