4 Reasons Why Robotic Joint Replacement Surgery is Better

The involvement of machines in medical procedures has been going on for decades. We depend on them for various tests, X-rays, CT scans, and even analysis, but still, the involvement of robots is new and still fascinates us. One amongst all else is an Active Robot for Knee Replacement, which is picking up the attention world over due to its success rate. 

With the conventional surgical knee surgeries patients were prone to many risks that are capable of deteriorating the quality of life of a patient. While these risks become the cause of concern for the patients, they also pose difficult challenges for the surgeons as well. In a scenario like this, emerged the CUVIS Joint Replacement Robot


The CUVIS Fully Active Robotic Joint Replacement system is a first-of-its-kind robot, which conducts the cutting and milling too under the supervision of an experienced surgeon. This technology immeasurably enhances the replacement procedure by providing maximum accuracy and the option of mid-course correction due to constant feedback, to provide the best possible results in Joint Replacements.



Any patient who is suitable for a conventional knee replacement procedure is automatically suitable for robotic replacement surgery. 


Why it is better:


  1. Pre-Surgical Planning: Every patient who is recommended for knee replacement surgery is different from each other. They have different body structures, medical conditions, and most importantly their damage intensity also differs. Through CUVIS Joint Replacement Robot, we can actually take a look at patients’ anatomy which allows us to have details of their tissue structures and get a more accurate analysis of their injury. With better and more detail we are able to plan a customized surgery for each patient. 

  1. Control certain aspects: By Robotic surgery, we don’t mean that the entire procedure will be carried out by a machine. Knees consist of four ligaments, anterior cruciate ligament (front ligament) Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) (ligament at the back) are more likely to be injured during conventional replacement surgery. With Robotic surgery, the surgeon is able to preserve them as it controls certain delicate areas with the utmost precision. 

  1. Fewer Joint Replacement: When surgeries are performed with the precision of a robot and the expertise of a surgeon, the chances of adversities like revised surgery and joint failure reduce tremendously. While being minimally invasive in nature, it further eliminates the risk of infections, blood loss, and blood clots. 

  2. Potential for Better Recovery: Post knowing about the risks, the prevalent question is “How much time will it take to recover?” The recovery period majorly depends upon the condition of the patients but while the chances of risks reduce it significantly shortens the period of recovery. Patients have been able to walk within 4-5 hours of surgery and by the time they are sent back home, they have a tremendous amount of improvement.

When Doctors Prescribe Bone Marrow Transplant?

Bone marrow transplant is the new advancement of nuclear medicine technology . Bone marrow is a soft sponge-type blood cell that produces other blood cells and stores. A transplant is done when the bone marrow gets damaged due to diseases or any physical condition.  Best bone marrow transplant hospital prescribes this to treat several diseases which include:  Leukemia: prominently known as blood cancer where the blood cell starts dying and no regeneration occurs. Lymphoma: A type of cancer that occurs in the immune system called the lymph nodes.  Acute lymphocytic leukemia: A type of cancer that causes bone marrow to makes defective blood cells. It’s the most common cancer in children, and rare in adults. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia: A kind of blood cancer that affects white blood cells occurs most in older adults. Multiple myeloma: A type of blood cancer that occurs in the white blood cells and mostly treated by nuclear medicine technology . Aplas...

An Insight into Brain Tumour Surgery

Brain tumours are often treated with surgery. Brain tumour surgery is done only if the tumour is located in an accessible place for operation. Through the surgery, the surgeon removes part of the brain tumour as much as possible. There are many cases where tumours are small, they are easy to remove completely from surrounding brain tissues. Complete surgical removal is possible only in such cases. But in other cases, if tumours are located near sensitive areas in the brain, then removing it through surgery is risky. In such a situation the doctor may remove the possible part and treat the rest with nuclear medicine . Even removing a small part of the tumour helps to reduce the symptoms of the brain tumour. Surgery does carry some risk such as infection and internal bleeding. Also, a surgery performed to remove a brain tumour located near eye nerves may carry a risk of vision loss. Minimally Invasive Scarless Brain Tumour Surgery  This is also called awake brain surgery. The ...

Best Neurologists for Complete Care of Neurological Disorders

People consult either a Neurologist or neurosurgeon for a neurological disorder but not many know the difference between the two. Although both treat conditions that affect the nervous system. But a neurologist is the one who evaluates the condition and devises a treatment plan and if he thinks, can refer the patient to a neurosurgeon for a surgery. Also, neurological disorders are diverse and even differ between infants, young children and adults. There is also a separate class of specialists called Paediatric neurologist s who manage disorders of the Paediatric population. Paediatric disorders include cerebral palsy, complex metabolic diseases, epilepsy, learning disabilities, and nerve and muscle diseases. Neurologist s from the best neurology hospitals , first evaluate & determine if a problem exists in the nervous system. After the examination, the neurologist decides on the treatment plan basis the patient’s family & health history. Apart from this, a ne...
