The use of SIDs in this study demonstrated a significant reduction in MUA incidence following TKA. SID implantation with remote monitoring led to a threefold decrease in the rate of MUA. This study highlights the potential of SIDs to significantly reduce the rate of MUA through remote monitoring of several gait metrics, such as functional range of motion, cadence, and step count, supporting their integration into TKA care protocols.
