Brief Summary
The purpose of this evaluation is to evaluate the intraoperative soft tissue balance as assessed by the Orthosensor device, to measure the perioperative gait and function with the Muvr tracking device, and to correlate this soft tissue balance with early functional outcomes in the Persona total knee system.

Knee Society Score (KSS)
Patient-reported outcome surveys assessing pain and function after total knee arthroplasty. Range 0-100, higher score better.

Study Arms (2)
Group 1-Traditional soft tissue balance
Patients in group 1 will receive traditional, manual soft-tissue balancing during surgery. For the purpose of the study, the balance will be quantitatively assessed at the end of the case, by means of surgeon-blinded VERASENSE measurements before and after cementation.
Group 2-Soft tissue balance using VERASENSE
For the patients in Group 2, intra-operative sensor feedback will be used in creating a quantitatively balanced knee (VERASENSE, OrthoSensor Inc.). Thereby, a quantitatively balanced knee is characterized by a mediolateral load differential below 15lbs at 10-45-90 degrees of flexion.
Interventions
Total knee arthroplasty
Instrumented tibial trial component
Knee motion and gait sensing wearable device
