Utica, N.Y.-based Wynn Hospital added the Mako SmartRobotics system for hip and knee replacement procedures, according to a Dec. 1 report by Spectrum News 1.
The robot allows surgeons to perform less invasive procedures with higher accuracy by creating a 3D scan that is individualized for each patient.
Surgeons can be more precise with the system, as the robot helps reduce human error. The platform leads to better outcomes by helping the surgeon execute the preoperative plan.
