THINK Surgical’s TMINI Miniature Robotic System has received FDA 510(k) marketing clearance.
TMINI includes a wireless robotic handpiece that assists surgeons in performing total knee replacement. Following a CT-based three-dimensional surgical plan, the TMINI robotic handpiece automatically compensates for surgeon hand movement to locate bone pins along precisely defined planes. Cutting guides are then connected to the bone pins for accurate bone resection. TMINI replaces many of the instruments currently used for knee replacement surgery.
THINK Surgical is committed to an open implant library, and will continue to add new implant options to the platform over time. This open implant approach combined with the ease of use of the TMINI system should appeal to a broad customer base who may have been resistant to robotics until now.
“With its small footprint, open implant platform and intuitive workflow, the TMINI system opens up robotic possibilities for more clinics, operating rooms, and surgeons,” said Stuart Simpson, President and CEO of THINK Surgical.
