Total Hip Solution
The ability to improve revision rate and survivorship for any total hip surgery has never been more important.
Powered by our proprietary combination of the POLARSTEM◊ Hip Reconstruction System, R3◊ Acetabular System and OXINIUM◊ Technology, Polar3◊ has been shown to be the greatest HIP&CUP combination for all Patients and all Approaches.
According to the world’s largest national joint registry, this unique technology has shown:
- A revision rate of 1,93% at 10 years1
- The best survivorship figures of any cementless total hip construct at 10 years1
Robotic surgical system
Our aim to reshape the revision knee status quo surgery continues.
Thanks to our CORI◊ Surgical System, we now offer you also the possibility to take a personalised approach to visualizing and managing defects in KNEE REVISION using the Power of One platform.2
Sports Medicine
Advanced Healing Solutions
As the landscape of rotator cuff repair changes, we want to help you stay ahead of the curve.
Our innovative shoulder repair solutions provide surgeons with the technology to overcome specific challenges in rotator cuff repair, from a steady starting position to a precisely controlled single or double row anchor fixation solution.
The REGENETEN◊ Bioinductive Implant supports the body’s natural healing response to promote new tendon-like tissue growth and change the course of tear progression.3–7
Derived from highly purified bovine Achilles tendon, it creates an environment that is conducive to healing.3-5,8
Reimagine reconstruction
For knee surgeons seeking to address the full spectrum of ligament pathologies and concomitant injuries, our comprehensive ligament solutions portfolio features thoughtful techniques and high-quality products developed in collaboration with leading global experts. Building upon our trusted legacy of data-driven solutions, we continue to innovate with a commitment to improve patient lives.
Advanced Wound Management
Control your risks, control your outcomes
PICO◊ sNPWT has been shown to reduce the incidence of surgical site complications9 length of stay9 and overall cost of care10 following primary total joint arthroplasty (TJA)*
Prolonged operative time can increase the risk of SSI11
- Revision hip arthroplasty can take, on average, 78 mins longer compared with primary procedures12
- SSI risk can double with revision hip arthroplasties compared with primary procedures13
- The prophylactic use of incisional NPWT significantly reduced LoS by an average of 1.87 days* following revision hip and knee arthroplasties14
