The table-mounted solution can be integrated into any operating room (OR). It adapts to the surgeon’s workflow and can offer them the control they are accustomed to and carry out precise bony cuts.
Using innovative planning capabilities, proprietary technology, and advanced design, the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution can help surgeons to resect bones that align and position the implant relative to the soft tissue during total knee replacement without requiring pre-operative imaging.
Furthermore, it streamlines knee replacement surgery by offering valuable insights, versatile execution, and verified performance.
The company noted that the solution works with the ATTUNE Total Knee, which can enhance patient-reported outcomes by working in coordination with the anatomy of the patient to offer stability and motion, using proprietary technologies.
