Your Path to Better Knees
Knee pain is one of the most common issues we treat at Paradigm Health. Our specialists work closely with patients to determine the most effective approach for managing knee conditions and injuries, offering both non-surgical and surgical solutions. Whenever possible, we begin with the least invasive treatments, such as regenerative medicine options like PRP and stem cell injections, which may help delay or prevent the need for surgery. If surgical intervention is necessary, our team utilizes advanced, minimally invasive techniques, including arthroscopy and the latest innovations in partial and total knee replacement.
Smart Knee Replacement with Persona IQ™
At Paradigm Health System, we’re proud to offer the latest advancement in total knee replacement technology: the Persona IQ™ Smart Knee Implant. This first-of-its-kind smart implant, recently performed at Sterling Surgical Hospital by Dr. Fernando Nussenbaum, combines the proven design of the Persona® knee system with innovative sensor technology.
What is a Smart Knee?
A smart knee refers to a total knee replacement implant equipped with embedded sensor technology that tracks important movement and activity data after surgery.
The Persona IQ™ implant monitors your activity and knee motion after surgery—measuring key data like:
- Step count
- Range of motion
- Walking speed
- Cadence (step rhythm)
This real-time data helps your surgeon and care team track your recovery, adjust your physical therapy plan if needed, and identify early signs of delayed progress—all without extra clinic visits.
Stay Connected with MyMobility™?
Through the MyMobility™ app, you’ll receive tailored education, guided exercises, and two-way communication with your care team—all from your smartphone.

Leading the Way in Louisiana
