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:
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.
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.
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.
- 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.
