VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution

VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution

Sah Orthopaedic Associates is one of the first in the Bay area, and the only group at the Institute in Fremont, to offer the VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution, the latest advancement that helps surgeons perform knee replacement surgery that is tailored to each patient with the goal to get patients back to life faster.  Together with the ATTUNE® Knee System, VELYS Digital Surgery offers solutions to help personalize the knee replacement journey with preoperative patient engagement, surgical planning, surgical implementation, and post-operative support.

In 2019 there were approximately 900,000 primary knee replacements performed in the United States. Now, people with knee pain are spending an increased amount of time looking for information about knee replacement technology, many searching for techniques that provide improved outcomes such as increased movement and shortened recovery time.  Ultimately, the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution is designed to help ensure predictable results to improve outcomes, increase mobility, and help patients recover from total knee replacements faster.

The VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution offers the following features to help surgeons visualize the procedure and predict joint stability:

  • NATURAL CONTROL™ Technology to help execute precise, reproducible surgeon-controlled cuts
  • Natural Joint Assessment for optimal ATTUNE Knee Implant positioning
  • PROADJUST™ Planning to help surgeons personalize alignment and balance
  • ADAPTIVE TRACKING™ Technology including a high-speed camera, triple-drive motion technology, and PURESIGHT™ Hydrophobic Optical Reflectors for accurate, consistent execution
  • Procedural Joint Verification for post-resection assessment to help surgeons verify final gap balance and overall leg alignment

Every knee is different, as is every patient requiring a knee replacement procedure, and that’s why this advanced technology is expected to elevate patients’ knee replacement experiences.

Benefits of robotic-assisted knee replacement using the Velys system include:

  • Potentially less pain and faster recovery than traditional joint replacements
  • Tailored surgical plans based on personal anatomy and accurate data for better joint stability
  • Safety and efficiency provided by the avoidance of hospital exposure and state-of-the-art joint replacement technology allowing same-day and outpatient discharges
