On March 25, 2021 Shelden Martin, MD performed the first successful total
shoulder arthroplasty in Scottsdale, AZ using the Smart SPACE 3D Virtual
Planner and the Shoulder Cubit Guidance digital platform. Upon completion of
the procedure Dr. Martin stated that, "I am very pleased that our first
shoulder arthroplasty utilizing Smart SPACE Cubit Guidance went extremely well.
I was impressed with the seamless and efficient integration of the
instrumentation into my normal procedural workflow, resulting in minimal
deviations from normal technique and no additional procedural time. Most
importantly, the final component positioning precisely matched our
patient-specific pre-operative surgical plan. I am very excited about the
future promise of this unique technology."
Smart SPACE is LimaCorporate's digital platform and features novel technology
and a rich pipeline of landscape-changing applications. Smart SPACE is a new
environment designed to further enable the surgeon and enhance the
predictability of surgical outcomes providing peace-of-mind to the physician.
In particular, the Shoulder Cubit Guidance is designed to deliver accurate
anatomy and instrument tracking without the challenges and disruptions of
optical surgical navigation. The Shoulder Cubit Guidance is the perfect
complement to the Smart SPACE 3D Virtual Planner, which is powered by advanced
AI algorithms developed by TechMah Medical, LLC. The Smart SPACE 3D Virtual
Planner and Shoulder Cubit Guidance are innovative and fundamental cornerstones
of the Smart SPACE ecosystem.
This pioneering digital platform is intended to allow surgeons to develop a
complete pre-operative plan, through the Smart SPACE 3D Virtual Planner and
execute the plan precisely using a combination of patient customized 3D
Positioners and the Cubit Guidance System with its proprietary sensor
technology. Surgeons will receive real time feedback regarding instrument and
implant positioning, all while maintaining their desired OR and patient set up.
The Smart SPACE Shoulder system is currently in Controlled Release within the
United States and Europe and is scheduled for full commercial release in Q4
2021.
Luigi Ferrari, LimaCorporate CEO, stated: "The successful completion of the
first Shoulder Cubit guided surgery is a significant milestone in Digital
Transformation at LimaCorporate and signals the completion of the first phase
of the Smart SPACE roadmap. I'm excited about the positive impact that this
groundbreaking technology will have in the daily lives of our surgeons and
their patients."
