Methods for facilitating individualized kinematically aligned knee replacements and devices thereof

1. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for facilitating individualized kinematically aligned knee replacements comprising executable code which when executed by one or more hardware processors, causes the one or more hardware processors to:

obtain prosthesis data for a selected prosthesis;

generate anatomical and pathoanatomical data for a specific patient, wherein the anatomical data comprises at least a coronal mechanical lateral distal femoral angle that is specific to the patient;

generate bone and cartilage resection data based at least in part on the prosthesis data, the anatomical data, and the pathoanatomical data; and

output a recommended three-dimensional knee replacement surgeon plan for the patient comprising the bone and cartilage resection data for facilitating implantation of the prosthesis in the patient.

2. The non-transitory computer readable medium as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the anatomical data further comprises a posterior condylar axis that is specific to the patient.

3. The non-transitory computer readable medium as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the bone and cartilage resection data comprises one or more femoral component coronal alignment angles, one or more femoral distal thicknesses, a femoral component axial external rotation angle, one or more femoral posterior resection thicknesses, a tibial component coronal alignment angle relative to the coronal mechanical axis of a tibia of the patient, one or more tibia resection thicknesses, and a tibia sagittal slope.

4. The non-transitory computer readable medium as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the executed code, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, further causes the one or more hardware processors to:

perform a statistical analysis on outcome data retrieved from a database, the outcome data comprising demographic information for a plurality of other patients and one or more of range of motion data, one or more outcome scores, patient satisfaction data, or reoperation data for one or more of the other patients; and

generate default preference data for the patient based at least in part on the statistical analysis, wherein the bone and cartilage resection data is further generated based at least in part on the default preference data.

5. The non-transitory computer readable medium as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the executed code, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, further causes the one or more hardware processors to obtain preference data and observed data for a patient, wherein the bone and cartilage resection data is further generated based on the preference data and the observed data and the preference data limits an alignment of the prosthesis and a limb of the patient to within a predetermined number of degrees of a mechanical axis of a femur, tibia, or limb of the patient.

6. The non-transitory computer readable medium as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the executed code, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, further causes the one or more hardware processors to facilitate the generation of one or more individualized knee replacement guides according to the recommended three-dimensional knee replacement surgeon plan.

7. An individualized kinematic knee replacement analysis computing device comprising memory comprising programmed instructions and one or more processors coupled to the memory and configured to be capable of executing the programmed instructions stored in the memory to:

obtain prosthesis data for a selected prosthesis;

generate anatomical and pathoanatomical data for a specific patient, wherein the anatomical data comprises at least a coronal mechanical lateral distal femoral angle that is specific to the patient;

generate bone and cartilage resection data based at least in part on the prosthesis data, the anatomical data, and the pathoanatomical data; and

output a recommended three-dimensional knee replacement surgeon plan for the patient comprising the bone and cartilage resection data for facilitating implantation of the prosthesis in the patient.

8. The individualized kinematic knee replacement analysis computing device as set forth in claim 7 , wherein the anatomical data further comprises a posterior condylar axis that is specific to the patient.

9. The individualized kinematic knee replacement analysis computing device as set forth in claim 7 , wherein the bone and cartilage resection data comprises one or more femoral component coronal alignment angles, one or more femoral distal thicknesses, a femoral component axial external rotation angle, one or more femoral posterior resection thicknesses, a tibial component coronal alignment angle relative to the coronal mechanical axis of a tibia of the patient, one or more tibia resection thicknesses, and a tibia sagittal slope.

10. The individualized kinematic knee replacement analysis computing device as set forth in claim 7 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to be capable of executing the programmed instructions stored in the memory to:

perform a statistical analysis on outcome data retrieved from a database, the outcome data comprising demographic information for a plurality of other patients and one or more of range of motion data, one or more outcome scores, patient satisfaction data, or reoperation data for one or more of the other patients; and

generate default preference data for the patient based at least in part on the statistical analysis, wherein the bone and cartilage resection data is further generated based at least in part on the default preference data.

11. The individualized kinematic knee replacement analysis computing device as set forth in claim 7 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to be capable of executing the programmed instructions stored in the memory to obtain preference data and observed data for a patient, wherein the bone and cartilage resection data is further generated based on the preference data and the observed data and the preference data limits an alignment of the prosthesis and a limb of the patient to within a predetermined number of degrees of a mechanical axis of a femur, tibia, or limb of the patient.

12. The individualized kinematic knee replacement analysis computing device as set forth in claim 7 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to be capable of executing the programmed instructions stored in the memory to facilitate the generation of one or more individualized knee replacement guides according to the recommended three-dimensional knee replacement surgeon plan.
