Journal: The Journal of arthroplasty
Published Date: Feb 13, 2022

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The cost-effectiveness of robotic-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (RA-UKA) remains unclear. Time-driven activity-based costing (TDABC) has been shown to accurately reflect true resource utilization. This study aimed to compare true facility costs between RA-UKA and conventional UKA.
