The field of orthopedic care has seen significant progress in recent years thanks to the development of advanced surgical techniques, implants, and rehabilitation protocols. Orthopedic surgeries for hip and knee replacements are frequently necessary when chronic joint pain, progressing arthritis, limited mobility and daily activities become challenging. Additionally, injection therapy, physical therapy and medications are great, conservative treatment options for patients. These are often the first choice for treatment, managing pain, improving function, and preventing further damage.
Granite Orthopaedics is proud to o er diverse innovative treatments and therapy, resulting in patients experiencing better outcomes and faster recovery times.
A crucial advancement in orthopedic care is the introduction of minimally invasive surgical techniques. Dr. Randall specializes in OMNI robotics, a technology used in joint replacement surgery that utilizes advanced robotics and computer software to help perform surgery with high precision and accuracy. It allows her to plan the surgery beforehand and make adjustments during surgery, resulting in better outcomes. OMNI robotics reduces the risk of complications and speeds up recovery, making it a promising development that revolutionizes joint replacement surgery. As a result, patients often experience less tissue damage making these procedures an excellent choice for patients seeking optimal outcomes.
Granite Orthopaedics is dedicated to progress with orthopedic advancements, enabling patients to receive the best care and look forward to a more active and fulfilling lifestyle after treatment.
Rehabilitation protocols have also improved significantly in recent years.
Prior to surgery, patients now undergo pre-surgical conditioning to optimize their strength and range of motion. Iovera is a treatment used by Granite Orthopaedics before knee replacement surgery to help alleviate postoperative pain. It involves multiple cryotherapy injections that freeze certain nerves in the knee, temporarily blocking pain signals to the brain. The treatment can help reduce the amount of postoperative pain experienced by patients and decrease the need for opioid pain medication. Iovera is minimally invasive, and its e ects can last for several weeks to months. It is a promising treatment that can enhance the overall experience of knee replacement surgery for patients.
