Total Knee Arthroplasty and Intra-Articular Pressure Sensors: Can They Assist Surgeons with Intra-Operative Decisions?

Abstract: Purpose of Review Soft tissue imbalance, presenting as instability or stiffness, is an important cause of revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Traditional methods of determining soft tissue balance of the knee lack precision and are not reliable between operators. Use of intra-operative pressure sensors offers the potential to identify and avoid soft tissue imbalance following TKA. This review aims to summarise the literature supporting the clinical indication for the use of intra-articular pr… Show more

“…robotic-assisted TKA (rTKA) to align the implants within 1°, 7 and offers protection of the periarticular soft-tissues; 8 in addition, intraoperative pressure sensors can be used to objectively balance the knee joint. 9 Robotic-assisted knee surgery has evolved over the last decade, with increasing evidence of improved component alignment and patient outcomes when compared to manually performed knee surgery. 7 Currently the most commonly employed rTKA is the MAKO (Stryker, USA) system, which is robotic arm-assisted and aids protection of the soft-tissue structures around the knee using a 3D boundary determined by haptic rendering.…”
