Abstract: Disclosed herein are joint implants with sensors and methods for manufacturing joint implants with sensors. A knee joint implant according to the present disclosure may include a femoral implant, a tibial implant and a tibial insert disposed therebetween. The tibial implant may include a medial side with a medial central region defined around a medial center, a lateral side with a lateral central region defined around a lateral center and a central region disposed between the medial central region and the lateral central region. At least one sensor and a battery may be disposed within the tibial insert. The medial central region and the lateral central region may be defined by solid volumes extending from a proximal surface to a distal surface of the tibial insert.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are joint implants and methods for tracking joint implant performance. A joint implant according to the present disclosure can include a first implant on a first bone and a second implant on a second bone of a joint. The first implant can include medial and lateral markers. The second implant can include a medial marker reader to identify the medial markers and a lateral marker reader to identify the lateral markers to provide positional data of the first implant with respect to the second implant. The second implant can include a medial load sensor to measure medial load data and a lateral load sensor to measure lateral load data. A processor coupled to the medial marker reader, the lateral marker reader, the medial load sensor, and the lateral load sensor can transmit the positional data, the medial and lateral load data to an external source.
