What this trial studies

This observational study aims to gather clinical and patient outcomes data for individuals who have received or will receive the Truliant® knee prosthesis. It focuses on assessing the post-market safety and effectiveness of this orthopedic device by collecting survivorship data from both prospective and retrospective cohorts. Participants will be enrolled either before or after their knee surgery, allowing for a comprehensive analysis of outcomes associated with the Truliant® knee replacement. The study is conducted across multiple locations in the United States.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older who are scheduled to receive a Truliant® total knee replacement for various types of arthritis or knee conditions.

Not a fit: Patients who have already undergone knee surgery prior to enrollment may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into the long-term effectiveness and safety of the Truliant® knee prosthesis, potentially improving patient outcomes.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies assessing post-market outcomes of orthopedic devices have shown success, indicating that this approach is both relevant and beneficial.
