Washington Regional Medical Center is now offering Zimmer Biomet’s ROSA® Hip System, a robotic technology that helps surgeons customize the placement of hip implants for their patients.
ROSA® Hip is a robotic surgical assistant designed to help surgeons perform minimally invasive hip replacement surgery. Data provided by ROSA® Hip provides surgeons with an optimized view of the hip joint during surgery, allowing for greater accuracy of hip implant placement tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy.
According to Kris Hanby, MD, medical director of Washington Regional’s Total Joint Center, more precise implant positioning leads to better results for patients. “The minimally invasive procedure with ROSA® Hip is designed to accelerate recovery time and reduce pain,” said Hanby. “We're fortunate to have this technology, and Washington Regional is leading the way in innovation and technology in Northwest Arkansas.”
