Smart Knee Education

Learn what Smart Knee technology could mean for your recovery.

If you are considering knee replacement, this session helps you understand Persona IQ Smart Knee technology in plain language: what recovery data may show, what it cannot promise, what privacy questions to ask, and how to talk with a surgeon about whether it fits your plan.

What the technology is

Persona IQ is a knee replacement implant option with sensor-enabled recovery data. You will hear what that means in everyday language, without treating the device name as a guarantee.

What the data can show

You will learn how motion and walking trends may support follow-up conversations alongside your symptoms, therapy progress, exam findings, and office visits.

What to ask before choosing it

You will leave with questions about candidacy, privacy, data use, cost and coverage, and how your surgeon decides whether connected monitoring belongs in your plan.

How to Take the Next Step

You do not need to decide everything online.

This page is here to help you start the conversation. You can ask about an education session, request a Smart Knee consultation, or find out which office and surgeon may be the right fit for your knee replacement questions.

If you already have imaging, symptoms, prior treatment records, or a specific medical concern, bring those details through the scheduling and clinical intake process. That gives the care team the right context while keeping your personal health information out of public forms and social comments.

What you should leave with

  • A clearer definition of Smart Knee technology and Persona IQ.
  • A realistic understanding that data can support monitoring but does not replace the surgeon, therapy, or urgent symptom instructions.
  • A privacy checklist: what is collected, who can see it, where it goes, and how to opt in or opt out.
  • A candidacy checklist for consultation: diagnosis, anatomy, implant fit, health history, recovery goals, and comfort with connected technology.
  • Next steps for scheduling, calling, or reading more before deciding.
Realistic Expectations

What Smart Knee technology does not promise

Smart Knee technology does not guarantee faster recovery, better outcomes, complication prevention, or that you will be a candidate. It may be useful for selected patients, but recovery still depends on your diagnosis, surgical plan, health history, therapy, pain control, support at home, and whether any complication occurs. Use this session to get oriented, then use a consultation to decide whether total knee replacement, partial knee replacement, kinematic alignment, robotic assistance, Smart Knee technology, nonsurgical care, or another plan is appropriate for you.

Privacy note: Please do not put symptoms, photos, dates of birth, insurance IDs, or medical record details into public forms or social media comments. Share personal medical details only through the scheduling and clinical intake process.
