Insight Medical Systems completed the first clinical cases with its ARVIS® wearable augmented reality navigation system in conjunction with DJO’s EMPOWR™ implants.
This milestone not only emphasizes the value of ARVIS in clinical use, but also the adaptability of this technology to a range of clinical settings. In the last two weeks, ARVIS was used at an orthopedic specialty hospital, community hospitals, large research hospitals and an ambulatory surgical center. This list includes sites where the use of computer-assisted surgery is standard, but also facilities that have historically not had access to navigation technology.
With its proprietary surgical augmented reality eyepiece, ARVIS was designed to be streamlined and cost-effective, making it accessible to any facility where orthopedic surgery is being conducted.
“We believe technology should be an integral part of orthopedic surgery, but its benefits shouldn’t be limited to a handful of hospitals that can afford million-dollar robots. It should be accessible to smaller community hospitals and ASC’s where an increasing proportion of elective surgeries are being performed,” said Nick van der Walt, CEO.
