A ligament assembly comprising a first ligament anchor () connected to a second ligament anchor () by a ligament () a resilient element () being associated with the first ligament anchor () and a ligament tension adjuster () being associated with the second ligament anchor (). The resilient element () may be disposed within the first ligament anchor () and the ligament tension adjuster () may be disposed within the second ligament anchor ().

Ligament assembly

An implantable sensor configured to be inserted in an intramedullary canal can include a primary insert, a secondary insert, and an antenna. The primary insert can include a distal end, a proximal end opposite the distal end, and a central bore that can extend from an opening in the distal end towards the proximal end. A secondary insert can be receivable within the central bore through the opening. The secondary insert can include a body and a sensor module. The body can be removably engageable with an inside surface of the central bore. The sensor module can be disposable within the body and can be configured to produce a sensor signal as a function of a first sensed parameter indicative of infection. The antenna can be disposed in the central bore. The antenna can be configured to transmit a wireless signal as a function of the sensor signal.

Implantable knee sensor and methods of use

A method and apparatus for applying a bone attachment coating to a prosthetic component, the bone attachment coating being formed from a plurality of particles applied to a surface of the prosthetic component. The method comprising: locally exciting the particles so as to increase the kinetic and/or thermal energy of the particles; and applying pressure to the particles by virtue of a press arranged so as to press the particles against the surface of the prosthetic component at an interface between the press and the prosthetic component. The kinetic and/or thermal energy of the particles causes localised heating of the component such that the particles may be embedded into the surface of the prosthetic component.

Method and apparatus for applying a bone attachment coating

A bearing componentfor a joint replacement prosthesis comprises a first bearing element; a second bearing element, and a linking element, operatively connecting the first and second bearing elementsand permitting relative motion there between. The flexible linking elementprevents dislocation of mobile bearings in a total knee replacement prosthesis. The invention also relates to a bridging element which retains the linking elementwith some play, which acts as a ligament support, and which causes a deflection of the line of action of a ligament A joint replacement prosthesis is also disclosed comprising a biasing elementor a tensioning elementoperatively coupled to the artificial ligament. The biasing elementor tensioning elementmay be housed in the stem of a tibia tray

Prosthesis for simulating natural kinematics

A bearing for a total or partial joint replacement prosthesis: the bearing having a body and a reinforcing element which strengthens the bearing and which forms an attachment member, and/or the bearing being formed at least partially from polymeric or composite material the bearing comprising a lower modulus portion and a higher modulus portion, one portion of the bearing being at least partially encased by the other portion of the bearing. Also provided is a method for of forming the bearing, and a total or partial joint replacement prosthesis comprising the hearing.
