The technical expertise used in spine surgery brings more precision. With the help of research, specialized acumen and computerization, surgeries are now attaining more accuracy and patients are experiencing speedy recovery. It is quite common for a patient to have presumptions about a surgery. Though a marginal amount of people report ineffectiveness after a surgery this can surely be one major reason for people to avoid an operation. Sometimes it is about luck or some fault, which can cause more traumas. To avoid the same, technical help is desired and now Robots are being looked upon for treating spinal problems. This also brings more support to the team of orthopedic surgeons.
Spine Assist – A robotic assistance for surgeries
It is now getting common for doctors to conduct surgeries with very little invasion. Prof Moshe Shoham was a pioneer to bring the virtues of robotic assistance in spinal surgeries with the Spine Assist system. The Technion institute has to be lauded for this major innovation. Orthopedicians are now more confident while conducting the surgeries as there is a lot of precision here. The entire procedure is done based on the customized anatomy of the patient. There is now more demand for this type of surgery. At the Haifa Technion Israel institute of Technology, this innovation is appreciated. The marketing and popularity is also due to Mazor Robotics.
About 400 surgeries are now done with this machine. It also helps people to correct discs, fit in the screws, correct scoliosis and also help in several other surgical needs.
More about Spine Assist
Many Israeli orthopedicians are now looking for upgrades in the system to help them use the technology extensively. Though the system is there from 3 years, it is practiced in Israel prominently in Hadassah University Medical centers in Jerusalem’s Ein Kerem, Mount Scopus and Haifa’s Carmel Medical Center.
In the initial phase, a CT scan of the patient is taken to understand the spinal problem. Under the work of an anesthetic, there are 2 major X-rays taken from the back as well as from the side. A blueprint in the 3 D effect gives more knowledge about the extent of the correction that has to be made. It is quite common to fit screws and also make other repairs like correction of deformities or manage the correction in discs that are herniated. The method is also desirable for fitting screws in the spinal column.
Usually during minimal invasive surgeries, the radiation is high and this causes danger to the medical team as well as the patient. There can be side effects too. But with Spine Assist the radiation is quite low and minimal. This is one clear advantage of this robotic system. Dr Hadomi also believes that there is no harm to the neighboring blood vessels, tissues and spine due to this, hence it is good for orthopedic surgeons.
Benefits of Spine Assist
It is good to know that this may also be used later for brain surgeries. The benefits of Spine Assist can be felt largely as it offers speedy and painless recovery to many. This is also based on the results and success of 10000 implants and more than 2000 operations.
