AI-Powered Robotics: Monogram Bets On ‘Active’ Assistance With FDA-Cleared Robotic Knee System To Outperform Stryker’s Haptics

Monogram Is Integrating Refinements Into System, Particularly In The Cutting Mechanism

Beyond the US market, Monogram is actively pursuing regulatory approvals abroad, with India as a key target. The company has partnered with Shalby Hospitals, one of India’s largest orthopedic hospital networks, to conduct clinical trials and accelerate regulatory clearance in the region.

Monogram is betting on AI-driven automation to enhance precision, efficiency, and implant longevity
Key Takeaways

·Monogram’s mBôS TKA System has received FDA clearance, but the company must demonstrate real-world clinical success and secure surgeon adoption to gain market traction.

·Unlike Stryker’s haptics-based Mako system, Monogram’s approach aims for greater autonomy, faster procedure times, and reduced surgeon fatigue – a potential game-changer if validated through clinical use.

·Monogram is leveraging clinical trials in India to generate key data for broader adoption, with Shalby Hospitals and Reliance Life Sciences playing a vital role in regulatory approval and market entry.

Monogram Technologies’ FDA clearance for its mBôS TKA System – a robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty platform – signals its entry into a market dominated by well-established players like Stryker, Zimmer Biomet, and Smith & Nephew.
