About

Orthopractis is a medical technology initiative focused on developing advanced digital solutions for orthopaedic surgery, rehabilitation, and musculoskeletal care. The company integrates artificial intelligence (AI), extended reality (XR), and data-driven clinical analytics to improve surgical precision, patient outcomes, and healthcare efficiency. Orthopaedic procedures such as hip and knee replacements, trauma reconstruction, and sports injury treatments still rely heavily on two-dimensional imaging and surgeon experience. This often leads to variability in implant positioning, suboptimal biomechanical restoration, and inconsistent functional recovery. Orthopractis addresses this gap by transforming preoperative imaging data (CT, MRI, and radiographs) into interactive three-dimensional models that enable surgeons to plan, simulate, and guide procedures with greater accuracy. The Orthopractis platform combines AI-based biomechanical analysis, surgical planning tools, and XR visualization technologies that allow clinicians to interact with patient-specific anatomy in immersive environments. These systems support personalized implant selection, biomechanical optimization, and intraoperative navigation while also generating structured clinical data that can be used to improve future treatment algorithms.Beyond surgery, Orthopractis develops digital tools for gait analysis, functional monitoring, and rehabilitation optimization, enabling

Solution & Product

Vision Navi Hip is an AI- and XR-powered surgical planning and navigation platform designed to improve the precision and personalization of total hip arthroplasty (THA). The system converts standard patient imaging data (CT, MRI, or radiographs) into detailed three-dimensional anatomical models, enabling surgeons to analyze biomechanics, simulate implant positioning, and optimize surgical strategy before entering the operating room. Using advanced biomechanical algorithms, Vision Navi Hip estimates joint reaction forces, evaluates hip offset, leg length, and polar stress distribution, and predicts the functional consequences of different implant configurations. This allows surgeons to select implant size, orientation, and positioning based on patient-specific anatomy and biomechanics rather than generalized templates. Through extended reality (XR) visualization on devices such as Apple Vision Pro, surgeons can interact with patient-specific anatomy in an immersive 3D environment, improving spatial understanding and surgical planning. The platform is designed to integrate with intraoperative navigation workflows and to capture structured surgical data that can further train AI models. By combining biomechanical analysis, immersive visualization, and AI-driven decision support, Vision Navi Hip aims to reduce surgical variability, improve implant positioning, and support better long-term outcomes for patients undergoing hip replacement surgery.

Innovation & Scalability

Vision Navi Hip introduces a new approach to orthopaedic surgical planning by combining artificial intelligence, biomechanical modeling, and extended reality (XR) visualization into a unified platform for total hip arthroplasty (THA). Unlike conventional templating tools that rely mainly on two-dimensional radiographs and static measurements, Vision Navi Hip uses three-dimensional patient imaging data to generate personalized biomechanical models of the hip joint. This allows surgeons to simulate implant positioning, analyze joint reaction forces, evaluate offset restoration, and estimate stress distribution before surgery. The innovation lies in integrating advanced biomechanical analytics with immersive visualization technologies, enabling surgeons to interact with patient-specific anatomy in 3D environments and explore multiple surgical scenarios in real time. The platform transforms routine imaging data into actionable surgical intelligence that supports more precise and personalized treatment decisions. Vision Navi Hip is designed as a scalable digital platform. The software architecture allows deployment across hospitals and surgical centers without requiring complex hardware infrastructure. As more clinical data are incorporated, the AI models can continuously improve implant selection recommendations, surgical planning accuracy, and outcome prediction. This scalable data-driven ecosystem can expand beyond hip arthroplasty

Traction & achievements

Vision Navi Hip has already entered early clinical evaluation through a Phase 0 observational study exploring the use of AI-based biomechanical analysis and XR visualization for preoperative planning in total hip arthroplasty (THA). The platform has been applied to real patient imaging data to generate three-dimensional anatomical models, evaluate hip biomechanics, and simulate implant positioning, demonstrating the feasibility of integrating advanced planning tools into clinical workflows. The technology has also been publicly presented to the international extended reality community at a major Europe XR congress in Brussels, where it showcased the use of immersive visualization for surgical planning and biomechanical analysis. The presentation highlighted the ability of surgeons to interact with patient-specific anatomy in three dimensions and evaluate surgical scenarios using XR devices. These milestones demonstrate both clinical relevance and technological maturity, validating the concept of combining AI-driven biomechanical modeling with XR surgical planning. The current work forms the foundation for expanded clinical studies and future regulatory development toward scalable deployment in orthopaedic surgery.

Team & Why Us

Orthopractis is led by an orthopaedic surgeon with direct clinical experience in joint replacement, trauma, and musculoskeletal biomechanics, enabling the development of solutions grounded in real surgical needs. The initiative combines medical expertise with advanced capabilities in artificial intelligence, extended reality (XR), and digital health technologies to create practical tools for precision orthopaedics. The growth strategy focuses on three main pillars. First, clinical validation through structured studies and collaborations with hospitals to demonstrate improved surgical planning and outcomes using the Vision Navi Hip platform. Second, technological expansion by continuously enhancing AI-based biomechanical analysis, XR visualization, and surgical data integration. Third, scalable deployment through partnerships with healthcare institutions, medical device companies, and research organizations. By combining clinical insight, emerging technologies, and data-driven development, Orthopractis aims to build a scalable platform that can expand beyond hip arthroplasty to broader orthopaedic applications including shoulder ,knee, trauma surgery, rehabilitation monitoring, and musculoskeletal analytics.

Funding Needs

Orthopractis is seeking funding to advance the regulatory, clinical, and technical development of Vision Navi Hip toward full market deployment. A key objective is achieving regulatory compliance under the European Medical Device Regulation (MDR) for Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), including implementation of a certified quality management system, risk management framework, clinical evaluation, and post-market surveillance processes. Funding will support expanded clinical studies, software validation, cybersecurity and data protection compliance, and preparation of the technical documentation required for CE marking. In parallel, resources will be allocated to prepare for regulatory alignment with international standards and future FDA pathways. The regulatory environment for AI-based medical software presents significant barriers due to the complexity of MDR requirements and the need for robust clinical evidence. Strategic investment will allow Orthopractis to overcome these challenges, accelerate certification, and scale the Vision Navi Hip platform for safe and compliant adoption across healthcare systems.
