Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods are disclosed for measuring a femoral alignment of a femur of a patient via a surgically implanted measurement device. An exemplary method may include: receiving, via at least one processor, first data from the measurement device, wherein: a housing of the measurement device is coupled to a musculoskeletal system of a patient; and the first data includes a plurality of measurements from each of an accelerometer and a gyroscope included with an inertial measurement unit disposed within the housing; determining the femoral alignment based on the first data; and causing a display to output the determined femoral alignment.
