The Benefits of Robotic Knee Replacement
- Precision and Customization
Robotic knee replacement surgery offers a level of precision that traditional methods cannot match. With surgeon-guided robotics, the procedure is tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy. This customization ensures that the artificial joint aligns perfectly with the natural knee structure, leading to improved functionality and a more natural feel post-surgery.
- Reduced Risk of Complications
Performing the procedure in an outpatient setting significantly lowers the risk of hospital-acquired infections. Additionally, patients generally experience less pain, swelling, and scarring. This reduction in complications translates to a safer, more comfortable recovery process.
- Faster Recovery
Outpatient robotic knee replacement facilitates a quicker return to daily activities. The precise nature of the surgery, coupled with shorter hospital stays, means less downtime and quicker rehabilitation at home. Patients can expect to resume their normal routines much sooner than with traditional knee replacement surgery.
How Does Robotic Knee Replacement Work?
The procedure is led by Dr. Richard Zimlich, an experienced orthopedic surgeon specializing in hip and knee treatments. At Lowcountry Orthopaedics, the use of advanced robotic systems allows for unparalleled accuracy:
- Robotic Arm and Imaging Technology: Advanced imaging technology creates a 3D virtual model of the knee. This model guides the accurate placement of implants.
- Precision Cuts and Adjustments: The robotic arm can make precise cuts, minimizing trauma to tissue and ensuring optimal joint alignment. Feedback during the procedure allows for immediate adjustments, enhancing the outcome of the surgery.
