CORI
Are you ready for the ultimate knee replacement experience?
The CORI◊ Surgical System is an advancement in the way orthopedic surgeons perform partial and total knee replacement.
It’s a handheld device that works in conjunction with your surgeon’s skilled hands to achieve accurate positioning of components during planning and surgery.
Discover the benefits robotics-assisted surgery with Smith+Nephew implants can deliver—a naturally shaped knee,2 a quicker, smoother recovery*3,4 and an implant made from materials designed to last.
A unique plan
With 3D digital modeling, you get a surgical plan that’s customized to your unique anatomy. That means your surgeon can perform your procedure efficiently and more accurately than traditional knee replacement surgery.
A natural fit
With a robotics-assisted procedure using Smith+Nephew implants, your surgeon can help you keep more of your natural bone and ligaments, including the ACL. That means your body can maintain more of its natural rhythm and step.
Why does my knee hurt?
Sometimes called “wear and tear” arthritis, osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis. When the smooth cushion between bones (cartilage) breaks down, joints can get painful, swollen and hard to move.
What can I do about my knee pain?
There’s no cure for osteoarthritis, but there are lots of treatment options, including exercises, weight loss, medication or surgery. If your doctor has recommended knee replacement surgery, there are important choices for you to consider.
Partial
Most often an option for early- to mid-stage osteoarthritis, your surgeon replaces the damaged part of your knee.
Total
Most often an option for advanced osteoarthritis, your surgeon replaces the entire knee joint.
what our patients are saying
“I have been a Hemo dialysis patient for almost Five years. Prior to dialysis and during dialysis I have had several trips to the ER, due to other health issues & was admitted to CMC more than a few times. Each and every time I’ve been there, whether in patient or out, I have been treated with respect, professionalism, and efficiency. I give this hospital 2 thumbs up!! Thank you CMC for taking care of me all these years!!”
“I have to say the last couple visits that I’ve had here have been wonderful. About a month ago I had an EGD and the staff were amazing! Explained everything in detail and made me feel at ease. I was very nervous and the nurse I had was very comforting. Tonight we had to take my son to the emergency room and they were awesome with him! We got right in. “
“I have had many occasions visiting CMC for myself and family. We have never had a bad experience there at all. Last October I had surgery and the nurses were amazing especially my night nurse. Thank you to all CMC staff for doing what you do every day with a smile.”
