The ultimate knee replacement experience

The most common reasons people put off knee replacement

I don’t have time for knee replacement

Between pre-surgery screenings and post-surgery recovery, it’s understandable to feel this way. Good news, the CORI surgical system doesn’t require the same time-consuming and costly pre-surgery scans that other systems do. Instead, it creates a digital map of your knee right in the operating room, allowing your surgeon to plan and execute your surgery to precisely match your unique anatomy. This added level of precision is designed to support a quicker, smoother recovery. In fact, most patients are up and walking the same day and back home within 24-hours.

My knee won’t feel “right” when it’s done

Your natural knee is complex. It rotates as it bends and is a key part of your overall balance and stability as you move about. Recreating these shapes and forces is key to a good outcome. The CORI Surgical System uses a special tool called a Digital Tensioner which gives your surgeon the real-time information necessary to restore the natural gaps and tensions in your knee. In other words, it helps your new knee feel balanced and stable – not too tight or too loose.

I can live with the pain I have now

This comes down to a choice only you can make. For many patients, “managing pain” means that pain is a part of their everyday life, impacting how they get around, keeping them awake and preventing them from taking part in many of the activities that help make life more enjoyable. Ultimately each patient must decide between the addressing the issue that is causing the pain or continuing to live with it knowing that it won’t go away on its own.

JOURNEY◊ II AKS implant wear

Just like the surfaces of your natural knee joint, friction created when the surfaces of a knee implant rub together can cause these surfaces to wear down over time. This type of implant wear is a leading cause of knee replacement failure.

Knee Surgery Basics

Since the first knee replacement surgery in 1968, there has been enormous progress in improving the surgical techniques and medical devices used to replace damaged bone and cartilage in the knee.

What is Knee Replacement Surgery?

If you are considering knee replacement surgery, you have plenty of company. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality reports that more than 600,000 knee replacements are performed each year in the United States.
