Revolutionary AR Technology Enhances Precision, Reduces Cost for Shoulder Replacements

Innovation and advances in technology, such as ARVIS®, will significantly impact how quickly patients return to the activities they love.”
— Dr. Andrew Green, UOI Chief of Shoulder & Elbow Surgery
EAST PROVIDENCE, RI, UNITED STATES, June 12, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Dr. Andrew Green, a renowned shoulder specialist with University Orthopedics, recently became the first surgeon in New England to utilize ARVIS®, a groundbreaking augmented reality (AR) guidance system for shoulder joint replacement surgery.

Developed by Enovis™, ARVIS® (Augmented Reality Visualization and Information System) is the only AR platform currently available in the United States that enables surgical navigation for shoulder joint replacements, all within a single, compact system, thus facilitating precise implant placement.

“I’ve incorporated ARVIS® into my practice because it’s designed specifically to fit the needs of my shoulder patients,” said Dr. Green, Chief of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery at Brown University Health and University Orthopedics. “After more than 30 years performing shoulder replacements, I know how important the small details are to a good result. My patients deserve the best tools and technology available. The ARVIS® system helps me to precisely position the implants, which is especially important in cases with more severe bone deformity. Published research studies show that computer-assisted planning and navigation improve the surgical accuracy over traditional unguided surgical techniques. With ARVIS®, I have complete control of the surgery.”

Shoulder pain caused by osteoarthritis and severe rotator cuff disorders is the most common reason for anatomic and reverse total shoulder replacements. While less common than hip and knee replacements, utilization of shoulder arthroplasty is increasing at a faster rate and is expected to rise as the population ages.

“Shoulder replacement requires time for recovery,” said Dr. Green, who is also a Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University. “Innovation and advances in technology, such as ARVIS®, will significantly impact how quickly patients return to the activities they love. ARVIS® allows for an individualized surgical experience tailored to each patient's unique anatomy.”

ARVIS® integrates tracking cameras, a 3D AR display, and a hands-free interface within a surgical helmet-compatible eyepiece. Its proprietary hardware enhances surgical precision while minimizing the physical footprint and financial burden associated with traditional robotic systems.
University Orthopedics’ adoption of ARVIS® marks a new era of accessible, high-tech orthopedic care for patients in New England and sets a precedent for other institutions nationwide.

VAREP Policy Conference Confronts VA Loan Crisis & Financial Readiness Gaps for Military & Transitioning Servicemembers

With 150,000+ VA loan defaults, rising financial instability, and weak transition support, VAREP calls for urgent federal reform. WASHINGTON D.C., DC, UNITED STATES, June 14, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Veterans Association of Real Estate Professionals (VAREP) convenes its 13th Annual Policy Conference, June 15–17, 2025, in Washington, D.C., uniting industry leaders and policymakers to address the financial and housing challenges facing military and veteran families. Focus areas include financial literacy, VA loan access, foreclosure prevention, and post-service transition. “Lack of financial education is compromising readiness and costing nearly 30% of servicemembers their security clearances,” said Son Nguyen, Founder & President of VAREP. “TAP provides minimal financial and housing preparation, leaving many transitioning servicemembers unprepared for reintegration.” Key Data Points • 84% of servicemembers score low on financial literacy assessments • 50% of transitioning servicemembers and spouses report financial strain • 80% of veterans report recent financial stress • 150,000+ VA loans are in default • Only 15% of eligible borrowers use the VA home loan benefit • The VA loan remains the only core benefit without VSO-charter representation VAREP’s Policy Agenda VALID Act (H.R. 3694; S. 1932) Mandates a clear loan comparison to help VA-loan eligible borrowers make informed choices between VA, FHA, and conventional products. VAREP Congressional Charter Act (H.R. 3981) This bill grants VAREP a Congressional Charter as the only HUD-approved nonprofit solely focused on veteran housing and financial services. VAREP delivers end-to-end support—from pre-purchase counseling and VA loan navigation to foreclosure prevention, homelessness assistance, and credit restoration. VAREP fills a critical gap in case management, financial education, and transitional support. “No one should serve their country only to struggle silently with housing instability and financial stress,” said Nguyen. “This charter isn’t about prestige—it’s about ensuring our veterans have a champion for the benefits they’ve earned.” Military Financial Counseling Integrate financial education with personalized counseling that begins at enlistment, is reinforced during transition through TAP, and continues post-service through VA. Key components include mandatory Financial Fitness Checkups, a Transitional Financial & Housing Review at separation, and a seamless handoff to the VA for ongoing housing and credit support. Military financial literacy is very germane and aligns with NDAA FY2025 priorities. Veterans Housing Counseling Program Calls for a VA-endorsed program delivered through a HUD-approved VSO to offer homeownership education, loss mitigation, re-default prevention, and protections for veterans post–NAR settlement. The program would also embed housing and credit counseling into the separation process to support long-term stability. Nguyen said, “as Congress, DoD, and the VA considers reforms to protect and empower those who served, VAREP stands ready to lead.”

Trwają dyskusje nad kształtem unijnego budżetu na lata 2028–2034. Mogą być rozbieżności w kwestii Funduszu Spójności czy dopłat dla rolników

Trwają prace nad wieloletnimi unijnymi ramami finansowymi (WRF), które określą priorytety wydatków UE na lata 2028–2034. W maju Parlament Europejski przegłosował rezolucję w sprawie swojego stanowiska w tej sprawie. Postulaty europarlamentarzystów mają zostać uwzględnione we wniosku Komisji Europejskiej w sprawie WRF, który zostanie opublikowany w lipcu 2025 roku. Wciąż jednak nie ma zgody miedzy państwami członkowskimi, m.in. w zakresie Funduszu Spójności czy budżetu na rolnictwo.

35 proc. gospodarstw domowych nie stać na zakup mieszkania nawet na kredyt. Pomóc może wsparcie budownictwa społecznego i uwolnienie gruntów pod zabudowę

W Polsce co roku oddaje się do użytku ok. 200 tys. mieszkań, co oznacza, że w ciągu dekady teoretycznie potrzeby mieszkaniowe społeczeństwa mogłyby zostać zaspokojone. Jednak większość lokali budują deweloperzy na sprzedaż, a 35 proc. gospodarstw domowych nie stać na zakup nawet za pomocą kredytu. Jednocześnie ta grupa zarabia za dużo, by korzystać z mieszkania socjalnego i komunalnego. Zdaniem prof. Bartłomieja Marony z UEK zmniejszeniu skali problemu zaradzić może wyłącznie większa skala budownictwa społecznego zamiast wspierania kolejnymi programami zaciągania kredytów.

Problemy społeczne

Hejt w sieci dotyka coraz więcej dzieci w wieku szkolnym. Rzadko mówią o tym dorosłym

Coraz większa grupa dzieci zaczyna korzystać z internetu już w wieku siedmiu–ośmiu​ lat – wynika z raportu NASK „Nastolatki 3.0”. Wtedy też stykają się po raz pierwszy z hejtem, którego jest coraz więcej w mediach społecznościowych. Według raportu NASK ponad 2/3 młodych internautów uważa, że mowa nienawiści jest największym problemem w sieci. Co więcej, dzieci rzadko mówią o takich incydentach dorosłym, dlatego tym istotniejsze są narzędzia technologiczne służące ochronie najmłodszych.
