M.O.R.E. EDUCATION PROGRAM ON KINEMATIC ALIGNMENT

MyKA is Medacta’s comprehensive platform for Kinematic Alignment in TKA, a technique that aims at personalizing joint line reconstruction through anatomic resurfacing, with little-to-no ligament releases. Dedicated instruments and planning tools are combined with the GMK Sphere medially stabilized knee system, that facilitates taking full advantage of the kinematic approach due to the features intrinsic to its design.

The M.O.R.E. Education Program on Kinematic Alignment has been created to provide continuous support to surgeons, with comprehensive surgeon-to-surgeon interaction to assist with the adoption of this technique. It is Medacta’s mission to reduce the challenges associated with learning a new system and ensure that no surgeon is ever left alone at any point of their learning curve.
