What are the potential benefits of robotic-assisted joint arthroplasty? (Choose all that apply)
Marketing tool
Ligament/Uex/extension gap balancing
Less soft tissue releases
Soft tissue protection, reduced chance of nerve and vascular injury
Pre-operative planning, limited number of trays
No need to violate the femoral canal/decrease blood loss
Precise bone cuts
Decreased operative time
I do not see value in robotic-assisted joint arthroplasty
Other (please specify)
17.
What are the potential disadvantages of robotic-assisted joint arthroplasty? (Choose all that apply)
Learning curve
Limited implant selection
Increased capital expense
Increased disposable cost
Increased operative time
Additional personnel in the OR
Size and space taken up by the robot and associated components
Other (please specify)
