FRIDAY, May 10, 2024 (HealthDay News) -- Robot-assisted total knee replacements tend to have better outcomes on average, a new study reports. Unfortunately, there’s a downside – having a...

Mar 6, 2023 · Robot scores better in length of stay and home discharge; manual scores better in flexion and operative time. Robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) currently has some advantages over manual surgery, although either technique is effective.

Oct 2, 2024 · Mako robotic-arm assisted orthopedic surgery is used for partial and total knee replacements and total hip replacements at Mayo Clinic's campuses in Arizona, Florida and Rochester, MN. During joint replacement procedures, a surgeon cuts away damaged bone and cartilage and replaces it with artificial components made of metal alloys, high-grade ...

What is Robotic Knee Replacement? A robotic knee replacement is similar to a traditional knee replacement. Your surgeon removes damaged tissue in your knee and replaces it with an artificial joint. The difference is that it's done with assistance from a robotic arm, which allows for greater precision. In more complex cases, a robotic-assisted ...

Robotic total knee replacement (TKR) surgery has evolved over the years with the aim of improving the overall 80% satisfaction rate associated with TKR surgery. Proponents claim higher precision in executing the pre-operative plan which results in improved alignment and possibly better clinical outcomes.

Oct 17, 2024 · During knee replacement surgery, the surgeon replaces parts of a worn out or degenerated knee joint with an artificial joint – also called an implant or a prosthesis. Outcomes for this operation are excellent for the vast majority of patients who choose it to address their painful and debilitating arthritic joint.

Jan 4, 2023 · Robotic-assisted surgery for total knee replacement adds a new level of precision and personalization to the placement of the implants. Almost 1 million total knee replacement surgeries were performed in the U.S. in 2021, and the annual number is projected to rise to 3.5 million by 2030, according to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons ...

Apr 17, 2025 · Surgeons can seamlessly integrate the Freedom Total and Titan Knee systems with the TMINI Miniature Robotic System to provide patients with a comprehensive total knee replacement solution. “I am thrilled to be the first surgeon globally to use the Freedom Knee implants with the new TMINI System developed by THINK Surgical,” said Dr. Cashen.

Robotic-assisted surgery in total knee replacement helps achieve that balance better than traditional surgical techniques. The advent of robotic-assisted total knee replacement is such an important advancement in orthopedics because it enables greater surgical precision and a better-balanced knee joint.

Instead, robotic knee replacement is a procedure that uses a robotic technology to improve accuracy and precision during knee replacement. At TRIA, we currently use the ROSA® Knee System and VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution, which are robotic surgical assistants that can be used for knee replacements.
