Bone Cement majorly plays a role in Total Knee Replacement (TKR) and Total Hip Replacement (THR) surgeries.
Total Knee Replacement
TKR is an orthopedic surgical procedure that involves the replacement of the knee surfaces with a metal implant or a polyethylene plastic. It is done to improve the quality of life of older people suffering from osteoarthritis. Total knee arthroplasty is more regularly done on women and aged people. In the US and the UK, the bulk of TKA operations were conducted on women. An increase in TKA surgeries is proposed to happen with an accelerating pace of younger TKA beneficiaries below the age of 60.
Total Hip Replacement
Hip replacement surgeries are the removal and replacement of the femur and pelvis connected to the hip joint. This procedure is also used to treat injuries like broken or improper growth of bone. The usual general type of hip replacement surgery is termed total hip replacement. In this operation, torn or broken parts of the hip are substituted with synthetic implants. The socket is replaced with a strong plastic cup. The femoral head will be detached and replaced with a ball made from ceramic or a metal alloy.
Post-operative outcomes of TKR
One of the recent advances in Total Knee replacement is managing the patient’s response to the stress of surgeries. A few of the processes that can be done are
Blood loss reduction
During TKR, there is a risk of losing blood excessively. This can be prevented by using Tranexamic acid as a topical agent. Researchers found that topical application of tranexamic acid majorly reduced blood loss and lowered patients’ need for transfusions. Tranexamic acid is of low cost and the blood transfusion costs higher, using tranexamic acid could be a cost-saving idea.
Managing Pain
Patients undergoing TKR require pain management. According to the study, a periarticular injection with multimodal drugs reduced the requirement of analgesic in TKR.
Computer – Aids
Visualizing the site of surgery helps the surgeons to align the components correctly and prevents cases of malalignment.
Cutting blocks
This is a bridge between Computer-aided and conventional TKA. They are customized to the patient’s requirements by collecting the patient’s MRI data. More investigation is wanted on some of the fresh strides in TKA. Tranexamic acid use, decreasing postoperative periarticular injections to local anesthetic only, may improve clinical efficiency.
Total Hip Arthroplasty – Recent Advances
THA is considered to be a success if it attains certain objectives like
- positioning of implant accurately
- biomechanics of hip restoration
This has lead to the development of new techniques like computer-aided navigations and robotics to minimize errors made by humans and improve the accuracy of implant positions.
3D printing technology
Recently, 3D printing technology has been applied in THA. Patient-specific instruments are built using this technology allowing the surgeons to place the implant accurately based on the pre-operative plan.
Robotic-Assisted Total Hip Arthroplasty
In the future, the already tried out robotics-assisted THA can be skewed more with affordability and enhanced efficiency under consideration. Furthermore, there are however infrequent constraints of robotic THA, installation prices, extra radioactivity vulnerability, knowledge curve, and the adaptability of the robotic systems with an inadequate amount of implants. Now, let’s look at a few of the top orthopedic hospitals in each region of India. These hospitals use the latest technologies, procedures and more education on the new technologies could be helpful to them. Some of the Orthopedic hospitals are as follows
Chennai
- Apollo Hospitals, Greams Road
- Miot Institute of Orthopedics
- Gleneagles Global Hospitals
- SIMS Hospital
Mumbai
Delhi
Kolkata
Distributors deal with the aforementioned Hospitals and distribute Bone cement and other orthopedic products.
