Optetrak Posterior Stabilized Versus Optetrak Hi-Flex
Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the differences in clinical outcomes between the Optetrak® Posterior Stabilized ("Optetrak® PS", Exactech, Gainesville, FL) and the Optetrak® Hi-Flex™ ("Optetrak® HF", Exactech, Gainesville, FL) knee designs. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference in postoperative knee flexion between the Optetrak® PS and Optetrak® HF groups.

Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee
Replacement of the knee joint.
Knee Prosthesis
Replacement for a knee joint.
Osteoarthritis, Knee
Noninflammatory degenerative disease of the knee joint consisting of three large categories: conditions that block normal synchronous movement, conditions that produce abnormal pathways of motion, and conditions that cause stress concentration resulting in changes to articular cartilage.
