Abstract
A joint monitoring system for measuring performance parameters associated with an orthopedic articular joint comprises a force sensing module and an inertial measurement units. The sensing module comprises a housing that engages with the joint articular surface having a medial portion and a lateral portion. The sensing module also includes a first and second set of sensors disposed within the housing. The first set of sensors are mechanically coupled to the medial portion of the particular surface and configured to detect information of a force incident upon the medial portion of the articular surface. The second set of sensors are mechanically coupled to the lateral portion of the articular surface and configured to detect information a force incident upon a lateral portion of the articular surface. The inertial measurement unit is configured to detect an orientation of at least one of a first and second bone of a knee joint.
