Corin Reaches Milestones in Enabling Technologies for Knee and Hip

Corin announced that the Apollo platform has been utilized in over 500 total knee arthroplasty cases; all automatically cloud-connected and loaded within CorinConnect. ApolloKnee remains the only system capable of delivering a pre-resection robotic assessment of knee balance through the full range of motion.

ApolloKnee integrates a robotic knee balancer capable of applying a personalized and dynamic force between 50 and 150N, adjustable to within 10N increments. This enables surgeons to simultaneously assess the medial and lateral compartments of the knee independently, and throughout the entire range of motion before making any bone cuts.

ApolloKnee also features autonomous planning that adapts to any alignment preference, an efficient gesture-controlled workflow and the Apollo Robot to precisely implement femoral and tibial cuts. The CorinConnect surgeon portal seamlessly integrates pre- and intraoperative data with postoperative outcomes, enabling continuous data collection for enhanced clinical decision-making.

Following FDA 510(k) clearance and a multi-site, limited market release of ApolloKnee, Corin announced the global launch in June after earning additional regulatory approvals in Europe and Australia.

Further, Corin celebrated the successful completion of 50,000 Optimized Positioning System (OPSInsight)-enabled total hip arthroplasty procedures. OPSInsight is a dynamic analysis designed to optimize implant position, stability and patient outcomes by preoperatively assessing individual spinopelvic mobility and biomechanics.

OPSInsight integrates functional imaging and hip analysis inside an interactive, cloud-based 3D planning interface, allowing surgeons to access and adjust the initial plan proposed by Corin’s team of engineers.

Surgeons can then visualize, in 3D, the biomechanics of each patient’s hip during daily activities and plan an optimized implant position for that unique patient. The preoperative analysis includes critical factors such as leg length, offset, bony and prosthetic impingement, bearing contact mechanics, stability, edge loading and more.

Anonymized data from each preoperative analysis is stored in CorinConnect, a cloud-based digital ecosystem, which can be used to discover actionable insights that empower surgeons to refine clinical decision-making over time. By benchmarking global patient outcomes, Corin aims to continuously improve surgical procedures and accelerate innovation through the insights uniquely provided by this ecosystem.
