• mymobility: a digital care management platform that delivers support and guidance to patients and captures continuous data and patient-reported feedback to facilitate care, outcomes and satisfaction about patients' surgical preparation and recovery.
• Integration of WalkAI™^† Recovery Curves to help surgeons track their patients' recovery by benchmarking patient gait metrics to a matched cohort and providing predictions of their 90-day gait speed.
• Integration of WalkAI Patient Progress to help patients track and focus on their recovery through the smartphone app and see how their predicted gait speed recovery at 90 days after surgery compares with their peers.
• Integration of Clinician Mobile Experience to allow health care providers to manage and track patients on the go, enable faster enrollment and receive a better user experience.
• Persona IQ: the world's first and only smart knee implant that allows physicians and care teams to collect patient-specific kinematic data including functional knee range of motion, qualified step count, distance traveled, cadence, stride length and sampled average walking speed accessible, remotely through the mymobility platform.^‡
• Integration of Canary Quantiles™^§ Recovery Curves to offer surgeons cohort-comparative, post-operative gait parameters during the course of patient monitoring and treatment post-surgery.
• ROSA Knee: a robotically-assisted surgical system that leverages real-time insights to help surgeons optimize outcomes when performing total knee replacement surgery.
• Improvements to both software and hardware, including enhancements for optimized landmarks, knee state evaluation, cut validation and data.

^‡ Warning – The kinematic data from this device have not been demonstrated to have clinical benefit. It is not intended to be utilized for clinical decision-making, and no data have been evaluated by FDA regarding clinical benefits.

§ The Canary Quantiles™ Recovery Curves software provides health care professionals (HCPs) with additional aggregate population data when managing a patient's total knee arthroplasty (TKA) post-surgical care. HCPs can filter or select options for additional views based on patient demographics (e.g. age), to analyze trends and outcomes. The Canary Quantiles Recovery Curves software allows HCPs to view aggregate patient population data to analyze patient recovery progress and direction of outcome.

The Canary Quantiles Recovery Curves software does not control the function or parameters of the Canturio™ Tibial Extension (CTE) with Canary Health Implanted Reporting Processor (CHIRP^®) System and is not intended for active patient monitoring.

The CTE with CHIRP System is intended to provide objective kinematic data from the implanted medical device during a patient's total knee arthroplasty (TKA) post-surgical care. The kinematic data are an adjunct to other physiological parameter measurement tools applied or utilized by the physician during the course of patient monitoring and treatment post-surgery.

The device is indicated for use in patients undergoing a cemented TKA procedure that are normally indicated for at least a 58mm sized tibial stem extension.

The objective kinematic data generated by the CTE with CHIRP System are not intended to support clinical decision-making and have not been shown to provide any clinical benefit.

The CTE with CHIRP System is compatible with Zimmer Biomet Persona^® The Personalized Knee^® System.
