The purpose of the study is to collect post-market clinical follow-up data, which is needed to confirm the safety and performance of the JuggerKnot device and meet existing EU regulatory requirements.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment

The JuggerKnot system is comprised of a coreless sleeve structure and suture. The anchors are intended for use in soft tissue to bone fixation by bunching against the bone when deployed. The anchor sleeve material is polyester. Suture materials are ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. The device has 510K FDA clearance.

Clinical Success
Defined as freedom from reintervention due to JuggerKnot with BroadBand failure. Absence of device migration loosening or pull-out.
Time frame: 6 months
Technical and Procedural Success
Successful bone to soft tissue fixation without complications such as anchor pull-out, suture breakage or suture pull through.
Time frame: Intraoperatively
PROMIS Physical Function Score
The PROMIS Global-10 is a 10-item patient-reported questionnaire in which the response options are presented as 5-point (as well as a single 11-point) rating scales. The results of the questions are used to calculate two summary scores: a Global Physical Health Score and a Global Mental Health score. These scores are then standardized to the general population, using the "T-Score".
Time frame: Change from baseline to 6 months
VAS Pain Score
A VAS consists of a line, often 10 cm long, with verbal anchors at either end, similar to an NRS (e.g., "no pain" on the far left and "the most intense pain imaginable" on the far right). The patient places a mark at a point on the line corresponding to the patient's rating of pain intensity.
Time frame: Change from baseline to 6 months
Change in degrees of Range of Motion (ROM) measured by Goniometer
The extent or limit to which a part of the body can be moved around a joint or a fixed point. ROM will depend on the anatomy being studies. ROM will be measured by goniometer.
Time frame: Change from baseline to 6 months
