Robotic Knee Replacement? Why?

Robotic Knee Replacement? Is it for me?


In past days, people used to be very sceptical about knee replacement surgery due to the failure rate and inaccuracy that may come in the operation. However, robotic total knee replacement came as bonn to all, as it eliminated all the errors. The previous knee replacement surgery process was limited due to its manual cutting of bone.

In conventional knee replacement surgery, the knee used to be longer which used to cause a lot of blood loss. Moreover, it used to involve manual cutting of the bone which was not very precise either. All these difficulties have been erased with robotics assisted knee replacement surgery as it involves very small invasion that hardly harms adjacent tissues or ligaments which results in less blood loss during the surgery

In robotic total knee replacement surgery, due to very less bone and tissue invasion and minimal stretching of tissues, patients go through very less pain which fade aways within a day at maximum. In robotics surgery, the precision level is higher as the system uses individual anatomy while placing the prosthetic implant. The robotic arm cut the damaged part of the bone only which keep the natural bone intact and place the implant accordingly. Moreover, small cut leads to faster recovery as well. After robotic total knee replacement surgery, patients can start walking within 3 hours and can go back to home within 24 hrs even.

Robotics orthopaedic surgery is good only done by expert doctors as handling the robotic arm needs higher expertise. NHS Ortho Robotics at Jalandhar offers robotic total knee replacement surgery and has higher success rate. The team of robotics orthopaedic surgery is handled by Dr Shubhang Aggarwal who has years of experience in both partial and total knee replacement surgery.

Pain After Total knee replacement

Pain after Total Knee Replacement! Dr. Shubhang Aggarwal, Head of Robotic surgery and director, NHS Hospital, gives us an insight on pain after Knee replacement surgery. Total Knee replacement surgery is now widely accepted as a precise, repeatable and successful surgery. A large number of cases of knee replacement surgery are carried out in India itself. With better trained doctors and good hospital infrastructure, the results of knee replacement surgery are getting better every day. However, there are a few patients who are not satisfied with their knee replacement surgery and they continue to experience pain. We need to identify the reasons for this and ensure that this does not happen. What to expect after surgery? With better tissue handling techniques and accelerated rehabilitation methods, most patients can start mobilising 3-5 hours after surgery. There is some pain of the incision and sutures. Post surgery as the patient starts exercising, the pain gradually becomes much lesse

How a robot takes care of your joints?

      Innovations in surgeries of Knee Joint & Hip Joint Replacement Wonders in the medical field are an everyday miracle. The leap in technological prowess has seen the world getting cured of the most difficult of diseases and helping the humans live a long life with comfort and ease. Joint replacement surgery in Jalandhar  with robotic technology is one such wonder introduced by NHS hospital. This new technique is a breakthrough in surgical procedures, providing the patients an easy and comfortable pre-post operation incentives. The surgeons use a robotic arm, assisted by artificial intelligence, to map images and make precise incisions for the joint to be close to a normal one. Patients, undergoing surgery, will have comfort and ease because of the advantages of NAVIO (Smith & Nephew) assisted robotic joint replacement surgery. Joint replacement surgery  in Jalandhar is done by removing the damaged surface of bone, leaving the healthy bones and ligaments  intact. The artific

Who is the perfect candidate for robotic knee replacement surgery?

Robotic knee replacement surgery is God sent for people suffering from severe knee pain or arthritis. In the past days, total knee replacement in jalandhar used to be done manually which used to involve the use of a saw to cut some parts of the bone and eye-balling by the surgeon. In the old procedure there was a lot of cutting of tissues and release of ligaments causing a lot of pain and some bleeding. However, with the use of robotic technology in a joint replacement surgery, these hassles have been overcome and the patient can get back to normal life within a few days after the surgery. When would your surgeon recommend knee replacement surgery? Surgeons would recommend me replacement surgery in the following cases Severe pain or stiffness that limits daily activities Knee pain even while at rest Deformity of the knee joints giving a cricket appearance to the legs whether inside or outside Severe knee joint degeneration on the x-ray even if there is not much pain but there is diffic
