Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are individuals who received their first total knee prosthesis between 2018 and 2020 and meet specific inclusion criteria.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with bilateral total knee prostheses or those who have undergone revision surgery may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study aims to assess the rate of return to sport among patients who received one of three types of total knee prostheses: medial pivot, medial bearing, and cruciate retaining. The study will involve patients who underwent surgery between 2018 and 2020, with assessments conducted via telephone and electronic questionnaires. It is designed as an ambispective, comparative analysis of three cohorts, focusing on the functional outcomes related to sports participation after a minimum of three years post-surgery.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into which type of knee prosthesis offers the best outcomes for returning to sports, helping guide future surgical decisions.
How similar studies have gone: While similar studies have explored outcomes of different prosthesis designs, this specific comparative approach is relatively novel.
