Meet ROSA, the Robot-Assisted Surgical Assistant

The ROSA Knee System gives your surgeon even greater accuracy1, to help ensure your knee replacement fits and functions as precisely as possible.

Since robot assisted knee surgery is associated with less pain, reduced use of pain medication, fewer physiotherapy sessions, and overall improved knee function after surgery2, there has never been a better time for your knee replacement surgery.

Robot assisted surgery has also been associated with shorter hospital stays,3 which means you may be able to return to the things you love sooner than you might expect4.

Confidence in Your Surgery

The success of your knee replacement surgery is closely linked to the fit and function of the new knee implant5. The ROSA Knee System provides your surgeon with a 3D model of your knee, allowing them to plan each step of your procedure with greater precision. By knowing what to expect, your surgeon can determine in advance how best to fit your implant, allowing them to offer you the best outcome based on your unique anatomy. Depending on your needs and their experience, your surgeon can choose between three clinically proven knee implant systems 6,7.

A Second Expert Opinion

During surgery, the ROSA Knee System combines precise sensors, live data, and a robotic arm with your surgeon's skills and experience. This helps your surgeon place your implant accurately and check the joint once the implant is in place. This allows your surgeon to make final, precise adjustments before completing the procedure, resulting in more accurate implant positioning than with conventional methods1. It's a bit like having a second expert in the room.

ROSA and Your Care Team, Helping You Enjoy Life Again

Your surgeon and care team will create a detailed recovery plan and schedule follow up appointments with you. They will closely monitor you throughout your recovery to help ensure you can return to the things you love as quickly as possible.
