    2. Patient Bone Quality The Persona Trabecular Metal Femoral component should only be used on patients with good bone quality to ensure in-growth will occur. Stable fixation may be compromised if used on soft, osteoporotic bone quality.
  • Page 3 Trabecular Metal Femoral Component ™ INTRO Surgical Technique • Cut Guide Stability Two oblique pins are required for proper stability of the 4-in-1 Cut Guide. A well fixed and stable Cut Guide will help ensure precise bone cuts for proper femoral fit. Follow the order of femoral cuts as described in the technique.
  • Page 4 Trabecular Metal Femoral Component ™ INTRO Surgical Technique Magnet Usage Warning: Some instruments in the Persona System contain magnets. All Persona magnetic instruments should be kept at a safe distance from a patient’s active implantable medical device(s) (i.e. pacemaker). These types of devices may be adversely affected by magnets. Instruments containing magnets should be kept on an appropriate table or stand when not in use at the surgical site.
