2 2013 DISCLOSURES No financial interests to disclose Special Thank You to Albert Koenig, MD for great amount of information for this presentation Real Disclosure Always trying to improve my surgical techniques so that my patients can have the best results! TN

3 Computers Have Invaded Our Lives 2013 FLORIDA SPORTS MEDICINE INSTITUE

4 Why Computers and Orthopedics Simply we use CAS to improve the Surgeon s perception of the operative field and the surgery that he or she carries out CAS with Robotics has emerged as one of the most important new technologies in Orthopedic Surgery today Orthopedic Surgeon s Best Friend (BFF)

5 Computers and the Quest for the Perfect TKR Began studying CAOS in the late 1990 s. Early Passive Navigation Systems for TKR GPS for the Knee, finicky and difficult to use, clinically not ready 2nd Generation CAS (Navigation with Integrated Robotics) PiGalileo Plus Orthopedics 2004, Switzerland. 3rd Generation CAS/VPR (Virtual Planning with Robotics) Apex Robotic Technology (A.R.T.) Omni LS & Praxim; USA, France 3D Imageless Bone Morphing with Virtual Planning

6 Keys to Success in TKA Neutral Alignment Ligament Balancing Implant Fixation Appropriate Sizing Good ROM Longevity of Implants

7 Goals of Praxim s ART Virtual Robotic-TKR Maximize Accuracy and Consistency of results Customize the Procedure for every patient Minimize the Invasiveness Reduce the number of early TKR failures 2 to Malalignment and Instability of the components leading to early fixation failures and loosening.

8 Preventable Failures Sharkey et.al. Insall Award Paper Revisions in 203 patients 56% of Revisions done within 2 yrs of index TKA Reasons for the Early Failures: Fixation failure (17%) Instability (21%) Malalignment (12%) 50% Preventable CORR Nov FLORIDA SPORTS MEDICNE INSTITUTE

9 The Literature is Clear Limb alignment is crucial for TKR Mechanical Axis within 3 of neutral CAS-TKR is more Accurate than Conventional TKR CAS-TKR is also more Accurate than CCB-TKR or PSG s* *Accuracy of CT-Based Patient Specific Total Knee Arthroplasty Instruments ~ Francis B. Gonzales, MD, C. Anderson Engh, Jr., MD, Deborah Ammeen, BS, Robert Hopper, PhD AAHKS 2010 Poster Presentation.

14 CONVENTIONAL TKA FFFFLO

15 CONVENTIONAL TKA FILL THE IMPERFECT CUTS IN WITH CEMENT!!!

16 CAS-TKR Frustrating Early Passive Navigation Early CAS-TKR Navigation was performed manually. Surgeon had to physically move cutting blocks by hand in 3 dimensions at once; in the hopes of making 1 mm or 1 corrections. Difficult at best. As you moved block in one plane the cutting block often moved in two other planes. SFI & increased time. Frustrating Fiddle Factor.

17 Navigation without Automation (Is like Driving a Porsche with a Foot Pedal Engine!) VPR-TKR CAS-TKR

18 ART-TKR What is Passive Robotics? An automated device that very accurately helps or assists to perform a task but does not do the task on its own. Examples: PiGalileo Mako (partial knee replacement) A.R.T.

19 Omnilife Science & Praxim The ART of TKR Excellent APEX TKR High Flex technology CAS 3-D Bone Morphing & Virtual Robotic Surgery Allows for Imageless Custom Implantation of every APEX TKR Sizing Alignment Position

20 Omni Praxim ART Apex Robotic Technology Accurate & Robust Imageless 3D model of the Pt s anatomy Intuitive and Fast Acquisitions (Simple screens & workflow) No change in preferred Surgical approach Virtual Femoral and Tibial Surgery (prior to any bone cuts) Easily Navigable with Passive Robotics and Nano Tech. (No Fiddle Factor & High SFI) Quick Accurate Real Time Validations Consistent Excellent Results Will help to make you a better and more accurate surgeon!

76 Omni Praxim vs. Custom Cutting Blocks (Patient Specific Guides)

77 Custom Cutting Blocks or Patient Specific Guides AAHKS 2010 Poster Presentation. Accuracy of CT-Based Patient Specific Total Knee Arthroplasty Instruments ~Francis B. Gonzales, MD, C. Anderson Engh, Jr., MD, Deborah Ammeen, BS, Robert Hopper, PhD Measured radiographic anatomic alignment and full limb mechanical alignment (50 cases / 40 follow up) The mechanical axis was within 3 of zero for 63% of cases. Conclusion Leg alignment is similar to that obtained with traditional instruments but not as good as imageless computer assisted total knee arthroplasty.

78 CT / MRI Custom Cutting Blocks Increased Cost of Blocks, Scans, FTE s, Cancelations Radiation Burden Increased Time for Authorizations, time lost going for study, Pre-op planning, Shipping & Check in No Real Time Validation Takes the Computer out of the OR where you need it most. (like leaving your car s GPS at home) Not Proven & Not as Accurate as CAS (2010 AAKHS Poster Engh.) $1000/scan x 1,000,000 patients = $ 1 BILLION $1500/case x 1,000,000 patients = $1.5 BILLION (and that s only 20% market intrusion by 2015.) Who s paying? Hospitals? MD s? Patients? Industry?

79 Omni Praxim iblock Low Cost Extremely Accurate Validated Imageless Custom Implantation of every case for sizing, alignment and position. Virtual Robotic Surgery Cut through large Slots, not 4 or 5 in 1 cutting blocks. No Added Cost to the Health Care System. No Radiation No loss of time ( average time 49 minutes / case) Consistent Excellent Results case after case

80

81 CCB / PSG Takes the Computer out of the OR where you need it most. (like leaving your car s GPS at home)

82 VALUE = Product vs. Cost

83 The Bottom Line Omni Praxim s ibot Makes me a better and more accurate surgeon affording my patients their best potential TKR outcomes and that s what it s really all about. FFFFF
