                      Robotic-assisted Joint Replacement Now Available at North Okaloosa Medical Center

                      2/6/2023

                      Dr. DeanCrestview, FL – Patients undergoing joint replacement procedures at North Okaloosa Medical Center can now benefit from robotic-assisted surgery. A new surgical robot with arms specifically designed for total knee, partial knee and total hip replacements provides surgeons with more precision and control.

                      “We are very excited to offer this technology to our community,” says Mike Nordness, CEO of North Okaloosa Medical Center. “This addition to our orthopedic service line further demonstrates our commitment to provide the community with outstanding healthcare.”

                      The robotic surgical system can help reduce the risk of infection, and generally provides patients with shorter hospital stays and a quicker return to normal activities. The use of robotic-assisted technology virtually extends the surgeon’s eyes and hands. Using the system, the surgeon operates while seated at a console viewing a 3-D image of the surgical area. The system mimics the surgeon’s hand movements in real time, at a smaller scale, allowing for more precision during surgery. The robot doesn’t replace the surgeon, but provides sharper detail and a 360-degree view of the surgery site, as well as greater dexterity in navigating complex anatomical structures.

                      “Robotic-assisted surgeries have been performed at North Okaloosa Medical Center for many years in other specialties, and we look forward to expanding this expertise to joint replacements,” Nordness says.
