Proven Technology
Wright’s EVOLUTION® Medial-Pivot Knee System incorporates new features with proven Medial-Pivot technology. The EVOLUTION® Knee System builds on 13 years of outstanding clinical history of the Wright ADVANCE® Medial-Pivot, which was launched in 1998. While no knee replacement is a perfect copy of a patient’s natural knee function, Wright designed these knees to closely replicate the rotating, twisting, and stability of your natural knee. In contrast to other knee implants, Wright’s Medial-Pivot Knee design is more stable and quiet during normal daily activities.6 In fact, there is a published study showing that patients prefer to have a medial-pivot knee over other traditional knee designs. Patients who experienced total knee surgery on both knees (one with a Wright Medial-Pivot Knee, the other with a competitive product design) were surveyed. 3 out of 4 preferred their Wright Medial-Pivot Knee.6
The reasons patients give for preferring medial-pivot knees are as follows:
1. Feels more normal
2. Stronger on stairs
3. Fewer clunks, pops, and clicks
Question for Your Surgeon: Will my knee feel stable after knee replacement?
Many knee replacements give patients the feeling that they are sliding or walking on ice. Some patients may not feel that they can put weight on their new knee. Wright Medical's Medial-Pivot Knees are designed to replicate the stability of your natural knee.
