Abstract
Navigation-assisted surgical procedures in orthopedics and trauma surgery have become increasingly widespread over the last 20 years. In addition to applications in spinal surgery, they are primarily available for knee and hip endoprosthetics. On the one hand, computer-assisted procedures have been increasingly expanded with robotic assistance systems in recent years, and on the other hand, so-called handheld navigation systems have been developed, which enable specialized use directly in the operating field at lower acquisition costs. The aim of this overview is to describe current handheld systems and to present the respective technical principles and the available scientific results. Three handheld systems for TKA use, two for THA use and one system to support pedicle screw placement on the spine are presented.

An updated meta-analysis comparing complications, functional, clinically relevant and radiological outcomes of accelerometer based portable navigation and conventional technique of total knee arthroplasty. J Orthop 2023; 46:24-50. [PMID: 37942220 PMCID: PMC10630554 DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2023.10.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2023] [Revised: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/15/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Since previous studies, including small-scale meta-analyses comparing accelerometer-based portable navigation (APN-TKA) and conventional techniqueof total knee arthroplasty (CONV-TKA), have reported divergent results, there is a need for an updated meta-analysis to compare complications, functional outcomes, clinically relevant outcomes and radiographic alignment of components. Methods This meta-analysis was conducted as per PRISMA guidelines. Randomised controlled trials, and non-randomised comparative cohort studies in English language on primary TKA were included. The complications compared were Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), Pulmonary Embolism (PE), infection, manipulation under anaesthesia (MUA) for postoperative knee stiffness, re-operation and mortality. The functional outcomes compared were the Knee Society Knee Score, Knee Society Score function, Oxford Knee Score, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index. The evaluated clinically relevant outcomes were surgical time, blood loss, drop in haematocrit, tourniquet time, postoperative knee flexion and complications). The number of radiological outliers; as well as the absolute values of the alignment of the overall prosthesis, femoral and tibial components in both coronal and sagittal planes, was assessed. Results Twenty-five studies were included. Both the groups were comparable in terms of preoperative demographic features. There was no difference in complications and functional outcomes. Operation time was longer in APN-TKA (p < 0.00001) but there was no difference in rest of the clinically relevant outcomes. Restoration of the lower limb mechanical axis (p = 0.003) and coronal femoral alignment angle (p = 0.0002) was better with APN. APN also significantly reduced the risk of the odds of outliers of lower limb mechanical axis (p < 0.0001), coronal femoral alignment (p = 0.03), coronal tibial alignment (p < 0.0001) and sagittal tibial alignment (p = 0.0001). Conclusion The improvement in the accuracy of implantation by the use of APN-TKA, as determined by the overall alignments of prosthesis, or femoral and tibial components, does not necessarily translate into lesser complications and better functional and clinical outcomes. Level of evidence Therapeutic study, Level II.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the precision of bony resections during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) performed using different computer-assisted technologies. METHODS Patients who underwent a primary TKA using an imageless accelerometer-based handheld navigation system (KneeAlign2®, OrthAlign Inc.) or computed tomography-based large-console surgical robot (Mako®, Stryker Corp.) from 2017 to 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Templated alignment targets and demographic data were collected. Coronal plane alignment of the femoral and tibial components and tibial slope were measured on postoperative radiographs. Patients with excessive flexion or rotation preventing accurate measurement were excluded. RESULTS A total of 240 patients who underwent TKA using either a handheld (n = 120) or robotic (n = 120) system were included. There were no statistically significant differences in age, sex, and BMI between groups. A small but statistically significant difference in the precision of the distal femoral resection was observed between the handheld and robotic cohorts (1.5° vs. 1.1° difference between templated and measured alignments, p = 0.024), though this is likely clinically insignificant. There were no significant differences in the precision of the tibial resection between the handheld and robotic groups (coronal plane 0.9° vs. 1.0°, n.s.; sagittal plane 1.2° vs. 1.1°, n.s.). There were no significant differences in the rate of overall precision between cohorts (n.s.). CONCLUSIONS A high degree of component alignment precision was observed for both imageless handheld navigation and CT-based robotic cohorts. Surgeons considering options for computer-assisted TKA should take other important factors, including surgical principles, templating software, ligament balancing, intraoperative adjustability, equipment logistics, and cost, into account.

Accelerometer-based portable navigation, a faster guide compared to computer-assisted navigation in bilateral total knee arthroplasty-a randomized controlled study. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2023; 31:786-792. [PMID: 34997248 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-021-06842-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2021] [Accepted: 12/03/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE There are limited studies in the literature comparing the alignment accuracy of the large console, imageless, computer-assisted navigation (CAN) and portable, hand-held, accelerometer-based navigation (ABN) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This study was aimed to compare the operative time, blood loss, radiological, clinical and functional outcomes between CAN- and ABN-guided bilateral TKA. METHODS From Jan 2016 to Dec 2017, 50 patients who underwent bilateral TKA were randomized to undergo either CAN-guided or ABN-guided TKA. Tourniquet time and blood loss were recorded, and intra-op complications were noted. Post-op radiological outcomes at 2 weeks were compared between the groups. The clinical and functional outcomes using the American Knee Society Scores (KSS) and Oxford Knee Score (OKS) were recorded pre-operatively and post-operatively at 3, 6, 12 months and at the end of the study with a minimum follow-up of 48 months. RESULTS Both groups were well-matched in terms of patient demographic parameters. The mean surgical time per knee was significantly lower in the ABN group (54.5 ± 5.6 min) compared to the CAN group (61.7 ± 13.7 min; p < 0.01). Mean blood loss per knee in the ABN group was 592.1 ± 245.3 mL compared to 682.8 ± 322.0 in the CAN group (p = 0.11). In the ABN group, the mean post-op mechanical axis was 1.2 ± 3.2° (vs 1.5 ± 2.2° in the CAN group, p 0.6), the frontal femoral angle was 88.8 ± 2.3° (vs 88.8 ± 1.8° in the CAN group, p 1.0) and frontal tibial angle was 90.1 ± 1.6° (vs 89.7 ± 1.1° in the CAN group, p 0.14). At 48 month follow-up, the mean functional KSS in the ABN group was 89.0 ± 5.7 (vs 88.1 ± 4.5 in the CAN group, p 0.37) and the mean OKS was 40.5 ± 2.8 (vs 39.6 ± 3.2 in the CAN group, p 0.12). CONCLUSION Portable, hand-held ABN offers alignment accuracy and functional outcomes in TKA similar to that with CAN, with a reduced duration of surgery. There was no advantage of either of the techniques in terms of clinical or functional outcomes at 48 month follow-up. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 1.

