“It’s exciting to be one of the first two hospitals in Europe to
use Stryker’s Mixed Reality Guidance System,” said Professor
Berhouet. “I am also pleased to be leading a pilot study to
investigate the safety and effectiveness of this new technology,
alongside three other centres in France.”
“The Blueprint Mixed Reality System allows me to tailor my
shoulder joint replacement procedures to the unique needs and
anatomy of my patients,” Dr. Neyton added.
Designed in collaboration with a team of world-class surgeons,
the Blueprint Mixed Reality Guidance System combines Stryker's
innovative software with the Microsoft HoloLens 2 headset, allowing
the surgeon to track the position and orientation of surgical
instrumentation in the physical environment. Blueprint Mixed
Reality Guidance System allows surgeons and their instruments to be
‘guided’ by 3D images and guidance widgets, which can be displayed
on the patient and in the surgeon’s line of sight without
disrupting normal workflow. The MR Guidance system received a CE
mark at the end of 2023 and the first surgeries globally were
performed in the U.S. and Canada in December 2023.
“This latest tool builds upon a decade of Blueprint's presence
in Europe, and we continue innovating to ensure the platform has
the potential to further benefit surgeons and patients alike,” said
Markus Ochs, vice president and general manager of Stryker’s
European Trauma & Extremities division.
