Abstract
A knee arthroplasty instrument may include a tensioning instrument and at least a first sensor. The tensioning instrument can optionally include a tibial component configured to engage the tibia and a femoral component configured to engage the femur. The femoral component can be movably coupled to the tibial component to place the knee joint in tension by separating the tibia and the femur. The first sensor can be coupled to the tensioning instrument and can be configured to collect first data regarding a torque of the tensioning instrument when separating the tibia and the femur.
