The technology allows surgeons to perform difficult procedures with greater precision and control. Robotic systems can place spinal implants with millimeter-level precision, a critical factor for surgical outcomes. This accuracy supports a less invasive approach, which contributes to a quicker healing process.
This advanced form of spine surgery typically requires smaller incisions than traditional open surgery. This minimally invasive approach results in less damage to surrounding tissue. Consequently, patients often experience reduced postoperative pain and a quicker healing period.
Recovery timelines vary based on the individual's condition and the specifics of the surgery. While a full recovery may take six weeks or more, some patients can return to light, daily activities in about a month.
Some studies suggest that robotic-assisted surgery may reduce operative time in certain procedures, though this can vary. A shorter procedure time can help decrease risks associated with prolonged surgery and anesthesia. This efficiency, combined with greater precision, may lead to a reduction in adverse outcomes.
One large study found robotic-guided surgery was associated with a lower risk of complications and revision surgery compared to conventional methods. The research also noted an 11.0 times lower risk for revision surgery compared to conventional methods. These findings indicate potential improvements in patient safety for spinal fusion procedures.
Further research has examined the robotic-assisted approach. A systematic review of 20 randomized controlled trials indicated that while robotic assistance improves the accuracy of pedicle screw placement, its effect on overall clinical efficacy compared to freehand surgery requires more study.
Other potential benefits noted in various studies include reduced intraoperative blood loss, lowered radiation exposure for the patient, and shorter hospital stays.
Hess Spine and Orthopedics is dedicated to using advanced technology to improve patient care and outcomes. By offering patient-focused treatment options like minimally invasive procedures, the practice aims to improve the recovery experience.
