Patient Preferred
"Believe me, I put both knees to the test every day. I just happen to prefer my ADVANCE® Medial-Pivot Knee." - V. Sage
A clinical survey of patient satisfaction was performed by Wright. The purpose of this multi-center study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a Medial-Pivot TKA (ADVANCE® Medial-Pivot Total Knee) as compared to 7 contemporary total knee designs through the feedback of patients with bilateral total knees. This data clearly states that patients who have had both knees replaced, one with the Wright Medial-Pivot knee and the other with a competitive knee product, actually prefer their ADVANCE® Medial-Pivot knee. Patients are excited about how the unique, patented design of the Medial-Pivot knee allows increased flexibility, stability, and faster rehabilitation than competitive products.
