A computing system obtains an information model specifying a first surgical plan for an orthopedic surgery to be performed on a patient. Additionally, the computing system modifies the first surgical plan during an intraoperative phase of the orthopedic surgery to generate a second surgical plan. During the intraoperative phase of the orthopedic surgery, a visualization device may present a visualization for display that is based on the second surgical plan.

An example system for demonstrating at least one aspect of an orthopedic surgical procedure includes a first device configured to display a presentation to a first user while the first user is wearing the device, wherein the presentation includes virtual element(s) that are controllable by the first user while the first user is wearing the first device, and wherein the virtual element(s) comprise a 3-dimensional (3D) virtual representation of one or more anatomical features associated with the orthopedic surgical procedure; and a second device configured to display the presentation to a second user, wherein the virtual element(s) further include virtual pre-operative plan element(s) shown relative to the 3D virtual representation, virtual surgical guidance feature(s) shown relative to the 3D virtual representation, or surgical result(s) virtually illustrated on the 3D virtual representation so as to demonstrate aspect(s) of the orthopedic surgical procedure.

An example medical device system includes a plurality of surgical items; and a visualization device configured to present a mixed reality (MR) presentation to a user; and one or more processors configured to select a surgical item of the plurality of surgical items based on a surgical procedure and present, in the MR presentation, virtual information that identifies the selected surgical item among the plurality of surgical items, wherein the virtual information is presented on or adjacent a position of the selected surgical item visible via the visualization device.

An example method includes registering, via a visualization device, a virtual model of a portion of an anatomy of an ankle of a patient to a corresponding portion of the anatomy of the ankle viewable via the visualization device, the virtual model obtained from a virtual surgical plan for an ankle arthroplasty procedure to attach a prosthetic to the anatomy. The example method also comprises displaying, via the visualization device and overlaid on the portion of the anatomy, a virtual guide that guides at least one of preparation of the anatomy for attachment of the prosthetic or attachment of the prosthetic to the anatomy.

An example method includes displaying, via a visualization device and overlaid on a portion of an anatomy of a patient viewable via the visualization device, a virtual model of the portion of the anatomy obtained from a virtual surgical plan for an orthopedic joint repair surgical procedure to attach a prosthetic to the anatomy; and displaying, via the visualization device and overlaid on the portion of the anatomy, a virtual guide that guides at least one of preparation of the anatomy for attachment of the prosthetic or attachment of the prosthetic to the anatomy.

An example method includes displaying, via a visualization device and overlaid on a portion of an anatomy of a patient viewable via the visualization device, a virtual model of the portion of the anatomy obtained from a virtual surgical plan for an orthopedic joint repair surgical procedure to attach a prosthetic to the anatomy; and displaying, via the visualization device and overlaid on the portion of the anatomy, a virtual guide that guides at least one of preparation of the anatomy for attachment of the prosthetic or attachment of the prosthetic to the anatomy.

An extended reality (XR) visualization device worn by an orthopedic surgeon outputs a XR visualization for display. The XR visualization includes a set of one or more virtual checklist items. Each of the one or more virtual checklist items corresponds to an item in a checklist of steps of an orthopedic surgery. Additionally, the XR visualization device detects a command of the orthopedic surgeon to select a virtual checklist item in the set of virtual checklist items. In response to detecting the command, the XR visualization device updates the XR visualization to include additional information regarding a step of the orthopedic surgery corresponding to the selected virtual checklist item.

An example device includes a surgical item for use in a surgical procedure; and a light on or within the surgical item. In this example, the light is controllable by an external device so as to identify the surgical item for use in the surgical procedure.
