Problem
Orthopedic joint replacement surgeries often rely on manual techniques that can lead to variability in implant positioning, longer operative times, and increased risk of complications, especially in complex cases.
Solution
Changmugu develops AI‑driven orthopedic surgical robots, such as the ROPA and NAVIplasty platforms, that assist surgeons in performing total knee and hip arthroplasties with high precision. The systems integrate pre‑operative imaging, real‑time navigation, and robotic arm guidance to align implants according to patient‑specific anatomy. By automating bone preparation and providing haptic feedback, the robots reduce surgeon fatigue and improve consistency across procedures. Clinical sites, including major Chinese hospitals, have adopted the technology for both standard and complex joint replacements, reporting streamlined workflows and enhanced postoperative outcomes.
Target Audience
Primary customers are orthopedic surgery departments in hospitals and specialty clinics that perform total knee and hip replacement procedures, as well as surgical centers seeking to adopt robotic assistance for joint arthroplasty.
Features
- Robotic arm with six‑degree‑of‑freedom control for accurate bone resection and implant placement
- Integrated navigation suite that fuses CT/MRI data with intra‑operative imaging for patient‑specific planning
- Real‑time haptic feedback and safety limits to prevent excessive force or deviation from the planned trajectory
- Automated workflow modules for total knee, total hip, and revision arthroplasty procedures
- Compatibility with a range of implant systems and seamless data export to hospital information systems
