Advancements in robotic technology have influenced the way surgeons are performing knee and hip joint arthroplasty. With these advances come the need to train surgeons on new procedural workflows and techniques. VR technology is an immersive new medium for meeting this need, offering collaborative, digital, data-based education. The combination of VR and robotic technology is more than just a fun and effective way to learn; it also helps shape an evolving educational paradigm for the future.

Learning Objectives

• Explore how VR technology is providing an immersive virtual environment for learning the Mako Total Knee arthroplasty surgical workflows
• Understand the role of Mako SmartRobotics™ in making informed surgical decision-making
• Discuss the future of VR as an alternate route of surgical education
• Examine the challenges that remote training can potentially solve
• Appreciate the trajectory of the next generation of surgical training
