1. During implant Planning, CT slicer view in transverse plane can be
used to assess whether the femoral component overstuffs the
patellofemoral component - CORRECT ANSWER true
2. If you place the crosshair in the location below on a LEFT Knee and
press the button circled in red, what will be the outcome? -
CORRECT ANSWER A degree of internal rotation will be added to
the femur, and the lateral flexion gap will increase
3. In 'distal/tibia cut first workflow,' the surgeon has resected both the
distal femur and proximal tibia according to the plan. How are the gap
values calculated. - CORRECT ANSWER Planned tibial resection to
planned articular surface of the femoral component plus 8.5 mm
4. Which tools are available in the knee array tray that can be used to
balance the knee during pre-resection balancing? - CORRECT
ANSWER Spoons/paddles
5. In pre-resection ligament balancing (before cuts have been made) the
surgeon wants to loosen only the lateral extension gap. What can be
done? - CORRECT ANSWER Anchor on the distal aspect of the
femoral component in the coronal view and increase the degree of
valgus
6. In bone preparation, unlock mode means the surgeon is UNABLE to
enter the stereotactics and start the saw - CORRECT ANSWER True
7. Translating the femoral implant posteriorly affects both medial and
lateral flexion gaps. - CORRECT ANSWER True
8. The steps for identifying and resolving a loose/bumped checkpoint
are: 1. Instruct surgeon to physically check whether or not the
, checkpoint is in hard bone. 2. Reseat the checkpoint in hard and solid
bone. 3. Clear, recapture and reverify the checkpoint. 4. Pop one
sphere on the applicable bone registration - CORRECT ANSWER
false
9. The steps for identifying and resolving a loose/bumped checkpoint
are: 1. Walk three planes in bone registration to confirm it is still
accurate. 2. Reseat the checkpoint in hard and solid bone. 3. Clear,
recapture and verify the checkpoint. 4. Pop one sphere on the
applicable bone registration - CORRECT ANSWER True
10. The overall accuracy is greater than 1 mm after the surgeon
has attempted to register the femur twice. What could be (a) potential
solution(s)? - CORRECT ANSWER All of the above: confirm the
correct patient information, recommend surgeon recapture patient
landmarks, Check CT landmarks, Confirm the correct operative side
11. CT landmarks are used for all of the following except -
CORRECT ANSWER Contralateral transepicondylar axis (true:
coordinate system axes, bones registration, live limb values in
ligament balancing and/or joint balancing)
12. When entering bone preparation, the surgeon tries to verify the
femoral bone checkpoint and the result is greater than 1mm. This
automatically means that the array has been bumped - CORRECT
ANSWER false
13. The steps for identifying and resolving a loose/bumped
checkpoint are: 1. Clear the checkpoint page to verify reproducibility.
2. Reseat the checkpoint in hard and solid bone. 3. Clear, recapture
and reverify the checkpoint. 4. Pop one sphere on the applicable
bone registration - CORRECT ANSWER false
14. What is the purpose of resection view? - CORRECT ANSWER
To provide a post-resection view of the bones based on the current
plan
15. The surgeon is attempting to verify the femoral bone checkpoint
and the result us greater than 1 mm. What could have happened? -
, CORRECT ANSWER The femoral checkpoint was not put into 'hard'
and 'solid' bone
16. Which CT landmark define the mechanical axis of the femur -
CORRECT ANSWER Hip center and femur knee center
17. The Triathlon tibial component M/L dimension changes by 3
mm when increasing/decreasing from sizes 1-8. - CORRECT
ANSWER False
18. The short antler of the leg positioner is placed on the robotic-
arm side of the boot - CORRECT ANSWER false
19. Triathlon tibial baseplates are available in symmetric and
asymmetric styles. - CORRECT ANSWER false
20. The Triathlon CR insert offers how many degrees of
Varus/Valgus constraint? - CORRECT ANSWER no constraint
21. During 'pre-resection' ligament balancing, before any cuts have
been made, the surgeon wishes to tighten both the extension and
flexion gap by 2 mm - CORRECT ANSWER Move the tibial
component superior by 2 mm
22. Which pre-surgery check is side-specific? - CORRECT
ANSWER auto arm accuracy
23. In bone preparation, standby mode means the surgeon is ABLE
to the enter the stereotactics and start the saw. - CORRECT
ANSWER True
24. Triathlon patellas are available in symmetric and asymmetric
styles - CORRECT ANSWER true
25. On the tibial component, posterolateral overhand is desirable
because it provides cortical support during femoral rollback -
CORRECT ANSWER false
26. The Triathlon tibial baseplate with a CS insert and PCL protect
has a default slope of 3 degrees - CORRECT ANSWER true
