THINK Surgical’s Post

Are you thinking about using robotics in your ASC for knee arthroplasty cases? Check this out regarding the VELYS Robotic Assisited Solution from J&J MedTech. #mycompany #ASCsolutions

Are all robotic technologies created equal? #DYK: Using VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution was associated with a 48% reduction in 90-day knee-related revisits post-operatively, compared to other robotic systems for total knee arthroplasty. This research brings us a step forward in our goal to #KeepPeopleMoving. Read more about these innovative findings: https://bit.ly/48qbgO7 #mycompany

Curious about the latest in spine surgery? See how J&J's VELYS™ SPINE and eCential Robotics are taking precision to new heights. DePuy Synthes, the Orthopaedics Company of Johnson & Johnson, is launching a proprietary dual-use robotics and standalone navigation platform developed in collaboration with eCential Robotics. The system, called the VELYS™ Active Robotic-Assisted Solution (VELYS™ SPINE), has received FDA clearance and is set to enhance spinal fusion procedures across the cervical, thoracolumbar, and sacroiliac spine. Spine surgery often involves complex and delicate procedures where precision is crucial. Advanced systems like VELYS™ SPINE can support surgeons in achieving higher accuracy, particularly in tasks such as the placement of pedicle screws and spinal fusions. Using imaging and navigation technologies, this system provides real-time guidance and 3D modeling for both pre-operative planning and intraoperative execution. Why this matters for surgeons? VELYS™ SPINE offers enhanced precision for both freehand and robotic-assisted spine surgeries, potentially reducing risks and improving surgical accuracy, setting a new standard in spine care. The integration of navigation and robotic assistance ensures each step is executed with meticulous precision, aiming to make surgeries safer and more effective. As robotics and navigation systems revolutionize spine surgery, collaborations like this are advancing patient care, expanding the reach of orthopaedics, and setting new standards for surgical excellence. 👉 Click the MedTech Dive link below to learn more about how DePuy's VELYS™ SPINE and eCential Robotics are shaping the future of spine surgery! https://lnkd.in/gd5fsmEt #RoboticSurgery #SpineSurgery #MedicalDevices

3️⃣ STAGES of #ROBOTICSURGERY - At #SRS2025, Yulun Wang, another one of the founding fathers of #surgicalrobotics, did a masterful job laying out the three stages of surgical robotics. He knows it because he's lived it. He founded Computer Motion, which was acquired by Intuitive. His system was used in the first transatlantic surgery over two decades ago. Now he's heading up SOVATO which is building the infrastructure upon with surgical robotics can reach its promise. Watch this clip but meet Yulun, CEO Cynthia Harris Perazzo and others from SOVATO at DeviceTalks West. #dtwest2024

#Article 📜 Variable Stiffness Technologies for Soft Robotics: A Comparative Approach for the STIFF-FLOP Manipulator by Niccolò Pagliarani, Luca Arleo, Stefano Albini and Matteo Cianchetti 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ggi55wZj MDPI; Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna #softrobotics #variablestiffness #fiberjamming #Abstract Soft robots offer a number of advantages over traditional rigid robots in applications such as minimally invasive surgery, where safety and dexterity are required. In previous works, the STIFF-FLOP manipulator has been introduced as a new concept of using soft materials to develop endoscopic tools with high dexterity and intrinsic safety. However, due to its inherent low stiffness, the ability to generate higher forces and stability when required remains to be further explored. In the state-of-the-art technology, there is no optimal solution that satisfies all the desired requirements in terms of miniaturized dimensions, free lumen for passing tools up to the tip, stiffness variation, and dexterity. In this paper, we compare different variable stiffness technologies and present a novel design that comprises a stiffening system based either on a fiber jamming (FJ) transition or low-melting-point alloys (LMPAs) that can be embedded in the manipulator to widen its applicability by increasing its stability and load bearing capability.
