There are more high-acuity orthopedic procedures going to the outpatient setting today, including total joint replacements. Orthopedic technology is developing for minimally invasive procedures, and new pain management protocol and post-surgical care allow patients to leave the outpatient centers within 23 hours after surgery. "It's been a natural progression over many years where we have seen a gradual reduction in the duration of hospital stay after joint replacement," says Robert Greenhow, MD, of Peak Orthopedics & Spine in Lone Tree, Colo. "This has been based on less invasive and improved surgical techniques, use of regional anesthesia and peri-articular injections, less tubes and drains and a reduction in the use of narcotics."

We are proud to announce that in October 2016 we reached the significant milestone of 20,000 GMK Sphere implanted worldwide.

The implant has been design to allow an easy and straightforward insertion, especially through AMIS approach.

GMK Sphere, MyKnee and GMK Efficiency Single Use Instrumentation Take the Stage at Current Concepts in Joint Replacement Spring Meeting

“As more outpatient facilities look to add total knee replacements to their caseload, a problem often arises: Reprocessing the procedure's big, heavy instrument trays can be too tough for smaller centers with limited sterile processing capabilities. To solve that problem, Medacta has created a single-use knee system.”

It is with great pride and pleasure that Medacta announces a new milestone achievement: more than 200,000 AMIS procedures worldwide!

We are proud to announce that AMIStem-H was just awarded the ODEP 5A rating, confirming the promising results of the 3A* score of the last years.

As more outpatient facilities look to add total knee replacements to their caseload, a problem often arises: Reprocessing the procedure's big, heavy instrument trays can be too tough for smaller centers with limited sterile processing capabilities. To solve that problem, Medacta has created a single-use knee system.

Reflected long-standing commitment to surgical education and training for improved patient outcomes. Coincided with 200,000th Anterior Minimally Invasive Surgery procedures, 100,000th AMIStem Hip implantation, 40,000th MyKnee Patient Matched Technology Instrumentation, presentation of the New MySpine Low Profile Pedicle Screw Guidance Technology.

The Medacta M.O.R.E. APP is our new application for the Medacta Orthopaedic Research and Education Institute.

Applications for the Medacta 2016 visiting fellowship are open throughout the year to orthopaedic specialists based on their national regulations, as well whether they are younger than 45 years of age or are residents in their last year of residency.

As industry-leading innovators and collaborators, both Solvay and Medacta have been at the forefront of the trend toward single-use medical instrumentation.

At the AAOS, Medacta showcased its latest surgical innovations, including its GMK Efficiency Single Use Knee Instruments and Mpact Dual Mobility Acetabular System, and provided an update on its pioneering MySpine Patient-Matched Technology.

We are proud to announce that on November 23rd – 24th 2015 Medacta successfully held the 1st M.O.R.E. ASIAN AMIS LEARNING CENTER in Singapore.

Francesco Siccardi, executive vice president of Medacta International and son of the founder, tells OTW, “Years ago I watched my father suffer after undergoing a total hip replacement. He and I both knew that there had to be a better way. We could see the advantages of the anterior hip approach, and we were personally motivated to find a way to give patients a superior surgical experience..."

The night before the 200th AMIS Learning Center, Medacta will be sponsoring an event on VuMedi at 6pm MDT. This live panel discussion will feature a global faculty, Dr. Frederic Laude (Paris, FR) and Dr. Chien-Wen Liew (Adelaide, AUS), moderated by Dr. Tyler Goldberg (Austin, TX). This event will focus on the how a global education platform has had an impact on a personal level.

It is with great pride and pleasure that Medacta announces a new milestone for the M.O.R.E. Institute and the AMIS Education Platform, which once again strengthens its leading position in Anterior approach education!

Die minimal invasive Hüftchirurgie, wie sie seit rund 10 Jahren im Einsatz ist, hat die herkömmliche Hüftoperation revolutioniert

Das Bezirkskrankenhaus Lienz und das ElisabethinenKrankenhaus in Klagenfurt sind Referenzzentren und Ausbildungsstätten für minimal invasive Hüftchirurgie und "my knee"-Endoprothetik. So bot sich Kärnten ideal für einen Kongress zur Hüft- und Kniechirurgie ideal an. In Pörtschach am Wörthersee diskutierten 150 Ärzte aus zehn Nationen drei Tage lang über die verschiedenen Perspektiven und Fragestellungen modernster orthopädischer Eingriffe. Die wissenschaftliche Leitung des Kongresses stand unter Patronanz der Lienzer Ärzte Valjdet Saciri und Herbert Strobl. Den Kärntner Teil deckten Manfred Kuschnig und Rupert Jesenko ab.

Pörtschach am Wörthersee war drei Tage lang Schauplatz des internationalen Kongresses, bei dem 150 Ärzte über Hüft- und Knieendoprothetik diskutierten – Dr. Valjdet Saciri und Dr. Herbert Strobl, Fachärzte für Orthopädie am Bezirkskrankenhaus Lienz, hatten bereits zum 5. Mal die wissenschaftliche Leitung dieses hochkarätig besetzten Kongresses über. Die minimal invasive Hüftchirurgie, wie sie seit rund zehn Jahren im Einsatz ist, hat die herkömmliche Hüftoperation revolutioniert. Bereits zum fünften Mal steht diese AMIS©-Methode (anterior minimal-invasive surgery) im Vordergrund eines medizinischen Kongresses in Österreich.

In der Medizin gilt es sich laufend über neue Methoden und medizinische Therapieformen zu informieren und sich diese anzueignen. In der Funktion eines Lehrkrankenhauses der Medizinischen Universität Graz werden seit Jahren am Elisabethinen-Krankenhaus in Klagenfurt Medizin-Studierende unterrichtet. „Aus- und Fortbildung wird in unserem Hause groß geschrieben. Neben unserem Lehrauftrag, den wir für die junge Ärzteschaft wahrnehmen, ist uns eine regelmäßige Weiterbildung unseres medizinischen und pflegerischen Personals sehr wichtig. Darüber hinaus schulen wir auch KollegInnen aus anderen Einrichtungen“, erläutert Primar Dr. Manfred Kuschnig, Medizinischer Direktor am Elisabethinen-Krankenhaus Klagenfurt und Leiter der Abteilung für Orthopädie. So geschehen im Rahmen des Ausbildungsprogramms der Amis®- Hüfttechnik (Anterior Minimally Invasive Surgery).
