Medial Stabilised Knee
Information for Patients
SAIPH® Knee
- >95% patient satisfaction1,2
- Patients more likely to forget about their knee and enjoy a higher quality of life3
- Complete stability and natural knee function4-6
Inherent stability – SAIPH® Knee articulation provides functional stability throughout the full range of motion (ROM) whilst also achieving full flexion4-6, supporting both patient confidence and function.
Uniquely Normal – Normal knees are stable throughout flexion. A stable knee is crucial to good post-operative function, activity, quality of life and patient satisfaction.
Satisfaction – Developer1 and independent2 multicentre studies report average satisfaction rates of over 95% satisfaction with patient cohorts of up to 588 knees2.
An independent prospective randomised trial has demonstrated that SAIPH® patients are:- Less likely to modify their lifestyle3,
- More likely to ‘forget’ their knee in everyday life3,
- More likely to report a better quality of life3
