The system is designed to improve surgical precision, personalization and outcomes for patients undergoing knee and hip replacements. The robot combines 3D, CT-based planning, AccuStop haptic technology and data analytics for total knee, total hip and partial knee patients.

The surgeon guides the robotic arm during bone preparation to execute a predetermined surgical plan and position the implant during surgery.

The single-specialty, three-operating room ASC opened in April.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
