Same Day Joint Replacement

Advancements in orthopedic surgery, particularly in joint replacements, have transformed the patient experience by making same-day procedures a reality. This innovative approach combines minimally invasive techniques with enhanced recovery protocols, enabling patients to return home the same day, significantly reducing hospital stays. With smaller incisions and tissue-sparing methods, patients experience less pain, reduced scarring, and quicker healing. The benefits extend beyond the operating room, as patients are up and walking within hours, leading to faster recovery and improved post-operative outcomes. The ability to recover at home also allows for more personalized care, tailored to each patient’s unique needs, making same-day joint replacement a game-changer in orthopedic surgery.

Same-Day Total Knee Replacement

Total knee replacement is a very successful surgical treatment for knee arthritis. Over the years, Same-Day Total Knee Replacement surgical techniques have been developed to lessen tissue trauma and improve patient outcomes. This minimally invasive approach involves much smaller incisions than the usual 10-12 inch incisions used in the traditional knee replacement and spares the quadriceps muscle and tendon, which control bending of the knee, from being cut to access the knee joint.

Same-Day Hip Replacement

Hip replacement surgery is one of the most common orthopedic surgeries performed. It involves the replacement of the damaged hip bone (ball-shaped upper end of the femur) with a ceramic ball attached to a metal stem that is fixed into the femur and placing a new cup with a special liner in the pelvis. Traditionally, the surgery was performed with a large, open incision and required the patient to stay in the hospital for several days.
