Why Robotic Assistance in Knee Surgery is Important
Robotic technology in knee surgery is becoming more popular because it can be more precise and accurate. Older robotic systems were not always efficient and could be difficult for surgeons to learn. The VELYS® system at Community Memorial integrates smoothly into our surgical process. It uses advanced technology and planning tools to help our surgeons make precise cuts and place implants correctly. This system aligns the implant with the patient's tissues, providing a personalized fit that enhances joint stability and function.
Key Features and Benefits of the VELYS® System
- Valuable Insights: VELYS® uses a computer to create a 3D model of your knee. This helps the surgeon see how the new knee will fit and work. It also gives real-time feedback during surgery to ensure the best placement.
- Versatile Execution: The user-friendly design allows surgeons to operate smoothly, making procedures more efficient.
- Verified Performance: Working with the ATTUNE® Knee System, which has been shown to improve patient outcomes, the VELYS® system ensures consistent results and faster recovery times.
What to Expect During Knee Replacement Surgery with VELYS®
Under general anesthesia, the surgeon will perform the knee replacement using the VELYS® system for guidance. The robotic assistant provides real-time data and adapts to even the smallest movements, ensuring precise implant placement. The damaged bone and cartilage are replaced with metal and plastic components, secured with surgical cement. The system’s high-speed camera and technology enhance the accuracy and stability of the surgery.
Postoperative Care and Recovery
Recovery involves close monitoring and following a personalized rehabilitation plan, which includes:
Most patients can return to normal activities within a few months, although it may take longer to return to sports or high-impact activities. Follow-up appointments are essential to monitor your progress and address any concerns.
