Results of patient-reported outcome measures in robotic assisted versus conventional-instrumented Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA)
Author(s): Bertrand Kaper
Abstract
Surgical outcome analysis has shifted from surgeon- to patient-reported outcome measures (PROM).High rates of dissatisfaction (13-20%) in PROM after TKA have persisted despite significant advances in pain-management, implant design and introduction of newer surgical techniques.The NAVIO Robotic Assisted- TKA (RA-TKA) was introduced in May 2017 as an integrative approach to planning, execution and evaluation in TKA surgery. The goal of this study was to assess differences PROM scores between Conventional Instrumented TKA (CI-TKA) and RA-TKA.
