A Global Clinical Study Investigating the Safety and Effectiveness of Smith and Nephew's Porous Knee System in Patients Who Need a Total Knee Replacement Due to Degenerative Arthritis, Post-traumatic Arthritis or Inflammatory Arthritis

Study Purpose

A clinical trial investigating the safety and effectiveness of Smith and Nephew's FDA-approved Porous Total Knee System, which is used to replace worn away and diseased knee joints. The aim of this study is to show that most patients who receive the Porous Total Knee System have reduced pain, greater mobility and a long-lasting implant post-surgery.
