Enovis Expands Orthopaedic Registry Support to Shoulder and Elbow Care
Medical technology firm Enovis has become the first industry partner to sponsor multiple AAOS registries. By extending its commitment beyond the American Joint Replacement Registry to include the Shoulder & Elbow Registry through 2027, the company aims to bolster clinical data collection for complex joint procedures.
Carolyn M. Hettrich, chair of the AAOS Shoulder & Elbow Registry Steering Committee, noted that such partnerships provide the necessary resources to transform raw procedural data into actionable clinical insights. Damien McDonald, CEO of Enovis, emphasized that the collaboration aligns with the company’s broader focus on generating evidence to drive innovation in arthroplasty. The registry, which draws expertise from groups including the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons and the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine, serves as a growing repository for refining patient care standards across the musculoskeletal field.
