View Edit Delete	OPT-9	6. The gap gauge of Claim 5, wherein the set screw engages the pin by biasing against a planar surface of a section of the pin, the section of the pin having a D-shaped cross-section.	149	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	wherein in the unset configuration, the set screw is disengaged from the pin of the hinge such that the pin rotates in response to a rotational force applied to at least one of the first plate and the second plate.	148	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	wherein in the set configuration, the set screw engages the pin of the hinge such that the pin does not rotate in response to a rotational force applied to at least one of the first plate and the second plate; and	147	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	a set screw having a set configuration and an unset configuration, the set screw comprising threads configured to engage threads within an opening;	146	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	5. The gap gauge of Claim 4, wherein the lock-out mechanism further comprises:	145	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	4. The gap gauge of Claim 3, further comprising a support plate connected to the hinge and the separator and wherein the balance indicator comprises a lock-out mechanism configured to prevent rotation of one of the first plate and the second plate that is connected to the balance indicator.	144	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	3. The gap gauge of Claim 2, wherein the hinge comprises a pin comprising a longitudinal axis that comprises a pivot axis of the second plate, the longitudinal axis parallel to an anterior-posterior axis of the patient such that rotation of the second plate about the pivot axis measures one of a varus condition, a balanced condition, and a valgus condition of the first bone relative to the second bone.	143	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	inserting a first plate and a second plate of a gap gauge between the femur and the tibia;	178	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	resecting one or more of the resected surface of the femur and the resected surface of the tibia;	189	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	removing the gap gauge from between the femur and the tibia;	188	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	20. The method of Claim 18, wherein adjusting the tension further comprises:	187	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	releasing one or more of the medial collateral ligament and the lateral collateral ligament while the gap gauge remains between the femur and the tibia and remains actuated.	186	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	19. The method of Claim 18, wherein adjusting the tension further comprises:	185	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	reading the balance indicator of the gap gauge to obtain an adjusted balance status between the femur and the tibia in response to adjusting the tension.	184	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	adjusting a tension applied to the femur and the tibia by one or more of a medial collateral ligament and a lateral collateral ligament; and	183	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	18. The method of Claim 17, further comprising:	182	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	reading a balance indicator of the gap gauge to obtain a balance status between the femur and the tibia.	181	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	reading a separation indicator of the gap gauge to obtain a displacement between the femur and the tibia; and	180	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	actuating the first plate and the second plate apart such that the first plate is in contact with a resected surface of the femur and the second plate is in contact with a resected surface of the tibia;	179	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	OPT-9	2. The gap gauge of Claim 1, wherein the balance indicator connects to the second plate and the balance indicator comprises a hinge that pivotally connects the second plate to the gap gauge.	142	Added by DJM 2 2021	2/17/21, 12:00 AM
