## Indications for use
The NextAR Shoulder™ Platform supports the surgeon during glenoid implantation in anatomic shoulder replacement procedures providing information on bone preparation, instrument guidance, and implant positioning. The NextAR Shoulder™ Platform works in conjunction with NextAR™ stereotaxic instruments and general surgical instruments to implant the Medacta Shoulder System Anatomic (TSA – Total Shoulder Arthroplasty). As an optional display, the smart glasses can be used auxiliary to the NextAR Shoulder™ Platform to view the same 2D stereotaxic information as presented by the NextAR Shoulder™ Platform. The NextAR Shoulder™ stereotaxic instruments are to support the surgeon during specific orthopedic surgical procedures by providing information on bone preparation, instrument guidance, and implant positioning. Once registered, the NextAR™ stereotaxic instruments provide reference to a patient’s rigid anatomical structures on the surface of the glenoid that are identified relative to preoperative C.T. based planning. The smart glasses should not be relied upon solely and should always be used in conjunction with the primary computer display.
