      AESCULAP® OrthoPilot® Elite

      Trust in your ambition

      OrthoPilot® Elite is based on innovative technology and more than 25 years of experience. That combination takes standards of surgical precision to a new level. Many healthcare professionals are motivated by the desire to help people live better, more pain-free lifes. In orthopaedics, precision sets the standard for quality of life: a few millimeters or a few degrees often determine the long-term success of a procedure. That excellence is our ambition.

      AESCULAP® OrthoPilot® Elite

      Why should you consider OrthoPilot®?

      A new surgical experience

      OrthoPilot® Elite is part of an integrated system. The surgeon is the heart of that system. OrthoPilot® Elite puts surgeons in the control center of an integrated, perfectly coordinated endoprosthesis system. Hardware, software, implants, instruments – they’re all based on the same high standards of quality, but now they feature never-before-seen opportunities for interaction as well. The result: exceptionally effective synergy between team and technology.

      Ease-of-use taken to new levels

      As the core component in a flexible system, OrthoPilot® Elite integrates excellently into surgical procedures and stands for efficient processes. With superior software and a one-of-a-kind multifunctional instrument, OrthoPilot® Elite represents a balanced, innovative man-machine interface. Its intuitive controls give OrthoPilot® Elite users the freedom to concentrate on what’s most important: the surgical process. OrthoPilot® Elite – your partner in the operating room.

      Create more transparency

      Designed to make life easier: Documentation takes up a lot of healthcare professionals’ time. OrthoPilot® Elite frees surgical teams from these responsibilities, because it doesn't just display important information – it also documents it. Surgical results are displayed and documented in a clearly organized, informative final screen, including the resections performed, the implant sizes used, the pre- and post-operative leg axes, and the duration of the procedure.

      Work more precisely and ergonomically

      New concept. New comfort. The innovative multifunctional instrument was developed to help speed up processes and significantly improve ergonomic features. The innovative new multifunctional instrument combines several individual instruments into one, and was developed specifically for assisted navigation with the OrthoPilot® Elite and TKA 6 software. It combines simple, intuitive handling with cutting-edge technology, allowing surgeons to operate precisely and ergonomically.

      “The OrthoPilot® Elite has convinced me with many new features such as tibia rotation navigation and additional references, e.g. the transepicondylar line and the Whiteside's line. Especially the multitool that combines many different functions in one instrument makes my daily surgery easier and safer.”

      Essential results in navigation support

      There is solid evidence that computer-navigated systems such as the OrthoPilot® for total knee or hip arthroplasties have a wide range of clinical benefits for the patients undergoing these very common procedures, including less blood loss and better postoperative function. For adequately experienced surgeons, studies have shown that these procedures do not lead to time loss, but might even be associated with time gain.
