Number of the day - 1st shoulder robot
"Zimmer Biomet (NYSE: ZBH) announced today that it received FDA 510(k) clearance for its ROSA Shoulder robotic-assisted surgery system. The company says this marks the clearance of the world’s first robotic surgery system for shoulder replacement. It’s also the fourth application for the ROSA (Robotic Surgical Assistant) portfolio, which includes the ROSA Knee and ROSA Hip. Zimmer Biomet said in a news release that ROSA Shoulder strengthens its shoulder implant portfolio. That includes the Identity Shoulder system and joins the ZBEdge Dynamic Intelligence platform. ZBEdge enhances the company’s digital technologies, robotics and implant solutions. The company designed ROSA Shoulder to give surgeons the flexibility to execute total shoulder replacement using anatomic or reverse techniques. It enables precise placement for improved outcomes. According to Zimmer Biomet, it’s one of the only systems that can reproduce humeral head resectioning and ease insertion of instruments into incisions by requiring no pin in the center of the glenoid during procedures. As with other ROSA applications, the system supports data-informed physician decision-making based on unique anatomies. It integrates with the newly released Signature ONE surgical planning system. Signature ONE uses a 3D image-based approach to visualization, surgical planning and patient-specific guide creation. The company plans to launch ROSA Shoulder in the U.S. in the second half of 2024."
