Significantly greater alignment accuracy with robotic assistance in UKA .
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Improved Accuracy of Component Positioning with Robotic-Assisted Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty: Data from a Prospective, Randomized Controlled Study
J Bone Joint Surg Am. 2016 Apr 20;98(8):627-35139 patients scheduled for unicompartmental knee arthroplasty were randomized to the procedure using either robotic-assistance technology or conventional instrumentation. The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of postoperative component alignment, relative to preoperatively planned alignment, between groups. Postoperative CT was performed at 3 months. The robotic-assistance group demonstrated significantly lower median error between pre- and postoperative alignment of femoral and tibial components in the sagittal, coronal, and axial planes when compared to the group which underwent surgery with conventional instrumentation.
