WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF ROBOTIC KNEE SURGERY?
The Robotic arm helps execute the bone cuts in an accurate manner and gives a smooth and perfect surface for the application of the implants.
Due to perfect bone cuts and having anatomical alignment of your limb, the robotic technology allows perfect implantation of the new joint implants by your surgeon.
At all times during the surgery, the high-speed precision cameras in the robotic system track the alignments and movements of the limb allowing your surgeon to constantly check and verify every step he performs. This helps in better outcomes for the patient and accurate surgeries.
The robotic-assisted surgeries have been shown to be slightly faster than conventional surgeries allowing lesser surgical time and lesser time for the patient under anesthetic medications
Due to smaller incisions and the lesser invasive nature of the robotic surgery, there is lesser overall blood loss and thus lesser requirement of supplemental blood which has its own advantages.
Thanks to the smaller incisions and quicker surgical times there are lesser reported infections and complications.
Pain in patients of knee replacement surgery arises in most parts from the soft tissue handling and dissection during surgery. Thanks to robotic technology there is a substantial reduction in soft tissue handling which directly translates to lesser pain.
Owing to the smaller incisions, lesser invasiveness, and lesser pain, the rehabilitation and mobilization of the patient is started immediately post-surgery which leads to shorter rehabilitation phases and the patient can return to normal life activities sooner.
Smaller incisions, accurate alignments, and lesser pain all eventually lead to a happier patient and a shorter hospital stay.
The implants are placed in near anatomical/natural positions which leads to precise alignments and decreased wearing out of the prosthetic implants thereby increasing the life of the implants.
At techKNEEque, we are along with you at every step of the way right from your consultation till the day you leave the hospital with a smile and at every subsequent follow-up. Every patient is carefully evaluated by Dr. Ashit Shah himself and all options for treatment are evaluated. If it is mutually decided to go ahead with a knee replacement surgery, and you are a candidate for robotic surgery those options are also discussed with the patient and their family.
WHAT OUR PATIENTS ARE SAYING?
“… I had one knee operated 10 years ago with a standard procedure, but this time I underwent ROBOTIC surgery for my other knee and all i can say is thank you to this new technology…”
“…Undergoing the latest ROBOTIC knee replacement surgery with Dr Shah has been a great experience and I have returned to going to my shop daily in no time…”
“…I was walking without any support on the same day after my ROBOTIC knee replacement and felt so confident and independent…”
