VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution
VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution for Knee Replacement
A knee replacement is a procedure performed to repair and resurface the damaged parts of an arthritic knee. Advanced technology, like robotic-assisted devices, can help a surgeon perform a precise knee replacement surgery personalized for a patient’s specific anatomy.
The VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution assists the surgeon in optimizing surgical outcomes by using real-time intra-operative data that’s unique to the patient to enhance the accuracy and precision of the knee replacement.
Conditions Treated with Robotic-Assisted Technology
Robotic-assisted knee replacements are a possible solution for patients who have:
- Complex knee joint disease
- Deformities in the femur or tibia
- Complex knee degeneration
- Damaged hardware from previous orthopedic surgeries
How Does the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution Work?
The VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution uses a variety of advanced technologies to ensure the surgeon has the information and tools they need to perform a highly accurate and precise knee replacement. This technology is designed to:
- Perform state-of-the-art planning of ideal knee stability, knee implant sizing, and exact artificial knee positioning before any bone cuts or preparation using virtual imaging.
- Help the surgeon accurately prepare the damaged bone for the knee implants (the robotic-assisted device does not move or operate on its own)
- Use an infrared camera and optical trackers to help the surgeon gather necessary data about the patient’s anatomy to achieve a high level of precision
