3D Kinematic Assessment of the Human Knee During Physical and Daily Life Activities (NCT01661647)

(Étude de la cinématique Tridimensionnelle du Genou Humain Lors de Gestes Sportifs et de la Vie Courante)

🟡 Not Yet Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ⚙️ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM)

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Problem : Precise and personalized 3D knee kinematic assessment during physical and daily life activities is a challenge; therefore, it was never performed on an important number of individuals. However, a better understanding of 3D knee kinematics during such activities would allow a better understanding of this often injured joint. Hypothesis: A new system using personalized 3D bone imaging and a percutaneous bone fixation device that can be used under local anesthesiaallows for precise and reproducible assessment of 3D knee kinematics during physical and daily life activities. Objectives : * To study human knee 3D kinematics during dynamic activities using a novel minimally invasive measuring system * Investigate the correlations between standard clinical knee laxity tests and measured 3D knee kinematics during dynamic activities
