What is DePuy Synthes?

Designed to help you feel confident from your very first step, the ATTUNE® Knee System is a state-of-the-art knee replacement system that’s been provided to over 800,000 people worldwide since 20111. Designed to deliver a greater range of motion and faster recovery, you could get back sooner to living the life you want to live.

What if you could wake up in the morning, go about your day, and not have to think about your knee pain? The ATTUNE® Knee was designed to give you a better range of motion and prevent that unstable feeling some experience during everyday activities, such as bending or walking up and down stairs. It works in harmony with your knee muscles and ligaments, so you can pursue the passions you want to sooner – without knee pain holding you back.

While knee replacement surgery is a common and successful procedure, it’s important to have confidence in the knee system you choose. According to two worldwide studies that compared the ATTUNE® Knee with other leading knee systems, it showed improved patient-reported outcomes after two years.

During the development of the ATTUNE® Knee, we looked closely at knee replacement designs and surgery procedures to find opportunities for innovation.

This research process allowed us to create patented technologies that are meant to help you return to a life of freedom and movement.

The Patented ATTUNE GRADIUS™ Curve
This is designed to provide smooth motion during knee bending and gives you more stability by reducing unnatural sliding of the femur on the tibia for activities such as walking.

The GLIDERIGHT™ Articulation
This is designed to optimize how your patella (kneecap) works with the rest of your knee, so your movements may be as smooth as possible.

AOX® Antioxidant Polyethylene
This advanced plastic material acts as a spacer between the tibia (shin bone) and femur (thigh bone) to replace the cartilage. It’s shown to have excellent mechanical strength and resistance to wear, so it can take on activities of daily living.
