Smith+Nephew announced the introduction of its JOURNEY II ROX Total Knee Solution – a reverse hybrid construct for total knee arthroplasty. This new procedural product solution aims to provide surgeons with the clinical advantage of an advanced bearing material and anatomic design combined with the efficiency1 and potential long-term tibia fixation of a cementless knee. The JOURNEY II ROX Total Knee Solution combines several of Smith+Nephew's high performance technologies in one construct - the characteristic kinematics2-8 of JOURNEY II TKA, the clinical history 9,10 of CONCELOC Advanced Porous Titanium and the wear resistance of OXINIUM Oxidized Zirconium.

11-13 The JOURNEY II ROX Total Knee Solution is also compatible with Smith+Nephew's CORI Surgical System enabling surgeons to perform the procedure using next generation robotics-assisted technology. Smith+Nephew will preview the JOURNEY II ROX Total Knee Solution in its booth (#501) at the 2022 Annual Meeting of the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons (AAHKS) from November 3-6 in Dallas, TX. Smith+Nephew will also showcase at AAHKS, its Power Of One mobile exhibit - an interactive experience focused on the capabilities of handheld robotics and computer-guided surgery using the CORI™ Surgical System.

It is small, portable, and does not require CT or MRI, making it a well-placed solution for hospitals, Ambulatory Surgical Centres, and Hospital Outpatient Departments.
