Exactech Launches Groundbreaking GPS Ankle Navigation System for Surgery<\/strong><\/p>\n GAINESVILLE, Fla. \u2013 April 28, 2025<\/strong> \u2013 Exactech, a leader in medical technology, has introduced the GPS Ankle, the world’s first navigation system designed specifically for ankle replacement surgery. This innovative system was first used by Dr. Timothy Schneider in Melbourne, Australia, marking a historic moment as the first international application of this technology outside the United States.<\/p>\n \u201cThe launch of GPS Ankle shows Exactech’s dedication to providing innovative surgical solutions worldwide,\u201d said Darin Johnson, Exactech’s President and CEO. "By integrating advanced technology and real-time data, GPS Ankle assists surgeons in making informed decisions during surgery. We are excited to have Australia as our first international market for this revolutionary technology."<\/p>\n Dr. Schneider expressed enthusiasm about the system, stating, "GPS Ankle enhances the precision of my ankle replacement surgeries. It offers in-the-moment feedback, allowing for adjustments to align with the surgical plan. This flexibility and accuracy are game-changers for both surgeons and patients.\u201d<\/p>\n The GPS Ankle features cutting-edge active tracker technology and a compact touchscreen tablet, enabling surgeons to receive dynamic feedback during procedures. Initially launched in the U.S. in late 2024, the system works seamlessly with Exactech\u2019s Vantage\u00ae Total Ankle System, which includes a mobile bearing implant used in the recent surgery.<\/p>\n Part of Exactech’s Active Intelligence\u00ae ecosystem, GPS Ankle provides affordable and data-rich solutions aimed at improving patient outcomes. In preclinical tests, it demonstrated impressive accuracy, staying within 2mm and 2 degrees compared to CT-based surgical plans.<\/p>\n Currently, GPS Ankle is available under special access in Australia.
