Arthroplasty

"Technological Advancements in Arthroplasty"

The key advancements in arthroplasty focus on enhancing precision, reducing recovery times, and improving implant longevity. Robotic-assisted joint replacement and computer-assisted navigation systems allow for more accurate component placement and better alignment, reducing complications. Minimally invasive surgical techniques are gaining popularity, offering faster recovery and less tissue trauma. Patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) customizes surgical tools for individual anatomy, further improving precision. Innovations in implant materials, such as cross-linked polyethylene and ceramic bearings, increase durability, while cemented and cementless fixation techniques continue to evolve for better implant stability. Lastly, pain management protocols now focus on multimodal approaches to reduce opioid use and improve postoperative recovery.
