Study summary

Study is prospective and multi-center. Study will include 100 to 200 patients across up to 20 sites.The study sites will be located in the United States.The study objective is to evaluate the safety and performance of the ConforMIS iUni® Unicompartmental Knee Resurfacing Device in patients with single compartment osteoarthritis.

Read the detailed description

The iUni G2 Unicompartmental Resurfacing Device (iUni) is an FDA cleared and CE Marked implant designed for patients with damage isolated to either the medial or lateral tibiofemoral compartment of the knee. The study subjects will be followed for 10 years post implant. The study objective is to evaluate the safety and performance of the ConforMIS iUni® Unicompartmental Knee Resurfacing Device in patients with single compartment osteoarthritis. The iUni is a patient-specific unicompartmental resurfacing device designed from the patient's unique anatomy using proprietary software which interprets data from the patient's CT scan. The patient matched implant design is then coupled with unique patient-matched disposable instrumentation designed using the same CT data and software. The follow-up visit schedule will include visits at 6 weeks, 6 months (optional), 1 year, 2 years, 5 years and 10 years post implant.The remaining follow-up data collected at years 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 may be collected via phone call/email and does not require a subject visit to the site.The study sites will be located in the United States.

Interventions

  • DeviceiUni® Unicompartmental Knee Resurfacing Device

    The iUni® Unicompartmental Resurfacing Device is an FDA cleared and CE Marked implant designed for patients with damage isolated to either the medial or lateral tibiofemoral compartment of the knee. The patient-specific iUni is designed from a CT scan of an individual patient's knee using a design process which interactively maps the diseased area and defines the extent of misalignment present in the knee. This process allows definition of the shape and size of the femoral and tibial components of the implant, as well as the disposable instrumentation
