He has now introduced World's Safest First Fully Automatic Robotic Arm Technology for Hip and Knee Joint Replacement in Mumbai. Dr Shetty is the founder of Robotic Knee Replacement Clinics across Mumbai with a vision to provide True Robotic Experience & Simplify Robotic Solutions for patients. He has introduced Third Generation Fully Automatic Robotic Arm "True Active Safest Robot" in his practice & is one of the first surgeons in Western Suburban Mumbai & one of the few surgeons in India to offer Robotic Joint Replacement Surgery with True Active Robot to patients looking for Submillimeter Accuracy, Precision & Zero Error.
1. What are the types of Robots Available for Knee Replacement in India
Passive Robot: X-Ray based systems, only does a job of knee navigation & does not even help in preoperative planning.
Semi-Active Robot: CT image based systems with a haptic feedback arm, here the arm needs to be guided to the bone to take bone cuts. This Robot cannot do key steps like box cut, lug holes, re-cuts. They are to be done manually & risks human error.
Active Robot: CT image based system with worlds first fully automatic arm helps the surgeon perform a accurate pre-planning before the actual surgery is done, plans the actual size of implants, takes all the bony cuts & is automatic. Surgeon holds a remote to maneuver the robotic arm & the cutting tool to make all cuts with utmost precision & safety.
2. Is robotic surgery really better than conventional manual knee replacement surgery?
Yes when compared robotic knee replacement has advantages in terms of better implant positioning, precise surgical bone cuts, least human intervention, faster recovery & least hospital stay. Its minimally invasive nature also causes lesser tissue trauma, less blood loss & faster recovery.
3. Is there any risk associated with robotic knee replacement surgery?
Advanced features like Bone Movement Monitoring, Haptic Feedback mechanism, best in class loaded safety features the Active Robots monitors everything in real time & do not cause any additional risk to patients.
4. Are all the robots for knee replacement same?
No not all robots are the same & infact most are passive and risk human error, only the latest Third Generation Robot with Fully Automatic Robotic Arm is autonomous in complete sense with Zero error & loads of safety features.
5. What are the benefits of Active Robot?
The benefits are:
Preplanning - Surgery can be accurately pre-planned before the actual surgery is done
Implant size planned before surgery - Necessary Implant size can be made available during the surgery.
Reduced Time of Surgery & Associated Complications - Preplanning reduce surgical time which helps reduce the time of Anaesthesia.
Submillimeter Accuracy and Precision - Robotic Arm and it's burring tool delivers Submillimeter Accuracy
Customized Alignment - Boon to patients with severe deformity
Painless Surgery - Faster Surgery, Accuracy & Precision reduce the pain after the surgery.
Zero Error
Minimal Human Interference - Less staff required
Faster Recovery - Mobilization within few hours helps faster recovery
No need of Blood transfusion
Early Discharge
Reduced Medications
Suturless Surgery
Safest Surgery - Loads of inbuilt safety features make it safe
Longevity of Implants & Long Term Good Results - Accurate placement of implants with precision & alignment results in longevity of implants.
Save the Planet - Reduced Disposables helps contribute towards reducing the Carbon Footprint & help save the planet.
