Stryker introduced the Insignia hip stem at this year’s American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) meeting.
The implant was engineered for optimized fit and ease of implantation in muscle-sparing approaches for total hip and hemiarthroplasty. Insignia is compatible with Make SmartRobotics via Total Hip 4.1 software, which uses 3D CT-based data to capture unique anatomy. Strykwe evaluated data from over 1,300 CT scans to design a device that recreates patient biomechanics for total hip surgery.
A TriStage broach features three tooth geometries, size-specific collar lengths, and a range of femoral offsets across a broad range of femoral morphology. A low-profile shoulder, short stem lengths, and distal relief help ease lateralization and insertion.
"We're excited to now offer surgeons a collared, fully HA-coated hip stem designed for muscle-sparing approaches like direct anterior," Katherine Truppi, Stryker’s VP and GM for Hips told the press. "Insignia joins Stryker's family of market-leading hip stems to complement our primary hip portfolio. Compatible with Mako SmartRobotics, Insignia delivers patient-specific fit, function and flexibility, allowing surgeons to further enhance patient outcomes."
Stryker will hold live demos, exhibitions, and lunches feature Insignia and its Advanced Digital Healthcare portfolio throughout the AAOS meeting.
