Learning curve for robotic assisted total knee arthroplasty: our experience with imageless hand-held Navio system.

The main purpose of this study was to determine the learning curve of Robotic assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty surgery through assessment of operative time and comparison with that of conventional jig based Total Knee Arthroplasty. The study included our first 75 Robotic assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty and 25 randomly selected conventional jig-based Total knee arthroplasty from June 2017 to December 2017. The 75 cases were divided into 3 groups of 25 consecutive cases.

Assessment of accuracy of an imageless hand-held robotic-assisted system in component positioning in total knee replacement: a prospective study.

In recent years, robotic technology is becoming more pervasive in joint arthroplasty. The role of robotics in joint replacement surgery is to bring precision and accuracy in bone preparation, implant positioning and soft tissue balancing. However, there is yet to be a study conducted to determine the accuracy of bone preparation done by a new robotic system.
