Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

One of the common complaints after ACLR with BPTB autograft anterior knee pain. It is thought that this may be due to harvesting the patellar tendon for graft use. Specifically, this may be due to the bone defect that is left after graft harvesting. There is currently no consensus on a gold standard for treating the bone defect with surgeons using multiple commercially available bone void fillers as well as autologous bone graft in standard practice.

The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the effect bone-void filler on anterior knee pain following ACL reconstruction BPTB autograft.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Placebo Comparator: Control

The control group will receive autologous bone obtained from the BTBPB graft harvest

Other: Autologous bone graft
Autologous bone grafting involves utilizing bone obtained from the same individual receiving the graft

Active Comparator: Autologous Bone + DBM

Autologous bone plus demineralized bone matrix

Device: DBM
Demineralized bone matrix (Allosync, CDMB Putty, Arthrex, Naples, FL)

Other: Autologous bone graft
Autologous bone grafting involves utilizing bone obtained from the same individual receiving the graft

Active Comparator: Autologous Bone + Calcium Phosphate Cement

Autologous bone plus calcium phosphate cement

Device: Calcium phosphate cement

Other: Autologous bone graft
Autologous bone grafting involves utilizing bone obtained from the same individual receiving the graft

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Score on Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Survey [Month 12 Post-Op]

    The KOOS survery is comprised of 42 questions. The questions are divided into 5 sub-categories: symptoms (7 questions), pain (9 questions), function/daily living (17 questions), function/sports and recreational activities (5 questions), quality of life (4 questions). The total range for each sub-category is 0-100, making the total range for the whole survey 0-500. The higher the score, the worse the symptoms and pain / higher difficulty in function.

  2. Score on Kujala Anterior Knee Pain Scale (AKPS) [Month 12 Post-Op]

    The Kujala AKPS is a 13-item screening instrument designed to assess patellofemoral pain in adolescents and young adults, with a variable ordinal response format. For example, a 'Limp' score would be scored as follows: none (5), slight/periodic (3), constant (0). Total scores range from 0 to 100. The lower the score, the better.

  3. Score on International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC Questionnaire) [Month 12 Post-Op]

    The IKDC contains 2 quantitatively measurable questions. Each question is scored 0-10, for a total range of 0-20. The higher the score, the more pain was experienced.

  4. VAS Score for Anterior Knee Pain [Month 12 Post-Op]

    The visual analog scale (VAS) is a validated, subjective measure for acute and chronic pain. Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 10-cm line that represents a continuum between "no pain" and "worst pain." The total score range is 0-10; the higher the score, the worse the pain.
