Orthopaedics
and elevate the overall knee replacement experience. “Patient outcomes are the top priority for
DePuy Synthes. We are now coming up to ten years with the ATTUNE knee system and the PROMs are exceptional. We currently have two knee implants but want to offer a broader array. While we will continue to develop this, our key focus will be to communicate these PROMS to clinicians. “The more concise we can be about the benefits of the technology, the easier it will be for clinicians to decide whether it’s going to be better for their patient. We need to present the data to clinicians, then work with partners in the NHS to ensure these innovations are made available. It starts with communicating clearly on what the benefits are,” commented Gavin. “Ultimately, the future of orthopaedics
requires a combined digital surgery approach, alongside robotic solutions, to continue to transform the way surgeries are performed. The innovation taking place in robotic assisted orthopaedic surgery is very exciting – it helps the surgeon to bring their best to theatre every single time,” he continued. “To provide patients with the right solutions, it’s important that MedTech companies and healthcare facilities remain on top of trends in
patient demand, developing product offerings that leverage the best that technology has to offer. I want to focus our portfolio on patient outcomes, bringing technologies to market that really make a difference. “Efficiency is also high on our agenda. There
are also lots of opportunities within orthopaedics to create efficiencies. But it isn’t about efficiency for efficiency’s sake – it is about cutting waste, while ensuring we provide the best service, with technologies that provide patient benefits,” Gavin concluded.
