Content
As part of an arthroplasty procedure, the gap gauge 100 can be inserted into an opening 106, also referred to as a gap, between the first bone and the second bone. The gap gauge 100 can be used to determine how much displacement exists between the first bone and the second bone within the opening 106. As used herein, an “opening” refers to a gap, a hole, an aperture, a void in a structure, or the like. In certain embodiments, an opening can refer to a structure configured specifically for receiving something and/or for allowing access. The amount of displacement can be referred to herein as measuring a gap, or space, between the first bone and second bone.
