FYI: The CT-derived, patient-specific 3D modeling that drives
Stryker's Mako Robotic-Arm system enables accurate pre-operative
planning of implant size, orientation and alignment. The ability to
make real-time, intra-operative adjustments allows more correct
knee kinematics and soft-tissue balance prior to resection. Its ortho-
pedic advantages have been supported by more than 50 peer-
reviewed clinical studies, more than 300 scientific abstracts and
numerous ongoing clinical studies, which have demonstrated, among
other findings, that Mako unicondylar knee arthroplasties have result-
ed in a 1% revision rate and 92% patient satisfaction rate at 2 years,
and Mako total hip arthroplasties delivered higher Harris Hip Scores
and UCLA Activity Scores than manual procedures at 1 year post-op.
