Abstract: Disclosed herein are a system for determining ligament tension and a method for utilizing the same in a knee balancing procedure. The system according may include a first sensor to measure a first load at a first condyle of a femur, a second sensor to measure a second load at a second condyle of the femur, an inertial measurement unit to measure angular change of a tibial mechanical axis of a tibia during a rotation of the tibia in a coronal plane, and a display in communication with the first sensor, the second sensor and the inertial measurement unit for displaying a ligament stress-strain curve. The method may include the steps of rotating a tibia toward a first condyle, measuring first load values and first deflection angles of the tibia, and determining a stress-strain curve of a first ligament from the first load values and first deflection angles.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are joint implants and methods for tracking joint implant performance. Braces and trackers for assessing pre- or post-surgical kinematic movement of a joint are also disclosed. The implants, braces and trackers can be utilized together or separately. Trackers having magnets can be implanted in select areas of the joint and sensors included in the braces can cooperate with the trackers to provide joint movement information to both the patient and the surgeon. Braces that do not require cooperation with implanted trackers are also disclosed, as are their uses.

Abstract: A kinematics tracking system is described. The kinematics tracking system includes a first device configured to couple to a first segment of a musculoskeletal system and a second device configured to couple to a second segment of the musculoskeletal system. The kinematics tracking system further includes a computer configured to receive measurement data from the first device and the second device. The first device and the second device each have at least one inertial measurement unit (IMU) configured to measure orientation. The computer includes an application configured to support a registration process for the first and second devices. The application is configured to guide a user through at least one movement during the registration process.
