India's first completely active robotic technology is made available for minimally invasive knee replacement surgery at the CK Birla Hospital in Delhi.
New Delhi, 9 February 2023: To address the country's growing orthopedic burden, the CK Birla Hospital launched India's first fully active robotic M.I.S. knee replacement program at their Punjabi Bagh facility. The most advanced surgical equipment is the state-of-the-art robot system, which is capable of 3D pre-planning, accurate assessment of deformities, and precise surgical results for exceptional patient outcomes.
The damaged tissue of the knee joint is removed and replaced with an artificial joint during robotic knee replacement surgery. Every year, over 2.5 lakh people in India undergo total knee replacement surgery. When compared to five years ago, this figure has nearly tripled. The development of fully active robotic systems and minimally invasive surgical techniques (MIS) has made it possible to conduct the treatment more safely, effectively, and with less blood loss and revision.
According to Dr. Ashwani Maichand of the Department of Orthopaedics at the CK Birla Hospital® in Delhi, "This fully active robot offers immense improvements in the area of knee replacement surgery compared to the old methods. We are combining the M.I.S. approach with robot technology for the first time in India. It combines precision and safety, is adaptable, and is easy to use. This cutting-edge technique offers patients excellent results, a low chance of infection, a quicker recovery, and less pain. We have launched this ultramodern and minimally invasive technology to ensure better care for our patients through improved diagnosis and precise results.”
