Florida Orthopaedic Institute recently featured the TOUCH® thumb joint replacement in a TV segment, presenting it as a game-changing solution for patients suffering from thumb arthritis.
During the interview, Dr Devin Collins explained how this innovative procedure helps patients regain strength, mobility and quality of life, particularly when conservative treatments are no longer effective.
Unlike traditional procedures that remove bone and rely on soft tissue stabilisation, the TOUCH® CMC prosthesis replaces the damaged joint with a dual-mobility implant designed to restore natural movement and stability.
The segment highlights how patients can return more quickly to everyday activities — from gripping objects to enjoying hobbies such as sports or manual work — with reduced pain and improved function.
This milestone reflects the growing adoption of thumb joint replacement in the United States, as well as the continued expansion of advanced treatment options for patients with thumb osteoarthritis.
