PURPOSE: Computer-assisted arthroplasty supports the surgeons in planning, simulating, and performing the replacement procedure, using robotic or navigation technologies. However, the safety of the technology has not been widely ascertained. Food and...
To evaluate the effects of robot-assisted rehabilitation training on knee function and the daily activity ability of older adults following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Eighty-eight patients who underwent TKA were randomly assigned to a robot-assis...
PURPOSE: In order to minimize errors during achieving the targeted alignment of the total knee arthroplasty (TKA) components, robotic-assisted surgery has been introduced with the aim to help surgeons to improve implant survival, clinical outcomes, a...
This study aimed to assess the preliminary outcomes of kinematically aligned robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with patient-specific cartilage thickness measurement. Patients who underwent kinematically aligned robot-assisted TKA were incl...
: The number of patients who undergo multiple operations on a knee is increasing. The objective of this study was to develop a deep learning algorithm that could detect 17 different surgical implants on plain knee radiographs. : An internal dataset c...
PURPOSE: The assistance of robot technology is introduced into the operating theatre to improve the precision of a total knee arthroplasty. However, as with all new technology, new technology requires a learning curve to reach adequate proficiency. T...
INTRODUCTION: Robotically assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA) is an emerging surgical tool. The purpose of this study was to analyze the length of time taken to perform the key steps of a RA-TKA for a surgeon and centre new to the MAKO robotic ...
PURPOSE: Members of the European Knee Society (EKS) recently took part in an online questionnaire on robot-assisted TKA. The purpose of this study was to report and analyse the questionnaire results on the demographics of users versus non-users, the ...
