INDEPENDENTLY IMPLANTABLE SENSORS FOR ORTHOPEDIC IMPLANTS
A surgical sensor system for collecting internal patient data comprises a sensor module comprising a housing and a sensor disposed within the housing, and an attachment device comprising a socket for receiving the housing and an exterior anchor feature for attaching the attachment device to biological matter. A method of implanting a sensor module for use with an orthopedic implant device comprises making an insertion portal in anatomy of a patient, positioning a sensor module in the anatomy in a first position relative to the insertion portal, and positioning an orthopedic implant in the anatomy in a second position relative to the insertion portal such that the orthopedic implant is separate from the sensor module.
INSTRUMENTS FOR ROBOTIC KNEE REVISION
A device for registering a bone for a robotic knee arthroplasty with a surgical robot can include a plate and a registration device. The plate can be engageable with the bone and can include a lateral portion, a medial portion, and a hinge. The registration device can be connected to the plate and can be configured to interface with the surgical robot for registration of the plate and the bone.
Three-dimensional porous structures for bone ingrowth and methods for producing
An orthopaedic prosthetic component is provided. The orthopaedic prosthetic component comprises a porous three-dimensional structure shaped to be implanted in a patient's body. The porous three-dimensional structure comprises a plurality of unit cells. At least one unit cell comprises a first geometric structure having a first geometry and comprising a plurality of first struts, and a second geometric structure having a second geometry and comprising a plurality of second struts connected to a number of the plurality of first struts to form the second geometric structure.
Theragnostic Endoprosthetic Spacer
Disclosed herein is an endoprosthetic spacer (100, 200, 300) for administering a therapeutic treatment, in particular a theragnostic treatment. The endoprosthetic spacer (100, 200, 300) comprises a body (102) that is configured to replace at least a part of a bone, a sensor assembly (104) comprising at least one sensor (104A, 104B, 104C), a communication module (108) configured to transmit a signal; and a controller (106) configured to read out a sensor signal from the at least one sensor (104A, 104B, 104C) and to transmit an output signal (110) via the communication module (108).
ZIRCONIUM-COATED IMPLANT COMPONENT AND USE OF SAME
The present disclosure relates to an implant component (10, 20) having at least one connecting portion (30, 60), the connecting portion being at least partly coated with a Zr coating and the coating having a thickness of 1-20 μm, preferably 1-6 μm. The present disclosure further relates to a modular endoprosthesis comprising an implant component, to the use of a Zr coating to prevent crevice corrosion and/or fretting corrosion, and to the use of an implant component in patients suffering from a metal allergy.
TIBIAL PROSTHESIS AND KNEE PROSTHESIS
A tibial prosthesis and a knee prosthesis are provided. The tibial prosthesis includes a tibial plateau, a first tibial insert and a second tibial insert. The tibial plateau has a proximal end face defining a mount surface arranged with respect to a first axis. The first tibial insert is disposed on the mount surface rotatably about the first axis. The first tibial insert has a first concave surface centered on the first axis. The first concave surface is distally recessed. The second tibial insert is disposed on the tibial plateau and has a second concave surface extending along an arc-shaped trajectory line that is parallel to the mount surface. The arc-shaped trajectory line is centered on the first axis, and the second concave surface is distally recessed. The first tibial insert and the second tibial insert are arranged independently of each other, and the first tibial insert is located medially to the second tibial insert.
