01. Alignment and stability are vital in securing the survival of knee prostheses
02. Knee component designs are categorised as:
03. Stability is accessed in three planes
04. Gait analysis studies have shown that prosthetic knees which retain both cruciates have more normal kinematics.
05. Knee femoral components are manufactured from:
06. The shape of the femoral component is designed to replicate the curves and asymmetry of the natural femur
07. The sagittal curve of a femoral component is referred to as the
08. Tibio-femoral contact pressure is greatest between 10°-40° of flexion
