将机器人技术添加到我们的手术工具包中的主要优势是，它有可能进一步提高患者的临床结果, 通过提高植入物定位的精度，从而优化术后髋关节/膝关节功能.
Ivan M. Tomek, MDOrthopedic surgeons at two Dartmouth Health hospitals, Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC) and Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital (APD), are now offering knee, 髋关节和肩关节置换手术受益于最近获得的 joint mapping and robotic-assisted surgical tools. 这项技术使专家能够以更高的精度和可重复性植入人工关节.
“靠谱的网络火博体育推荐火博体育医疗中心的整形外科医生是该地区髋关节和膝关节置换手术数量最多的. 将机器人技术添加到我们的手术工具包中的主要优势是，它有可能进一步提高患者的临床结果, 通过提高植入物定位的精度，从而优化术后髋关节和膝关节功能," said Ivan M. Tomek, MD他是APD的关节置换外科医生，擅长前路髋关节置换术.
The three different technology platforms, 由同一制造商生产的植入物分别使用哪一种, 允许外科医生对患者的关节排列获得更精确的读数, soft tissues and anatomy to aid in planning. 在使用机器人辅助的膝关节置换手术中, 这可以在不需要在股骨管中放置一根棒的情况下完成, which is necessary with traditional instruments. 这有可能限制手术期间的出血量，避免增加手术暴露. This technology allows surgeons to plan their bone resections, or the amount of bone being removed, 精确到半毫米，以确保更好的稳定性和平衡性.
“机器人技术认识到每个病人和每个膝盖都是不同的, 它使我们能够更准确地测量和切割对每个病人最有意义的地方,” said Wayne E. Moschetti, MD, MS, an orthopedic surgeon based at DHMC and APD. “其中一个目标是减少关节周围软组织的释放，并使用该技术以一种适当平衡人工关节与患者韧带和肌腱的方式准备骨骼. 这有可能减少恢复时间，让病人感觉关节更“自然”."
一个平台允许外科医生通过增强现实眼镜观察患者，实时看到扫描关节的模拟运动, which then allows for more accurate placement of the implant. 另一个系统部署了先进的软件，可以在手术室缩短x射线成像过程中快速获得植入物位置的精确测量, 限制临床医生和患者的辐射暴露，改善髋关节置换术中植入物的位置. 第三个系统将外科医生的工具与绘图软件同步，以反馈来指导外科医生, 确保在手术过程中进行精确的切除，以准确地匹配手术计划.
到目前为止，以下外科医生接受了使用一种或多种新平台的培训. They will be performing surgeries at both DHMC and APD:
- Marcus P. Coe, MD, MS
- Timothy J. Lin, MD, MS
- Wayne E. Moschetti, MD, MS
- Alexander R. Orem, MD, MS
- Peter L. Schilling, MD, MS
- Michael B. Sparks, MD
- Ivan M. Tomek, MD
靠谱的网络火博体育推荐火博体育希区柯克诊所南部地区的这些医生也使用了这些最新的机器人平台:
Combined, these surgeons perform more than 2,在一年的时间里进行了200次主要的关节置换和修复, 使他们成为新罕布什尔州最有经验的关节外科医生, Vermont and Maine.
