Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc. announced an exclusive, multi-year co-marketing agreement with Surgical Planning Associates, Inc. to commercialize HipInsight™, the first FDA-cleared mixed reality navigation system for total hip replacement. HipInsight is customized for Zimmer Biomet's hip implant portfolio and allows surgeons to use Microsoft HoloLens 2 glasses to visualize a hologram of the patient's pelvic anatomy projected on the pelvis during surgery to support implant placement and alignment. HipInsight, the latest addition to the OptiVu™ Mixed Reality portfolio of applications, further expands the capabilities of the ZBEdge™ suite of integrated smart, digital and robotic technologies designed to deliver transformative data-powered insights with the goal of optimizing patient outcomes.

The HipInsight System provides a detailed, Computed Tomography (CT)-based, 3D surgical plan that includes information important for accurate and efficient implant positioning, including planned component size, pelvic tilt, leg length and offset change. During the surgery, the HipInsight system uses mixed-reality glasses and the position of a smart registration tool to overlay holograms in real time on the patient anatomy so that the surgeon can proceed with the surgical plan in direct view.
