FAQs
Is robotic surgery really better than conventional manual knee replacement surgery?
Robotic surgery for knee replacement has several advantages over conventional manual knee replacement surgery, but whether it is "better" is a subjective judgment that depends on the individual patient's needs and circumstances. Here are some of the advantages of robotic knee replacement surgery:
- Precision: Robotic knee replacement surgery allows for greater precision in implant placement, which can lead to better long-term outcomes and fewer complications.
- Personalization: The robotic system used in knee replacement surgery allows for a personalized treatment plan based on the patient's unique anatomy and specific needs.
- Reduced pain and recovery time: Because robotic knee replacement surgery is minimally invasive, it can result in less pain, swelling, and a shorter recovery time compared to traditional knee replacement surgery.
- Improved range of motion: With greater precision in implant placement, patients who undergo robotic knee replacement surgery often experience improved range of motion in their new knee joint.
That being said, there are some potential disadvantages to robotic knee replacement surgery as well, such as increased cost and longer operative times. Ultimately, the decision about whether to undergo robotic or conventional knee replacement surgery should be made in consultation with a qualified healthcare professional, taking into account the patient's specific needs and circumstances.
How is it better?
CUVIS Joint Robot System results in less trauma caused to bones and tissues. The Cuvis system uses 3Ps, namely Personalized Pre-planning, Pre-selection and Precise Cutting. Way before the actual surgery, a CT scan of patient’s knee creates a 3D model on which the surgeon can plan the entire surgery, including incisions and knee implant. Smart pre-selection allows the surgeon to select the right implant and decides its alignment. All this data is calibrated into the robot and during the surgery CUVIS robotic arm cuts the damaged bone area with unmatched precision. The unique 3P formula significantly eliminates the risk barriers and result in better outcome.
What is Robotic Knee Replacement with Cuvis Joint?
In knee replacement surgery, the arthritic portion of the knee is removed and replaced by an artificial joint that form the new surfaces of the knee joint. During Cuvis Joint Robot total knee replacement, surgeons use computed tomography (CT) scans to build a 3D model of the patient's knee. With that virtual model as guide, the surgeon then uses the robotic arm to make accurate bone cuts and insert the knee components precisely.
How Cuvis Joint works?
Personalised pre-planning:
Patient’s joints 3D images are used by the doctor for pre-planning of the surgery personalized to the patient.
Pre-selection and precise insertion of artificial joint:
The doctor uses the robot to select an artificial joint for the patient and insert it accurately.
Precise cutting for accuracy and optimum alignment:
Robot reviews the data and cuts the bone precisely with respect to the dimensions of the implant decided during pre-surgery planning stage.
How Cuvis Joint knee replacement surgery benefits me?
The advantages of the Cuvis Joint system were mainly attributed to its comprehensive pre-operative plan, intra-operative monitoring, patientspecific and appropriate intervention by surgeons.
The precision of Cuvis Joint Robot system surgery allows for:
- More accurate implant placement results in a more natural feeling after surgery.
- Reduced risk of injury to adjacent tissues results in improved safety and reduced risk of infection.
- Reduces the risk of embolism, safe in elderly patients
- Lower blood loss and smaller incisions, help in quicker recovery and less pain.
- Early Rehabilitation, decreased admission time and early discharge from Hospital.
- The potential for better long-term function
- Better implant survivorship and longevity
- Improved Quality of life
