These lofty goals are consistent with just about every knee registry irrespective of the type of knee surgery being measured. We should ask if they have been reached. Should we continue with registries or are there better, more relevant and accurate methods to assess and ultimately improve our surgery.

Knee mechanisms for through-knee prostheses [PDF]
The most widely used knee mechanisms for through-knee amputees can be characterized as three principal types of design. These types are metal side bars with heavy duty joints, conventional knee mechanisms for above-knee amputees and special polycentric linkage mechanisms for through-knee amputees. An investigation in Sweden in 1979 showed that over 50%

The Complexity of Human Walking: A Knee Osteoarthritis Study [PDF]
This study proposes a framework for deconstructing complex walking patterns to create a simple principal component space before checking whether the projection to this space is suitable for identifying changes from the normality.
