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.

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.
