Exactech announced the international debut of the GPS Ankle navigation system for ankle replacement, in Australia. This marks the first use of navigation technology for ankle replacement surgery outside of the U.S., where it first launched in 2024.
GPS Ankle is currently under special access in Australia.
GPS Ankle is a first-of-its-kind technology that employs proprietary active tracker technology and a compact touchscreen tablet in the sterile field to provide surgeons with dynamic intraoperative feedback throughout their cases. The system is compatible with the company’s flagship Vantage Total Ankle, including the mobile bearing implant, which was used during the procedure in Australia.
“The international introduction of GPS Ankle represents a significant milestone for Exactech and underscores our commitment to delivering first-to-world, smart surgical solutions across the globe,” Exactech President and CEO Darin Johnson said. “By seamlessly integrating advanced technology with real-time analytics, GPS empowers surgeons to make data-driven decisions throughout total joint surgery. We are thrilled that Australia is our first international market to use this groundbreaking technology, and we look forward to expanding its continued positive impact within Australia and beyond.”
