Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc. (NYSE and SIX: ZBH), a global medical technology leader, announced that it is highlighting bold innovations across its broad robotics and musculoskeletal portfolio at the 2025 annual meeting of the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons (AAHKS).
During the meeting, the company's booth will prominently feature its broad knee and hip portfolio of customer-centric solutions and infection solutions, along with the latest robotic technologies and data solutions to meet a vast array of surgeon techniques and preferences. Zimmer Biomet will also showcase the surgeon-guided robotic technology recently acquired through the Monogram Technologies Inc. acquisition.
"Orthopedics is at a pivotal moment," said Ivan Tornos, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Zimmer Biomet. "As the population ages and expectations rise, patients are demanding more: less disruption, faster recovery and care that fits their lives. Surgeons need solutions that match this urgency, and that's why we've engineered next-generation hip and knee implants and curated an ecosystem of robotics, digital platforms and AI. This isn't incremental innovation — it's the most ambitious innovation cycle in our company's history, positioning Zimmer Biomet to deliver the industry's most comprehensive and adaptable suite of orthopedic robotics and navigation technologies designed to elevate surgical precision and transform patient outcomes."
The highlights at the Zimmer Biomet booth (#1206) include:
Digital and Technology Solutions
- mBôs™ TKA System : a CT-based, semi-autonomous, total knee arthroplasty (TKA) robotic technology that received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance. A surgeon-guided fully autonomous version of this technology is currently in clinical trials.
- ROSA® Knee with OptimiZe ™: the newest version of the ROSA® Knee System that customizes and looks to enhance the surgeon's experience with personalized and intelligent surgical planning, new positioning, tracking and alignment features to improve accuracy1 and reduce user variability,2 pending U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance.
- TMINI® Miniature Robotic System : a state-of-the-art miniature, handheld, wireless CT-based robotic system designed to enable accurate and precise implant placement.
- ZBEdge® Analytics : a data platform that delivers intra-operative, mobility and outcome insights directly on a smartphone application, enabling surgeons to objectively assess performance and understand the potential impact of clinical decisions on patient recovery.
- mymobility® Care Management Platform : a digital care management platform that delivers continuous data and patient-reported feedback to facilitate care, outcomes and satisfaction about patients' surgical preparation and recovery.
Knee Reconstruction Technologies
- Oxford® Cementless Partial Knee : the only FDA-approved mobile cementless partial knee implant in the U.S. that has been shown to be efficient3,4 in the operating room and has been proven to have excellent survivorship5,6 worldwide.
- Persona® OsseoTi® Keel Tibia : a cementless tibia for TKA with a 3D printed porous tray that provides stable initial and biological fixation and intra-operative versatility.7
- Persona® SoluTion™ PPS® Femur : a knee implant component designed to serve as an alternative metal for patients with certain metal sensitivities like nickel and cobalt-chrome (Co, Cr, Ni) and bone cement that features a porous coating for cementless fixation and leverages a proprietary surface treatment designed to enhance wear performance.8,9
- Persona IQ® The Smart Knee® : a first-to-world smart knee implant that captures patient-specific gait and range of motion metrics directly from the knee during patient monitoring to provide post-operative recovery insights10,11 and trends, allowing care teams to monitor and personalize the TKA patient experience.10-12
Hip Reconstruction Technologies
- Z1® Femoral Hip System : offers an expansive size range and three distinct neck options designed to address a variety of patient anatomies and reconstructive needs.
- OrthoGrid Hip AI® : an AI-powered, fluoroscopy-based technology that provides direct anterior hip surgeons with intuitive and instantaneous intra-operative tools to assist surgeons in achieving the desired surgical outcomes for component positioning.13
- HAMMR® Automated Hip Impaction System : designed to address surgeon strain, fatigue and repetitive motion associated with the traditional mallet.
