Expert Article: CUVIS Joint, Your Robotic Doctor: World's First Active Robotic Knee Replacement System
The world's first active robotic knee replacement system, the CUVIS Joint, has significantly enhanced joint replacement procedures.
Meril Healthcare Pvt. Ltd., the leading orthopaedic implant manufacturer in India, and Curexo Inc. of South Korea collaborated to bring this technology to India to raise healthcare standards.
A CLASS 3 AUTOMATION ROBOT SURGICAL SYSTEM, the CUVIS Joint robot system, can perform virtual surgery, precise cutting, and 3D pre-planning [1].
It is an ergonomic surgical robot that combines precision, safety, innovation, flexibility, and ease of use for orthopaedic surgeons.
Robot-assisted Knee Replacement
It is an AI (Artificial Intelligence ) -based programmed software that helps the surgeon perform the surgery; it is not intended to replace a surgeon.
Trivia! The first robotic knee surgery was done in the United Kingdom as early as 1988.
When should you not opt for robotic surgery:
A traditional approach is preferred when the patient is vulnerable to infections. Robotic surgery requires more time and leaves the surgical site open for longer.
The Advantages of a Robot-assisted Total Knee Replacement:
●
Implant
positioning
that
is
precise
and
accurate
●
Improved
muscle
and
ligament
balance
are
achieved.
●
The
bones
in
the
joint
are
precisely
aligned.
●
Recovery
after
surgery
is
easy.
Parts of THE CUVIS JOINT:
●
Planner
●
Main
console
●
The
robotic
arm
The process of Cuvis Joint Knee Replacement surgery:
1.
CT
images
2.
Conversion
of
CT
images
to
a
3D
model
to
create
a
surgical
plan
-
●
Establishing
the
proper
axis
between
the
shin
bone
and
hip
bone
●
The
setting
of
the
bone's
rotation
●
Choosing
the
implant
●
Using
virtual
surgery
to
see
the
expected
results
3. The patient is connected to the robot during surgery. The system handles the alignment, implant placement, and bone-cutting.
The benefits of the CUVIS Joint:
●
Accurate
bone
measurements
●
An
accurate
joint
space
check.
●
Thorough
3D
model
●
There
are
many
cutting
options
(full
or
partial),
and
the
cutting
order
can
be
changed.
●
Several
cutting
speeds,
with
a
top
speed
of
50
mm
per
second.
●
Cutting,
positioning,
and
alignment
accuracy
down
to
the
millimetre.
●
Optical
tracking
systems
●
Cutting
accuracy
0.5mm
●
Positional
accuracy
is
1.0
mm
or
less.
●
Real-time
monitoring
enables
manual
operation,
and
an
emergency
stops
and
freeze
of
the
device
as
needed.
The CUVIS joint works on four core principles:
●
Simplicity
●
Flexibility
●
Accuracy
●
Safety
Since its debut on December 13, 2020, Bengaluru-based Dr Chandrashekar has completed more than 120 knee replacement surgeries [2].
On A Final Note...
Studies and research have demonstrated that robotic surgeries simulated by AI have many benefits over conventional ones. Knee replacement surgery as a treatment for osteoarthritis has a bright future in India.
