Official title
The Parapatellar Approach to Intramedullary Tibial Nailing: Is There a Difference in Anterior Knee Pain When Compared to a Traditional Flexed Approach?
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This project will address the incidence of anterior knee pain in the approaches used for tibial nailing. A parapatellar approach, with nail insertion in relative extension, will be compared to the approaches in which nail insertion requires the knee to be placed in flexion. The incidence of anterior knee pain will be compared in each group to assess whether the compared approaches result in similar levels of anterior knee pain. Patients will be given the 2000 IKDC Subjective Knee Evaluation Form to assess anterior knee pain. The 2000 IKDC Subjective Knee Evaluation Form is a newer assessment tool created by the International Knee Documentation Committee. It has been validated for use with broad patient populations dealing with various knee disorders.19
