Computer-Assisted Total Knee Replacement

Computer Assisted Total Knee Replacement, also known as Computer Assisted Surgery ( CAS ) or Computer Assisted Orthopedic Surgery ( CAOS ), is a modern technique that is used to enhance the accuracy and precision of surgical procedures with the help of robotic assistants and computer navigations.

With the help of computer-assisted total knee replacement, some particular types of sensors and tracking devices have been placed on the patient's leg and knee joints by doctors and surgeons during the surgical procedure. These devices play a crucial role by providing factual time information and feedback to the surgeons with the help of computer systems. With the help of this factual time information, surgeons create a digital map of a patient's knee or leg anatomy and process the surgery more efficiently and precisely. 

When the surgery is going on, surgeons use computer assistance to guide the surgical instruments and placement of artificial joints properly. The computer system helps the surgeon in such a way that it provides them visual and audio feedback through which they can achieve the optimal alignment and balance and implant the positioning properly without even facing a single mistake. These computer assistant devices totally focus on helping doctors and surgeons with their accuracy and alignment for better outcomes by reducing complications and facilitating the quick recovery of the patient.

Computer-assisted total knee replacement is the most valuable tool for surgeons, which helps them in many complex surgeries where the chances of deformity and anatomical variation percentages are high. Knee replacement surgeries do require computer assistance and several traditional medical techniques without the help of computer navigation for successful outcomes.
