Trial Outcomes & Findings for Post-op Treatment With Hyaluronic Acid Injections (NCT NCT01256788)

NCT ID: NCT01256788

Last Updated: 2019-01-08

Results Overview

The Tegner Scoring system is a numeric scale range from 1 to 10, with each value indicating the ability to perform a specific activity. The scoring system is ordinal in nature and reflects lower to higher levels of activity participation, with higher numbers indicating a higher level of function.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 yr postop

Population: Study ended earlier due to problematic recruitment issues related to a change in insurance payments. Each treatment groups experienced lost to follow up, therefore the number of participants analyzed is smaller than the number of participants enrolled for each group.

The Tegner Scoring system is a numeric scale range from 1 to 10, with each value indicating the ability to perform a specific activity. The scoring system is ordinal in nature and reflects lower to higher levels of activity participation, with higher numbers indicating a higher level of function.
