Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry (AOANJRR).*Evidence referenced in this release used ZUK data and is not specific to JOURNEY II UK. Smith+Nephew’s JOURNEY II UK System is now available in North America and Europe for partial knee applications. “Adding to these benefits, JOURNEY II UK is also designed to deliver high patient satisfaction.” 12-13 Our customers want it because partial knees enable faster recovery 6-8 and improved functionality 5,7-11 for their patients,” said Skip Kiil, President of Orthopaedics at Smith+Nephew. “Our JOURNEY II Unicompartmental Knee System brings a much-needed solution to the partial knee space. 5-6 When paired with Smith+Nephew’s innovative enabling technologies, the JOURNEY II UK’s two-tray footprint is reduced and may offer healthcare providers increased value in a comprehensive solution to unicompartmental knee procedures. Unicompartmental procedures may result in a reduction of cost to payers, via decreased implant and procedure costs, compared to total knee arthroplasty. Tad Gerlinger, Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, IL. “The updated instrumentation presented by the JOURNEY II Unicompartmental Knee System, paired with the increased range in implant sizes and a lateral specific baseplate, makes it easy to reproducibly perform well-balanced medial and lateral unicompartmental arthroplasties,” said Dr. Through the introduction of a lateral-specific tibia baseplate and an increased size range for femoral components and medial tibia baseplates, the JOURNEY II UK System provides a unique opportunity to optimize bone coverage in both the medial and lateral compartments of the knee.
