This paper describes the process and outcome of the efforts to develop a new standard for Personal Health Data (PHD) based on the existing 11073 family of standards for medical devices. It identifies the requirements for a standard that is to be applied to small devices with limited resources of processor, memory and power and that will use short range wireless technology. It describes how existing components of 11073, such the Domain Information Model and nomenclature have been used and adapted to create the new standard.

Individualized total knee arthroplasty achieves better functional results than off-the-shelf implants in patients undergoing personalized coronal alignment.

Knee

January 2025

IULS-University Institute for Locomotion and Sports, Pasteur 2 Hospital, University Côte d'Azur, Nice, France; ICARE Team, Côte d'Azur University, Inserm, CNRS, Valrose Institute of Biology, Nice, France. Electronic address:

Background: Several studies have demonstrated the interest in patient-specific custom cutting guides in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but clinical improvement remains debated. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional outcomes (Forgotten Joint Score, FJS) of patients undergoing individualized TKA compared with those receiving off-the-shelf (OTS) implants, both using patient-specific cutting guides with personalized alignment over a minimum follow up period of 12 months. We hypothesized that individualized TKA demonstrates significantly better functional outcomes than OTS TKA (FJS and percentage of patients reaching the minimum clinically important difference).
