Dr. Dugal James performed the first total knee arthroplasty with Zimmer Biomet's Rosa Knee Robot at St. John of God Bendigo (Australia) Hospital.
Here are three things to know:
1. The Rosa system personalizes the surgical plan based on each patient's unique bone and soft tissue anatomy prior to the procedure.
2. Zimmer Biomet acquired the Rosa Robotics portfolio from Medtech in 2016.
3. The system is currently pending FDA 510(k) review in the U.S.
