Talk to a lawyer about your loose Zimmer NexGen knee replacement

We are investigating individuals with the Zimmer NexGen CR-Flex or LPS Flex femoral component who have been diagnosed with loosening of their device and/or who have had revision surgery.

Total knee replacements are supposed to last for approximately 15 years. According to a Podium Presentation given at the 2010 annual meeting of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, the "cementless high-flex femoral component has a high incidence of failure of osseointegration." Patients with a loose component could experience significant pain. 

Some Tips for Living with an Artificial Knee Replacement

If you have an artificial knee replacement, doing the following may make you more comfortable:

Reduce your dependence on stairs by keeping essential items on one floor
Install handrails in the bathtub
Attach handrails to stairways
Consider using a chair in the shower
