Fairview Range is thrilled to announce the addition of orthopedic robotic-assisted surgery using the state-of-the-art Mako SmartRobotics™ system.
This exciting advancement brings cutting-edge precision and patient-centered care to our community, particularly for knee replacement patients. With the Mako robot’s high-tech features, our orthopedic team provides enhanced accuracy, personalized surgery plans, and improved patient recovery times.
What Mako SmartRobotics™ Brings to Orthopedic Surgery
The Mako system revolutionizes joint surgery by combining 3D CT-based planning, AccuStop™ haptic technology, and insightful data analytics. These technologies enable our surgeons to gather highly accurate, personalized data to guide each step of a procedure.
With these measurements, our orthopedic team can make precise incisions unique to each patient’s body. This significantly reduces trauma in the surrounding tissues, lowers the risk of complications, and promotes faster recovery times.
How it Works
Before surgery, the Mako system creates a 3D model of the patient’s joint, providing detailed insights into the specific needs of each case. During surgery, this technology offers real-time feedback to help the surgeon stay within pre-planned boundaries, enhancing accuracy.
Benefits of Robotic Surgery
The precision offered by the Mako system contributes to consistent, high-quality outcomes in every surgery. Patients often experience:
- Reduced pain and faster recovery
- Improved joint function and comfort
- Reduced likelihood of revision surgery
