Navigating the World of Knee Replacement Options

Total Knee Replacement (TKR)

In this procedure, the entire knee joint is replaced with artificial components, including the femoral, tibial, and patellar components.

Partial Knee Replacement (PKR)

Also known as unicompartmental knee replacement, only the damaged compartment of the knee, either medial (inside) or lateral (outside), is replaced.

Complex or Revision Knee Replacement

This type of knee replacement procedure is performed in cases where a previous knee replacement has failed or additional reconstructive procedures are required.

Comparing Traditional Surgery with Robotic Surgery for Knee Replacements

Traditional Surgery

Involves manual techniques performed by the surgeon.
The surgery may take longer compared to robotic surgery.
Recovery time can vary, and rehabilitation may be required.
There is a potential for human error and variations in surgical outcomes.
The surgeon relies on their skill and experience to make precise cuts and placements.

Robotic Surgery

Utilizes advanced robotic technology in combination with the surgeon's expertise.
The surgeon uses a robotic system to guide and assist in the surgical procedure.
Robotic surgery takes less time compared to traditional surgery
Robotic systems provide enhanced precision and accuracy during bone cuts and implant placement.
The risk of human error is reduced, leading to potentially better and long term surgical outcomes.
The minimally invasive nature of robotic surgery can result in smaller incisions, less pain, and quicker recovery.
Robotic surgery allows for real-time feedback and adjustments during the procedure.
Post-surgical rehabilitation may be smoother due to the more precise surgical technique.

It's important to note that the effectiveness of both traditional and robotic knee replacement surgeries can vary depending on the patient's specific condition and the surgeon's expertise.

Consultation with a healthcare professional is recommended to determine the most suitable approach for an individual's knee replacement surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

After having surgery with Robotic knee technology, the time it takes to recover will be different for each person. However, in most cases, you can expect to leave the hospital early and recover quickly. If your job doesn't require much physical activity, you may be able to return to work within 3-6 weeks. Research shows that people who have knee replacement surgery can start driving again in four to six weeks.

The time it takes to recover will vary for each person. If you have a partial or total knee replacement or a total hip replacement using robotic assistance, you can expect to stay in the hospital for one to two days after surgery. However, some patients may need to stay longer if they are older, have additional health risks, or other health conditions.

After you recover fully and without pain, you can participate in various activities such as walking, swimming, golfing, driving, easy hiking, biking, dancing, and other sports that don't put too much strain on your knee. You should also be able to play Doubles Tennis with good training.

Usually, Robotic knee replacement surgery takes less time than traditional/manual joint replacement surgery. Duration of surgery is 30 to 60 minutes depending on the complexity and experience of the doctors. This shorter duration reduces the time for Anesthesia, lowers the associated risks of Anesthesia, and decreases blood loss.

Medica Robotic Knee Replacement program does not require any pre operative imaging. The Medica Robotic is capable of performing an intra-operative scan which then created a 3D virtual model of the patient's unique anatomy, allowing the surgeon to develop a customized surgical plan. The utilization of this plan helps ensure an error-free procedure by taking into account the individual characteristics of the patient's joint.

We provide a range of services to ensure your well-being. We have a skilled team of surgeons and anesthesiologists to manage pain during surgery. Our staff includes qualified operating theatre personnel, ward staff, and resident medical officers. We also offer short hospital stays and early discharge. Even after you leave the hospital, we have a dedicated team available 24/7 to assist you and guide you in returning to your normal activities as soon as possible.
