Detailed Description
This study is a retrospective investigation of subjects who have received primary Triathlon Total Knee Arthroplasty inserted with Simplex High Viscosity (HV) Cement to evaluate the success rate defined as absence of revision for aseptic loosening of components at two years postoperative.

---|---|
Non-medicated Simplex HV Retrospective observation of patients who have received a Triathlon Total Knee Replacement implanted with nonmedicated Simplex HV Bone Cement. |
Device: Simplex HV
Simplex HV bone cement is a fast-setting acrylic resin for use in bone surgery. Mixing the two separate sterile components produces a ductile bone cement which, after hardening, fixes the implant and transfers stresses produced during movement evenly to the bone.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Success rate [24 months]
To evaluate the success rate of cemented Triathlon Total Knee components implanted using Simplex high viscosity bone cement (Simplex HV). Success is defined as absence of revision due to aseptic loosening in cemented Triathlon Total Knee components implanted with Simplex HV.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Knee Society Score (KSS) Results [pre-op, 2 years, optional 5 years]
To review KSS results and complications of patients who have received Simplex HV in a Triathlon Total Knee Arthroplasty.
- Oxford Knee Score (OKS) Results [pre-op, 2 years, optional 5 years]
To review OKS results and complications of patients who have received Simplex HV in a Triathlon Total Knee Arthroplasty.
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
