About this trial

This study plans to learn more about the effect of adding tissue graft for wrist osteoarthritis reconstruction procedures. Previous studies have shown better allograft stability, and no documented foreign body reaction than with silicone and other synthetic materials.

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

symptomatic wrist arthritis associated with SLAC or SNAC pathology

Patients 30 years or older or 80 years or younger

Disqualifiers

Patients younger than 29 years or older than 80 years

    Supplementing the wrist reconstruction with a meniscal allograft to improve wrist function and pain scores.

  • Proximal Row Carpectomy

    Procedure/Surgery

    Standard proximal row carpectomy with no tissue or synthetic adjuncts

20 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Meniscal Allograft with PRCExperimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: PRC onlyPlacebo comparator 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

DISABILITIES OF THE ARM, SHOULDER AND HAND Score: Baseline/Pre-op

Participant wrist disability score will be assessed before and after their wrist reconstruction procedure. Disability of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) score ranges from (0-100) with higher score being worse and representing more disability. Lower scores are better and represent less disability. The questionnaire contains 11 questions about daily tasks which are rated 1 (no difficulty) to 5 (Unable to perform) for each question.

Time frame
Preoperatively
2

DISABILITIES OF THE ARM, SHOULDER AND HAND Score: 2 weeks

Participant wrist disability score after their wrist reconstruction procedure. Disability of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) score ranges from (0-100) with higher score being worse and representing more disability. Lower scores are better and represent less disability. The questionnaire contains 11 questions about daily tasks which are rated 1 (no difficulty) to 5 (Unable to perform) for each question.

Time frame
2 weeks
3

DISABILITIES OF THE ARM, SHOULDER AND HAND Score: 6 weeks

Participant wrist disability score after their wrist reconstruction procedure. Disability of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) score ranges from (0-100) with higher score being worse and representing more disability. Lower scores are better and represent less disability. The questionnaire contains 11 questions about daily tasks which are rated 1 (no difficulty) to 5 (Unable to perform) for each question.

Time frame
6 weeks
4

DISABILITIES OF THE ARM, SHOULDER AND HAND Score: 3 months

Participant wrist disability score after their wrist reconstruction procedure. Disability of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) score ranges from (0-100) with higher score being worse and representing more disability. Lower scores are better and represent less disability. The questionnaire contains 11 questions about daily tasks which are rated 1 (no difficulty) to 5 (Unable to perform) for each question.

Time frame
