Official Title: | A Retrospective Study of the Navio™ Robotic-assisted Surgical System |
Actual Study Start Date : | July 10, 2017 |
Actual Primary Completion Date : | November 29, 2017 |

- Evaluate the Navio™ System for Revisions at 2+ Years Post-surgical Implantation Survivorship [ Time Frame: Preoperative (Baseline) and 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 weeks postoperatively ]Analysis of the absence of device revision (overall survivorship) outcomes assessed from Baseline through 120 weeks post-surgical implantation.
- Evaluation of Efficacy Based on Knee Society Score (KSS) Assessments [ Time Frame: Preoperative (Baseline) and 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36 months postoperatively ]
Analysis of KSS from preoperatively (Baseline) up to 36 months postoperatively in 6-months increments to evaluate objective observation, patient satisfaction, and function.
Objective knee indicators: Range 0-100 points; Patient Satisfaction: Range 0-40 points; and Functional Activities: Range 0-100 points.
Higher scores indicated a better outcome.
- Evaluation of Efficacy Based on Veterans RAND 12 (VR-12) Assessments [ Time Frame: Preoperative (Baseline) and 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36 months postoperatively ]
Analysis of VR-12 scores preoperatively (Baseline) through 36 months postoperatively in 6 months increments. These scores encompass the individual domains of physical component score (PCS), mental component score (MCS) as well as the sub-domain scores within the PCS (physical functioning, role physical, bodily pain, and general health) and those within the MCS (vitality, social functioning, role emotional, and mental health).
Domain Scores:
Physical Component Score (PCS): Range 1 to 20 Mental Component Score (MCS): Range 1 to 25
Sub-domain Scores:
Physical Functioning: Range 1 to 6 Role Physical: Range 1 to 4 Bodily Pain: Range 1 to 6 General Health: Range 1 to 6 Vitality: Range 1 to 6 Social Functioning: Range 1 to 6 Role Emotional: Range 1 to 4 Mental Health: Range 1 to 10
Transformation of raw scale scores (range 0-100) = {(actual raw score - lowest possible raw score)/possible raw score range} x100
A higher score indicates a better outcome.
- Preoperative Evaluation of Efficacy Based on Radiographic Findings [ Time Frame: Preoperative (Baseline) ]Changes in radiographic findings (anterior-posterior [AP] and lateral x-rays) from Baseline to 3 years postoperatively were collected for the SAF population.
- Postoperative 6-Month Evaluation of Efficacy Based on Radiographic Findings [ Time Frame: 6 months postoperatively ]Changes in radiographic findings (AP and lateral x-rays) from Baseline to 3 years postoperatively were collected for the SAF population.
- Postoperative 12-Month Evaluation of Efficacy Based on Radiographic Findings [ Time Frame: 12 months postoperatively ]Changes in radiographic findings (AP and lateral x-rays) from Baseline to 3 years postoperatively were collected for the SAF population.
- Postoperative 18-Month Evaluation of Efficacy Based on Radiographic Findings [ Time Frame: 18 months postoperatively ]Changes in radiographic findings (AP and lateral x-rays) from Baseline to 3 years postoperatively were collected for the SAF population.
- Postoperative 24-Month Evaluation of Efficacy Based on Radiographic Findings [ Time Frame: 24 months postoperatively ]Changes in radiographic findings (AP and lateral x-rays) from Baseline to 3 years postoperatively were collected for the SAF population.
- Postoperative 30-Month Evaluation of Efficacy Based on Radiographic Findings [ Time Frame: 30 months postoperatively ]Changes in radiographic findings (AP and lateral x-rays) from Baseline to 3 years postoperatively were collected for the SAF population.
- Postoperative 36-Month Evaluation of Efficacy Based on Radiographic Findings [ Time Frame: 36 months postoperatively ]Changes in radiographic findings (AP and lateral x-rays) from Baseline to 3 years postoperatively were collected for the SAF population.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Sampling Method: | Non-Probability Sample |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Male or female subjects ≥ 18 years old (at the time of surgery) who have undergone Navio System-assisted UKR at least 2 years prior to enrollment. This includes UKR procedures with all Unicondylar Knee cemented implant designs.
- Subject had a primary diagnosis of unicompartmental, non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, or avascular necrosis, required correction of functional deformity, or required treatment of fractures that were unmanageable using other techniques.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subject received the Navio System-assisted UKR on the index joint as a revision for a previously failed UKR.
- Subject, in the opinion of the Investigator, had advanced osteoarthritis or joint disease at the time of surgery and was better suited for Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA).
- Subject, in the opinion of the Investigator, had a neuromuscular disorder that prohibited control of the index joint.
- Subject, in the opinion of the Investigator, was morbidly obese.
- Subject, in the opinion of the Investigator, was contraindicated for UKR.
- Subject (prospective subjects only), in the opinion of the Investigator, has an emotional or neurological condition including mental illness, mental retardation, drug or alcohol abuse.
- Subject (prospective subjects only) is a prisoner.
