Product Overview
VISIONAIREâ—Š Cutting Guides use the patient's own MRI and full leg X-Ray to design cutting blocks specific to that patient.
Simplified surgery. Personalized performance.
VISIONAIRE Patient Matched Technology is simplified surgery with personalized performance. The VISIONAIRE process allows Smith & Nephew to design and produce a set of cutting guides based on your patient’s unique anatomy. The VISIONAIRE set of customized cutting guides reduces the number of steps and surgical instruments required for surgery creating a simplified surgical environment. The guides are designed from surgeon specific preferences, then developed by a dedicated engineer, allowing for personalized performance.
The inner shape of the cutting guide matches the outer shape of your patient’s distal femur and proximal tibia. This hand-in-glove fit allows surgeons to make the precise bone cuts needed to position the knee implant in the optimal alignment.
