Florida Coast Medical Center is expanding its orthopedic capabilities with the addition of Zimmer Biomet’s OrthoGrid Hip AI®, an innovative surgical guidance technology designed to help surgeons perform total hip replacement procedures with greater precision and consistency. 

The hospital’s first OrthoGrid procedure was completed by orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Dan Jones

OrthoGrid Hip AI integrates artificial intelligence and real-time data during surgery, providing surgeons with advanced guidance to help optimize implant positioning based on each patient’s unique anatomy. The technology is designed to support desired surgical outcomes while enhancing the overall patient experience.

“We are committed to bringing the latest technologies to our community so patients can receive advanced care close to home,” said Tyler Sherrill, CEO of Florida Coast Medical Center. “The addition of OrthoGrid Hip AI reflects our investment in new orthopedic solutions that support our surgeons and help deliver the best possible outcomes for our patients.”

“OrthoGrid Hip AI provides real-time information that helps us make precise decisions throughout the procedure,” said Dr. Jones. “The technology enhances accuracy without changing the workflow of surgery, allowing us to personalize implant positioning for each patient while using a minimally invasive approach. Ultimately, it’s another tool that helps us improve outcomes and get patients back to the activities they enjoy.”

OrthoGrid Hip AI offers several key benefits, including:

• Enhanced Precision and Accuracy: The technology uses artificial intelligence to assist surgeons with precise implant placement tailored to each patient’s anatomy.
• Minimally Invasive Approach: Unlike some other surgical guidance systems, OrthoGrid Hip AI does not require additional incisions or hardware placement in the hip or thigh bone.
• Reduced Radiation Exposure: By requiring fewer X-rays during surgery, the technology has the potential to reduce radiation exposure for both patients and surgical teams.
• Surgeon-Controlled Technology: The system is designed to be fully operated by the surgeon, allowing seamless integration into existing total hip replacement procedures.

Florida Coast Medical Center’s orthopedic surgeons can incorporate the technology into total hip replacement procedures performed through the direct anterior approach, helping provide patients with state-of-the-art care and surgical innovation.
