EMC Alam Sutera Hospital Presents the New Innovation:

We know that the knee has a very important role to support almost the entire weight of the human body in daily activities. The knee is also the largest joint in the human body. Total Knee Replacement is a surgical procedure where the damaged part of the knee joint is replaced with an artificial component. This surgery aims to relieve pain and restore function to a severely diseased knee joint. The main indications for Total Knee Replacement surgery are osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, severe knee injury, knee deformity.

The Orthopedic Specialists at EMC Alam Sutera Hospital certainly welcome the presence of this Robotic Surgical Assistant for Total Knee Replacement. The use of robotic technology developed by Zimmer Biomet( USA) to help orthopedic surgeons create a procedure plan using a 3D model of the patient’ s knee, resulting in a more precise view and a more personalized approach. This robotic system uses real-time information to assist the orthopedic surgeon in accurately placing the knee implant based on the unique anatomy of the patient’ s knee.

Robot-assisted Total Knee Replacement surgery has a number of advantages over conventional methods: 1. High Precision: Robotic navigation systems provide surgeons with realtime imaging and 3D modeling, allowing for millimeter-level accuracy in implant placement. This precision ensures optimal alignment, which is crucial for the implant’ s functionality and longevity.

2. Personalized Surgical Plan: Creating a highly detailed preoperative plan that is customized to the patient’ s anatomy. This ensures that the implant is adjusted to perfection, thereby improving joint stability and range of motion.

3. Lower Risk of Complications: Robotic systems reduce the chances of errors such as misalignment, over-cutting, or damage to surrounding ligaments and soft tissues.

4. Enhanced Joint Functionality: By achieving better alignment and balance of the knee joint, patients experience improved mobility, less pain.

5. Faster Recovery Time: Patients who undergo robot-assisted surgery usually recover faster, allowing them to return to their daily activities and physical therapy sooner.

6. Real-Time Surgical Assistance: During surgery, the robotic system provides continuous feedback and guidance, allowing the surgeon to make immediate adjustments if needed.

7. Better Long-Term Outcomes: Studies have shown that robotic-assisted knee replacements often result in better longterm outcomes, including improved patient satisfaction, fewer complications, and greater joint longevity.

8. Future-Proof Technology: As robotic navigation technology evolves, patients who undergo surgery with this method are likely to benefit from innovations in implant design and surgical techniques, ensuring their procedure remains aligned with the latest advancements. In conclusion, robotic navigation in total knee replacement surgery represents a revolutionary step forward in modern medicine. By combining cutting-edge technology with expert surgical skills, this approach ensures superior outcomes, faster recovery, and an improved overall experience for patients. It is a powerful example of how technology can transform healthcare and deliver exceptional results.
