Teleticino (Zoom) - A new robot in the operating room
With Johnson&Johnson MedTech's VELYS™ robot for knee replacement, the Clinic's knee surgeon specialists, during surgery and via a dedicated digital display, can view personalized data on the anatomy and function of the patient's knee.
Thanks to special sensors, the robot detects in real time and with particular precision the position, alignment and stability of the knee; these are key factors that, thanks to the robotic arm, make it possible to further improve the precision and quality of the surgery, personalizing the implant.
The robot does not operate autonomously, but assists the surgeon at every stage of the procedure, yet leaves the surgeon in full control of the operation.
This technology enables unprecedented precision in knee replacement surgeries. Robotic assistance results in less invasive surgeries, with less blood loss, and pursues the goal of leading to a significant reduction in the patient's recovery time, therefore, a faster return to everyday life.
