Joint problems are increasing among people across the country due to sedentary lifestyles, lack of physical activity, obesity age, knee arthritis, and injuries. Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease in India, with a prevalence of 22–39%. It’s also the second most common rheumatologic problem in the country. In 1990, about 23.46 million people in India had OA, but that number increased to 62.35 million by 2019. Many encounters limited range of motion, are unable to do their daily activities with ease, and are advised surgeries to regain mobility. Patients seeking knee replacement surgery can now benefit from the expertise of Apollo Spectra’s skilled Orthopaedic surgeons combined with the precision and efficiency offered by the Rosa robotic system.
The ROSA system offers immediate guidance and feedback to make necessary adjustments as required throughout the surgical process. With its capacity to reach difficult anatomical regions, robotic technology enables better long-term results and feel more authentic. Through sophisticated X-rays and 3D images, the robot designs a tailored surgical plan considering specific factors such as bone structure and alignment, all while minimizing the harm to surrounding healthy tissues. Patients can expect smaller scars, less blood loss, and precise replacement of damaged cartilage and bone with customized artificial joints in knee surgeries, ultimately regaining mobility without pain.
