Stryker Launches Prophecy Footprint Foot & Ankle Surgical Planning

Stryker has launched Prophecy Footprint, an expansion of its Prophecy surgical planning system. Prophecy Footprint offers comprehensive surgical planning across the foot.
 
This launch aligns with the tenth anniversary of Stryker’s Infinity total ankle system, a low-profile total ankle replacement implant for patients with end-stage ankle arthritis. Since its release in 2014, Infinity has been featured in multiple studies.
 
Prophecy Footprint offers comprehensive procedural considerations that address concomitant pathology at the time of total ankle replacement.
 
“Our total ankle and enabling technology portfolios are an incredible example of Stryker’s legacy and its commitment to surgeon-driven innovation and enhanced patient care,” said Patrick Fisher, VP and GMof Stryker’s Foot & Ankle business. “Celebrating a decade of remarkable success, Infinity continues to reflect our commitment to the highest levels of performance. The latest addition to our enabling technology portfolio, Prophecy Footprint, marks a significant milestone as one of the first surgical planning systems that addresses the complexities of the entire foot.”
 
According to Stryker, the Prophecy surgical planning system has been used in over 60,000 ankle procedures globally since 2012. It achieved 100% post-op neutral alignment and saves an average 38 minutes in the OR, delivering an average of $2,500 in costs saved.
 
Stryker will be showcasing Prophecy Footprint at this year’s American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons (ACFAS) Annual Meeting.
 
“Prophecy Footprint offers surgeons more detailed and comprehensive planning capabilities, especially crucial in complex ankle arthroplasty cases,” said Dr. Hodges Davis, medical director for Stryker’s Foot and Ankle business. “It enables a more integrated approach and facilitates a more complete view of the foot around the ankle, enhancing the surgical planning experience for surgeons and, as always, the ultimate goal is better clinical outcomes for our patients.”
 
Earlier this month, the company expanded its Gamma4 hip fracture nailing system by adding an intermediate nail, the RC lag screw, as well as an anti-rotation clip with sleeve components.
