TM USER GUIDE Device Activation and LinkStation™ Operation LB-03000-003 Rev A INTRODUCTION The OrthoSensor™ Knee Balancer is an intelligent tibial trial that provides intraoperative data to help determine and achieve optimal soft tissue balance and component position during total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The Knee Balancer is capable of sensing dynamic loads and center of load* in the medial and lateral compartments of the operated knee through a full range of motion with the patella reduced. When utilized in the trialing phase of TKA the Knee Balancer will sense intercompartmental loads, center of load* as a reference for tibial-femoral contact, tibial tray rotation and lexion angle of the leg*. Data is displayed on a 27” monitor on the OrthoSensor LinkStation™ depicted below. The OrthoSensor Knee Balancer enables the surgeon to make evidence based decisions regarding soft tissue releases and component position to achieve true balance and stability through a full range of motion. Key Features Key Clinical Beneits • • Addresses the leading causes of early implant failure in TKA: instability, malrotation and loosening • Dynamic intercompartmental load data and Kinetic Tracking enable evidence based soft tissue releases to improve stability. • Provides intraoperative feedback on tibial component rotation*, center of load* and femoral articulation to facilitate optimal component position. • Enables reproducible, teachable surgical technique. • Captures intraoperative data for inclusion in patient record and registries. Provides dynamic intraoperative loads and center of load* in the medial and lateral compartments through full range of motion with the patella reduced. • Kinetic Tracking™ feature provides dynamic kinematic tracking in conjunction with load data. • Displays Tibial Tray Rotation and Knee Flexion Angle*. • Requires no change to surgical worklow. • Low cost, single use disposable device. • Enables data capture in still images or video that may be added to the patient record. *For Reference Only LINKSTATION SET-UP STEP 1 Activate LinkStation Press and hold power button on back of computer to activate. Conirm surgeon visualization of LinkStation. Power switch on back of computer Position Transceiver Ensure Transceiver is connected directly to USB port on back of computer. Transceiver CANNOT be connected through a peripheral USB hub. Transceiver should point toward the operating table with antennae oriented in opposite directions at approximately 45º to the Transceiver. This position promotes optimal communication between the Transceiver and the OrthoSensor Knee Balancer. Optimal Transceiver position with antennae at 45º Four (4) blue LED lights on the top of the transceiver (FIGURE I) indicate power and communication link with the OrthoSensor Knee Balancer. LED #1 LED #2 LED #1 and LED #2 indicate communication link between Transceiver and the OrthoSensor Knee Balancer. These LEDs will illuminate only after device is activated. LED #3 LED #4 LED #4 indicates that Transceiver is active. LED #3 is inactive and will not illuminate. FIGURE I DEVICE ACTIVATION STEP 2 Launch Application Double click the OrthoSensor icon to launch application. Activate Device A. Remove appropriate size OrthoSensor Knee Balancer and Shims from box. OrthoSensor Icon & Application Start Screen Do not remove from sterile pack. Remove outer box labels and aix to patient documentation as required. B. Place device directly over round silver magnet on LinkStation with articulating surface facing up. The LED will illuminate on the articulating surface of the device after approximately one second. DO NOT MOVE THE DEVICE until you observe the following: LED illuminated i) LED turns of after approximately four (4) seconds. ii) Graphic User Interface (GUI) launches. iii) Load Sensor initialization progress bar appears and completes. Initialization takes up to 10 seconds. Device may now be removed from magnet. Initialization in progress LEG SELECTION STEP 3 Select LEFT or RIGHT leg The GUI will automatically prompt leg selection. “ZERO” DEVICE STEP 4 Zero Device The OrthoSensor Knee Balancer utilizes an accelerometer to assess component position* and leg lexion angle*. The “zero” process calibrates the accelerometers to enable these functions and is accomplished in three steps. Note that the GUI prompts user to execute each step in the “Zero” process. A. Horizontal Zero, step 1 Place sterile packed device lat on LinkStation shelf Gently secure medial and lateral edges to ensure device is lat. (FIGURE I) Click the “Zero” button (now lashing red) in the lower left corner of the GUI. Load Sensor initialization progress bar will appear and complete. Initialization takes up to 10 seconds FIGURE I B. Horizontal Zero, step 2 Rotate device 180º and repeat previous step. 180º *For Reference Only “ZERO” DEVICE STEP 4 (continued) C. Vertical Zero, step 3 Place sterile packed device lat against LinkStation post. Underside (non-articulating surface) of device should be placed against post with posterior edge pointing toward loor. Hold device in place and click the “Zero” button. “Device is Ready for Use” will appear on the GUI indicating completion of the “Zero” process. NOTE: This step is instantaneous and has no progress bar. DEVICE READY FOR USE STEP 5 The OrthoSensor Knee Balancer is now ready for use. Verify Device Activation While still in sterile packaging, apply pressure on the device to verify that loads are registering on the GUI. (FIGURE I) NOTE: If loads do not register then the device may not be fully active and the following steps are recommended: FIGURE I i) Deactivate device by clicking the Power button in the lower right corner of the GUI. ii) If device does not shut down, click “OK” to exit or manually quit the GUI (hold Command key down and press the letter Q key). Unplug the transceiver USB cable and re-connect. Re-launch GUI and follow on-screen prompt to shut down active device (if necessary). Repeat device activation and “zero” process detailed steps 2-4 again to fully activate device. Open Sterile Packaging Once activation is conirmed, open sterile packed device and shims and pass into the operative ield using standard sterile technique. (FIGURE II) FIGURE II ATTACH SHIMS STEP 6 The OrthoSensor Knee Balancer is packaged with four (4) shims to enable use of trial inserts with 9mm, 11mm, 13mm and 16mm thickness. A shim must be aixed to the underside of the device prior to insertion into the tibial tray. Aix Shim Aix appropriate size shim to underside of device by sliding it posterior to anterior. (FIGURE I) Shim Exchange To exchange shim size, unsnap it from anterior portion of the device and replace with desired size. (FIGURE II) FIGURE I FIGURE II SET TIBIAL ROTATION STEP 7 Select and position appropriate size Trial Tibial Tray to achieve maximum tibial plateau coverage. The tibial tubercle mid-middle 1/3 is marked and a single anterior pin is inserted to allow rotational adjustments and maintain medial-lateral position. Tibial trial with anterior medial pin inserted, PCL to medial 1/3 tibial tubercle is marked DEVICE INSERTION STEP 8 The OrthoSensor Knee Balancer is inserted with appropriate sized shim aixed to replicate the thickness of the selected trial insert. In a tight knee it is often necessary to insert the tibial baseplate and the OrthoSensor Knee Balancer prior to insertion of the femoral trial. In this instance, reduce the tibia under the femur, then insert the femoral trial with minimal impaction force. NOTE: Excessive impaction force may damage or negatively impact function of the OrthoSensor Knee Balancer. OrthoSensor Knee Balancer (size 5) inserted on the tibial plate with anterior pin inserted. Do not utilize excessive force or impact the Knee Balancer directly with a mallet. Femoral trial inserted over tibial trial and OrthoSensor Knee Balancer, size 5.
