Naviswiss is a new innovative navigation system that provides orthopedic surgeons with a more precise way to do artificial joints. It is able to provide surgeons with cup alignment, leg length and leg offset. Now surgeons can provide patients that are having artificial joint surgery with higher quality results that will help patients be more satisfied with their artificial joints.

Naviswiss helps the orthopedic surgeon to implant artificial joints as planned. This improves their longevity and documents the quality of the surgical process. Surgical navigation has long been associated with large equipment cluttering the operating room. Naviswiss has created a handheld navigation unit which is used like a surgical instrument with similarly instantaneous results.

In my opinion, healthcare is rapidly moving forward and progressing rapidly.  It will be difficult, as a n orthopedic surgeon, to compete with other surgeons who are using this new technology if the "old" ways are still being practiced.  People naturally want to move toward the new technology, as I have seen in my profession as a surgery nurse.  There will be pros and cons to every way a surgery is done and the technology used to perform surgery, but new technology is always being created and will eventually be implemented.
I am excited about this new navigation system and I am hopeful that it will be a success.
