MORE NATURAL MOTION

You want a knee that feels normal after knee replacement surgery. That’s why Smith+Nephew spent years developing the JOURNEY II Total Knee System. Designed to offer a smoother recovery, improved function and higher patient satisfaction.

 

DURABILITY MATTERS

Your implant should stand up to the daily wear-and-tear your active life demands. After more than a decade of work, we created our exclusive OXINIUM Oxidized Zirconium metal alloy. We then used this unique metal in our total knee implants.

A UNIQUE PLAN

Robotics-assisted surgery using the CORI Surgical System helps your surgeon take all the measurements and make all the calculations necessary to plan your specific surgery in a virtual, 3D environment – before any bone is cut. The system then helps your surgeon perform your surgery using that same plan.

DURABILITY MATTERS

Your implant should stand up to the daily wear-and-tear your active life demands. After more than a decade of work, we created our exclusive OXINIUM Oxidized Zirconium metal alloy. We then used this unique metal in our total hip implants.

HIP RESURFACING

A pioneer in hip resurfacing implants, Smith+Nephew’s BHR implant offers younger, active male patients an alternative to total hip replacement.

THE RIGHT OPTION FOR YOU

Each patient is different and so are their needs. That’s why Smith+Nephew provides your surgeon with the options to choose what’s right for you. Whether it’s an implant made from OXINIUM, hip resurfacing or different surgical approaches, make sure you work with a surgeon who can match the right combination to meet your needs.

Implants designed for

+ Strength
+ Durability
+ Biocompatibility

and available only from Smith+Nephew.

OXINIUM implants are available in a wide range of options for  full and partial joint replacement. They can also be used with other innovative technologies in robotics-assisted surgery and minimally invasive procedures.
