Abstract: Total Knee Arthroplasty has been the end time surgical procedure for pain relief and movement restoration in cases of severe arthritis. The Knee implant design plays a vital role in the deciding the activity levels of a patient after total knee replacement. 90 percent of younger patients undergoing the knee replacement surgeries, the restriction is not from the subject but from the implant design. This paper discusses parameters affecting the activity levels after total knee replacement. The paper also briefs the design aspects of a novel knee design which allows the normal high flexion activity even after total knee replacement.
