The Conformis knee is Outperforming off the Shelf

The attached multicenter, prospective study on two-year outcomes in patients receiving a custom made ConforMIS knee replacement was presented at the International Congress for Joint Reconstruction that was held in 2016. 

Orthopedic surgeons from nine different institutions around the country gave 360 patients the custom-made Conformis iTotal CR Knee Replacement and analyzed their postoperative outcomes at 6-weeks, 6-months, 1-year, and 2-years. 

The results obtained from this study showed the excellent post-op range of motion, as well as significant improvements in Knee Society Scores (KSS) and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Scores (KOOS). 

The ConforMIS knee is outperforming off the shelf in many ways but none more important than in patient satisfaction. More than 90% of the patients in this study were satisfied with their outcomes. Previous studies on patient satisfaction show that with an off the shelf knee replacement the patient satisfaction rate is about 80%. 

Happier patients, significant bone preservation, more natural feeling knee, lower blood transfusion rates, a perfect fit, no compromises, far fewer soft tissue releases, only one small surgical tray, faster recovery, perfect alignment, superior range of motion, and overall more reproducible outcomes. All the above advantages are more frequently obtained with the ConforMIS Custom Knee Replacement. If it is not ConforMIS, then it is not custom.
