The main advantage of adding robotics to our surgical toolkit is that it has the potential to elevate our patients’ clinical outcomes even further, by improving the precision of implant positioning 和 thereby optimizing post-surgical hip/knee function.

十大网赌平台推荐两家医院的整形外科医生, 十大网赌平台推荐希区柯克医疗中心爱丽丝·派克纪念医院, 现在我向你屈膝, hip 和 shoulder joint replacement procedures that benefit from recently-acquired 关节测绘和机器人辅助手术工具. This technology allows specialists to implant artificial joints with more precision 和 reproducibility.

"The orthopedic surgeons at 十大网赌平台推荐卫生 perform among the highest number of hip 和 knee replacements in the region. The main advantage of adding robotics to our surgical toolkit is that it has the potential to elevate our patients' clinical outcomes even further, by improving the precision of implant positioning 和 thereby optimizing post-surgical hip 和 knee function,” 伊凡米. 马里兰州Tomek, a joint replacement surgeon based at APD who specializes in anterior approach hip replacement.

三种不同的技术平台, which are each used for implants made by the same manufacturers, allow surgeons to achieve more precise readings on a patient’s joint alignment, 软组织和解剖学来帮助计划. In the case of knee replacement surgery using robotic assistance, this can be done without the need to place a rod in the canal of the femur, 传统乐器中哪些是必需的. This has the potential to limit the amount of bleeding during surgery 和 avoid increased surgical exposure. This technology allows surgeons to plan their bone resections, 或者被移除的骨头的数量, down to the half millimeter to ensure better stability 和 balance.

"Robotic technology recognizes that every patient 和 every knee is different, 和 it enables us to more accurately measure 和 cut where it makes the most sense for each individual patient,” 韦恩·E. Moschetti, MD, MS他是DHMC和APD的整形外科医生. "One of the goals is to release less soft tissue around the joint 和 use the technology to prepare the bone in a way that appropriately balances the artificial joint to the patients’ ligaments 和 tendons. This has the potential to reduce recovery times 和 makes the joint feel more 'natural' to the patient."

One platform allows surgeons to see a simulation of the scanned joint moving in real-time by observing the patient through augmented reality glasses, which then allows for more accurate placement of the implant. Another system deploys advanced software to quickly gain precise measurements of implant position during a shortened X-ray imagining process in the operating room, limiting radiation exposure for clinicians 和 patients 和 improving implant position during hip replacement. A third system synchronizes the surgeon’s tools with mapping software to guide the surgeon with feedback, ensuring precise resections are made during the operation to accurately match the surgical plan.

So far, the following surgeons are trained in using one or more of the new platforms. 他们将在DHMC和APD进行手术。

These providers at the Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinics Southern Region practices also use these latest robotic platforms:

结合, 这些外科医生做了2个以上的手术,200 primary joint replacements 和 revisions over the course of a year, making them some of the most experienced joint surgeons in New Hampshire, 佛蒙特州和缅因州.
