ROSA® Knee Replacement at Crisp Regional | Robotic Assisted Joint Care

Freedom of movement is essential to living confidently and independently. At Crisp Regional, we’re proud to offer the ROSA® Robotic Knee System, bringing advanced surgical precision to patients right here in our community.

What is the ROSA® Knee System?

The ROSA® Knee System is a robotic surgical assistant that helps our orthopedic surgeons perform total knee replacement procedures with a new level of accuracy. Using real-time data and 3D imaging of your unique anatomy, ROSA supports more personalized and precise implant placement, which may lead to a smoother recovery and longer-lasting results. This technology is especially helpful for improving outcomes in patients with complex knee anatomy.

Who Can Benefit from ROSA®?

This advanced technology is designed for individuals experiencing early-to-mid-stage osteoarthritis of the knee. Common symptoms include:

• Persistent knee pain

• Swelling or stiffness

• Knee locking

If conservative treatments like medication or physical therapy are no longer effective, ROSA® robotic-assisted surgery could be the next step toward restoring mobility and comfort.

How Does It Work?

ROSA® doesn’t replace your surgeon. It enhances their ability to deliver exceptional results. Prior to surgery, X-rays are used to create a 3D model of your knee, enabling our surgeons to craft a customized surgical plan.

During the procedure, the ROSA system uses optical trackers and a mini-camera to monitor your knee in real-time. It functions like a GPS for your surgeon, making precise adjustments based on your anatomy and any movement during surgery. Your surgeon remains in full control, using ROSA as a tool to increase accuracy and confidence.

Benefits of ROSA® Robotic Knee Replacement

Patients undergoing ROSA-assisted surgery may experience:

• Smaller incisions and less scarring

• Minimal blood loss

• Reduced post-op pain

• Faster recovery time

• More accurate implant positioning

• Greater implant longevity

What to Expect During Recovery

Following surgery, recovery is typically quicker due to the minimally invasive approach. While some stiffness or discomfort is normal, most patients can resume light activities within a couple of weeks. Your orthopedic team will guide you through:

• Pain management

• Surgical site care

• Gradual return to movement

• Customized rehabilitation plans
