System and method for validating an orthopaedic surgical plan
First Claim
1. A system for validating an orthopaedic surgical plan for performing an orthopaedic surgical procedure on a patient'"'"'s joint, the system comprising:
- a sensor module comprising a sensor array configured to generate sensor signals indicative of a joint force of a patient'"'"'s joint and a sensor control circuit to generate joint force data based on the sensor signals and transmit the joint force data;
a data tag associated with a patient-specific orthopaedic surgical instrument, the data tag comprising surgical procedure parameters associated with the orthopaedic surgical plan; and
a hand-held display module comprising (i) a display control circuit comprising a data reader configured to read the data tag to obtain the surgical procedure parameters therefrom and (ii) a display communicatively coupled to the display control circuit,wherein the display control circuit is configured to receive the joint force data from the sensor module, display joint force information on the display as a function of the joint force data, and display the surgical procedure parameters on the display in association with the joint force information.

Abstract
A system and method includes a data tag associated with a patient-specific orthopedic surgical instrument and a data reader to read the data tag to obtain surgical procedure parameters from the data tag. A display module may display the surgical procedure parameters and/or identification data to validate the patient-specific orthopedic surgical instrument. Additionally, the system may include a sensor module to generate joint force data indicative of a joint force of a patient'"'"'s joint. The display module may be configured to display the joint force data in association with the surgical procedure parameters.
