    摘要: A measurement device suitable to measure a load applied by the muscular-skeletal system is disclosed. The measurement device can be a prosthetic component having an articular surface for measuring parameters of a joint in extension or flexion. A first and second support structure forms an enclosure having load-bearing surfaces. The first support structure includes at least one alignment feature extending from a surface. The second support structure includes a corresponding opening for receiving the alignment feature. The first and second support structures include a peripheral channel and corresponding flange to support sealing of the enclosure. Interior to the enclosure is the measurement system. The alignment feature couples through and aligns a first load plate, a sensor array, and a second load plate to surfaces of the first and second support structures. The sensor array is coupled to electronic circuitry in the enclosure via a unitary circuit board.

    摘要: A distractor suitable for measuring a force, pressure, or load applied by the muscular-skeletal system is disclosed. An insert couples to the distractor. The insert has at least one articular surface allowing movement of the muscular-skeletal system when the distractor is inserted thereto. The insert can be a passive insert having no measurement devices. A sensor array and electronics are housed within the distractor. The distractor can dynamically distract the muscular-skeletal system. A handle of the distractor can be rotated to increase or decrease the spacing between support structures. The measurement system comprises a sensor array and electronic circuitry. In one embodiment, the electronic circuitry is coupled to the sensor array by a unitary circuit board or substrate. The sensors can be integrated into the unitary circuit board. For example, the sensors can comprise elastically compressible capacitors or piezo-resistive devices. The distractor wirelessly couples to a remote system for providing position and magnitude measurement data of the force, pressure, or load being measured.

    摘要: A measurement device suitable to measure a force, pressure, or load applied by the muscular-skeletal system is disclosed. The measurement module includes a unitary circuit board that couples electronic circuitry to sensors. In one embodiment, the sensors are integrated in the unitary circuit board. Using more than one sensor allows the position of applied load by the muscular-skeletal system to be measured. In one embodiment, the sensors of a sensor array can be elastically compressible capacitors. A load plate can underlie the sensor array. Similarly, a load plate can overlie the load plate. Load plates are rigid structures for distributing a force, pressure, or load. The measurement device can include an articular surface for allowing movement of the muscular-skeletal system. A remote system can be in proximity to the measurement device. The remote system can receive, process, and display data from the measurement module in real-time.
