Patient Perspective on Robotic-Assisted Total Joint Arthroplasty
Awareness and curiosity of robotic-assisted TJA exists; however, most patients did not appear to acknowledge superiority or benefits over manual surgery. Furthermore, patients appear to prefer surgeon proficiency in manual techniques, which may influence training programs in the future. Surgeons should weigh patient goals, expectations, outcomes, and costs when choosing to perform robotic TJA.
