Alignment and Initial Ambulation Settings
This procedure addresses both ambulation and sport
When setting up the Crossover™ knee for the first time on a new patient, the goal is to align the knee in a sta-
ble condition for ambulation. All adjustments to tune the knee are after the patient is set in a stable alignment.
Make sure the patient is in parallel bars for safety as the knee will be in free swing with no or very little re-
sistance in the initial set up phase.
