SOLUTION GRADED A+
● T/F: the trident II acetabular cup menu is comprised of three implant
designs for cementless use only. Each cup design will have an outside
diameter that will be smaller than the labeled diameter on the
packaging.. Answer: False- will be larger
● t/F: when the polyethylene liner is in its final prelocked position it can
be impacted into the acetabular cup. an appropriately sized insert
impactor tip is loaded onto the insert positoner/impactor handle. when
the impactor handle is aligned with the axis of the cup liner then can be
driven into the cup to lock its position. Answer: true
● t/F: trident alumina inserts are compatible with Trident II acetabular
cups. Answer: false
● the triathlon MIS A/P sizing guide can be used in open or minimally
invasive total knee procedures. t/F: regardless of the procedure being
open or minimally invasive, the tip of the MIS sizing guide measuring
stylus should approach the apex point of the medial femoral condyle
from the lateral side of the faceplate on the A/P sizing guide. Answer:
False- apex point of the lateral femoral condyle from the medial side of
the faceplate
, ● the triathlon universal tibial trial template can be fixed to the surface
of the tibia. t/f: the handle of the keel punch guide can be locked onto
the universal tibial trial. Answer: true
● t/F: when implanting a triathlon TS tibial insert, the reinforcement bar
prepackaged with the Triathlon TS polyethylene implant must always be
driven into the round hole on top of the insert's polyethylene post.
Answer: true
● when utilizied appropriately, the Flex rod can assist the operating
surgeon in positioning (when needed) the Triathlon standard or triathlon
MIS distal femoral cutting assembly in a more flexed position than a
rigid rod. t/f: in the sagittal view illustration provided; the triathlon
flexrod is in a less flexed position than the straight rod in the image.
Answer: false- more flexed position
● t/f: 6.5mm low profile hex screws can be used with: trident II
clusterhole (hemispherical), Trident II PSL clusterhole HA, and trident II
tritanium (clusterhole and Multihole) implants. the screw size range is
15mm to 60mm (5mm increments per size). the average angulation
potential of a trident II low profile hex screw is 37 degrees. Answer: true
● t/F: a surgeon has the option of cementing a triathlon tritanium
baseplate should he/she decided that the host bone stock is not suitable
for cementless fixation. Answer: true
