Official title:
Prospective Study Measuring Clinical Outcomes of Knee Arthroplasty Using the VERASENSE™ Knee System
The primary objectives of this evaluation are: 1) To attempt to refine the current clinical
understanding of "balance" 2) To determine if patients with quantifiably balanced knee
joints exhibit improved clinical outcomes versus patient with residual imbalance, as
measured by the VERASENSE™ Knee System
Secondary objectives:
- Determine whether a difference in inter-compartment loads and soft tissue tension
exists between the physicians intra-operative feel compared to the quantifiable data
measured by the VERASENSE™ Knee System
- Determine which ligament releases are performed by the surgeon to improve soft tissue
balance while utilizing the information from the VERASENSE™ Knee System
- Evaluate range of motion, pain, physical function, activity level, and patient
satisfaction between baseline (pre-operative) and post-operative follow-up as well as
radiographic success and survivorship of the knee implants
