CUVIS Joint Robot: A breakthrough technology for knee replacement surgery

Our whole balance and mobility rely on our knee joints, which are vital aspects of our body. When it comes to everyday routine actions like lifting and kneeling, or even high-impact exercises like jogging and aerobics, people tend to place the most strain on their knees.

Knee pain is a typical issue that affects individuals of all ages since a joint that is subjected to so much stress is prone to becoming sensitive.  There is always a cause of Knee pain, it does not happen by chance. It might be the consequence of an accident, such as a burst ligament or torn cartilage, or it could be the result of an underlying medical condition, such as arthritis, gout, or other musculoskeletal infections. 

These disorders have a significant impact on a person's life. Initially, a person may experience stiffness and pain when they wake up or move after sitting for a while, but the pain becomes chronic over time and leads to limited movement. Many forms of mild knee discomfort may be treated with self-care treatments such as physiotherapy and knee braces, but in severe situations, the knee may require surgical surgery.

Every year, about a million people get knee replacement surgery. Knee replacement surgery can help patients regain their mobility, but it is fraught with health hazards that have a negative impact on quality of life. Some of the dangers are as follows:

Blood clots

Infections

Heart attack

Nerve damage

Joint failure.

Knee replacement surgery can often result in physical consequences ranging from pain and swelling to implant rejection, infection, and bone fractures if not performed correctly.

The need of knee replacement surgery is on the rise as the prevalence of Arthritis, Rheumatoid, and Osteoarthritis rises. This in turn increases the need of a new technology is which may assist doctors while conducting the procedure without the risk of manual or underestimated mistakes. CUVIS Robot, North India's first fully active robot for knee replacement surgery, is now available at Sarvodaya Hospital in Faridabad to meet the needs of both patients and doctors.

WHAT IS CUVIS JOINT ROBOT SYSTEM?

Cuvis Joint Robot System is the most effective surgical cutting-edge robotic technology, assisting surgeons with the three P's: personalised preplanning, precise cutting, that will provide predictable and consistent outcomes.

It consists of three major parts: 

Main Console

Robotic Arm, and

Planning Device.

The Main Console with Optical Tracking System (OTS) facilitates real-time monitoring and guides the surgeon through the surgery. A robotic arm with a milling tool on its tip does the majority of the bone cutting.

HOW IS THE SURGERY PERFORMED WITH CUVIS’ HELP?

The CUVIS Joint Robot generates a 3D model of the patient's knee, which the surgeon uses as a guide to make proper bone incisions and accurately position the knee components.

Personalized pre-planning: The doctor arranges the procedure precisely for each patient using 3D images of the patient's joints.

Artificial joint pre-selection and precise insertion: The robot is used by the doctor to choose and precisely implant an artificial joint for the patient.

Precise cutting for precision and alignment: The robot analyses the data and precisely slices the bone in proportion to the dimensions of the pre-selected implant.

Sarvodaya Healthcare works to provide patients with outstanding treatment that is underpinned by cutting-edge technology. The CUVIS Joint Robot System is a step toward our goal. With this next level of technology, we hope to empower our surgeons while also benefiting our patients. As a result, the face of joint replacement procedures is changing.
