How to Choose the Right Knee Replacement Implants for

Yourself

Knee OsteoarthritisOsteoarthritis of the knee is an infection that damages the knee joint. Wear and

tear arthritis is another name for this condition. The cartilage that cushions and

lubricates the joints in the knee wears away, restricting their ability to move and

causing excruciating pain and swelling. Patients with serious knee arthritis can

benefit from knee replacement surgery.

Here are a few quick pointers to keep in mind when considering knee replacement implants:

Point 1

Inquire about the

doctor's track record.

Point 2

Recognize the implant's

function.

Point 3

Describe the surgeon's

suggestion.

What factors do you consider when

deciding whether to use a fixed or

mobile bearing?

One of the elements of a

three-compartment or uni-compartmental

sliding knee prosthesis is the fixed

bearing. Fixed-bearing knee prostheses

and mobile-bearing knee prostheses are

the two types of knee prostheses. Mobile

inserts have grown in popularity in recent

years since, in principle, they provide

some benefits over fixed inserts, especially

in terms of movement and service life.

However, no clear evidence of major

health advances associated with handheld

bearings has been found to date.

If you can't distinguish between standard and customised instrumentation, what do you do?Standard instrumentation:

In this technique, conventional radiographs

are used to prepare the surgery, and typical

resection models are used to cut the femoral

and fixed bones, which vary only in size

depending on the patient's age. The surgeon

would rely on the measurements and

estimates obtained from the X-rays to

properly position the prototype and make

the required cuts.

Customized Instrumentation:

Implant manufacturers have created a three dimension

preoperative preparation scheme in recent years. The

patient must first have a CT scan or an MRI, after

which 3D printing is used to create personalised

resection models. Nylon is sometimes used. The benefit

of this procedure is that it is much more convenient for

the surgeon, who does the bone cuts using a resection

template that is ideally suited to the patient's anatomy.

However, the time it takes for these 3D printed cutting

models to arrive is lengthy, which may be a problem if

you need to complete the process fast.

Final Thoughts: Finally, keep the following three things in mind when choosing an implant for your knee replacement surgery:

● The specialist would agree that using this implant for your surgery is necessary.● The implant should have a success record of at least five or ten years.● The doctor must decide if the implant is appropriate for the state of your knee.

You should only use high-quality orthopaedic surgical implant instruments supplied by a leading orthopedic instrument manufacturer in India during surgery to get the best outcomes from your implants.
