UK-based med tech firm Smith+Nephew has announced the launch of its Real Intelligence suite of enabling technology solutions including its next generation robotics platform, the CORI Surgical System, in India.

Smith+Nephew first brought a robotic-assisted solution to India in 2016 with its NAVIO™ Surgical System. Since then, the NAVIO installed base has steadily grown, with multiple installations across 12 states.

The CORI Surgical System was first launched in the US during 2020 and has expanded in other global markets for both total and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty applications.

The CORI Surgical System is small, portable and perfect for today's crowded operating rooms. It includes new camera technology that is over four times faster, offers more efficient cutting with twice the volume, and aims to deliver a faster robotic-assisted surgical procedure. The CORI System uses surgeon-controlled robotics, and its modular design will enable it to be scaled across the orthopaedic service line.