Abstract
Introduction Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) can be associated with significant peri- and post-operative blood loss necessitating blood transfusion. The blood loss may be relatively less when the accelerometer-based handheld navigation system (HHNS) is used, as there is neither a need for intramedullary breach nor additional pin insertions. The primary hypothesis was that HHNS instrumentation reduced perioperative blood loss when compared with conventional instrumentation, and to prove this, we compared the perioperative parameters like tourniquet time, hemoglobin loss, and estimated blood loss between patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty using conventional instrumentation with handheld navigation instrumentation. Methods This prospective comparative study involves 40 patients in the HHNS group and 40 patients in the conventional group based on the instrumentation used, respectively. Tourniquet was used in all the cases. Patient characteristics like age, sex, body mass index (BMI), American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) grade, and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) were recorded. The perioperative parameters like tourniquet time, the estimated blood loss, hemoglobin loss, blood transfusions, and the number of units transfused were recorded and compared between the groups. Results There was no significant difference in age, BMI, ASA grade, or CCI between the two groups. The tourniquet time was 83.7 ± 9.6 in the navigation and 73.9 ± 10.3 in the conventional group. The estimated Hb loss was lower at 2.5 ± 1.6 in the HHNS group compared to 3.0 ± 1.8 in the conventional group (p<0.001). Similarly, estimated blood loss was also lower at 830 ± 285ml for the HHNS group compared to 1088 ± 228 in the conventional group. Two patients in the navigation group had a total of four units transfused, whereas three patients in the conventional group had five units of blood transfusion. Conclusions The primary hypothesis that HHNS reduced perioperative blood loss was confirmed by the results of our study. We demonstrated that HHNS instrumentation significantly decreased the estimated blood loss, drain volume, and hemoglobin loss compared to conventional instrumentation with similar operating times. Though blood transfusions were seen in fewer patients, there was no significant reduction in blood transfusions by HHNS instrumentation.

Improved joint line and posterior offset restoration in primary total knee replacement using a robotic-assisted surgical technique: An international multi-centre retrospective analysis of matched cohorts. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0272722. [PMID: 36006969 PMCID: PMC9409519 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0272722] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background
Accurate restoration of joint line height and posterior offset in primary Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) have been shown to be important factors in post-operative range of movement and function. The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of joint line and posterior offset restoration in a group of patients that underwent robotic-assisted TKA (raTKA). A matched cohort of patients that underwent a TKA using a conventional jig-based technique was assessed for comparison. The null hypothesis was that there would be no difference between groups.
Methods
This study was a retrospective analysis of a cohort of 120 patients with end-stage knee osteoarthritis that received a TKA using the Navio Surgical System (n = 60), or Conventional manual TKA (n = 60). Procedures were performed between 1 January 2019 and 1 October 2019 at six different centres. Joint line height and posterior offset was measured pre-operatively and post-operatively on calibrated weight bearing plain radiographs of the knee. Two observers performed measurements using validated measuring tools. A BMI and age-matched cohort of patients that underwent TKA using a conventional technique in the same six centres were assessed for comparison. Mean values, standard deviations and confidence intervals are presented for change and absolute change in joint line height and posterior offset. Student’s t-test was used to compare the changes between techniques.
Results
Patients that underwent robotic-assisted TKA had joint line height and posterior offset restored more accurately than patients undergoing TKA using a conventional technique. Average change from pre-operative measurement in joint line height using raTKA was -0.38mm [95% CI: -0.79 to 0.03] vs 0.91 [0.14 to 1.68] with the conventional technique. Average absolute change in joint line height using raTKA was 1.96mm [1.74 to 2.18] vs 4.00mm [3.68 to 4.32] with the conventional technique. Average change in posterior offset using raTKA was 0.08mm [-0.40 to 0.56] vs 1.64mm [2.47 to 0.81] with the conventional technique. Average absolute change in posterior offset with raTKA was 2.19mm [1.92 to 2.46] vs 4.24mm [3.79 to 4.69] with the conventional technique. There was a significant difference when comparing absolute change in joint line height and posterior offset between groups (p<0.01).
Conclusion
Robotic-assisted primary TKA restores the joint line height and posterior offset more accurately than conventional jig-based techniques.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery was initially developed to increase accuracy. The potential PSI benefits have expanded in the last decade, and other advantages have been published. However, different authors are critical of PSI and argue that the advantages are not such and do not compensate for the extra cost. This article aims to describe the recently published advantages and disadvantages of PSI. AREAS COVERED Narrative description of the latest publications related to PSI in accuracy, clinical and functional outcomes, operative time, efficiency, and other benefits. EXPERT COMMENTARY We have published high accuracy of the system, with a not clinically relevant loss of accuracy, significantly higher precision with PSI than with conventional instruments, and a high percentage of cases in the optimal range and similar to that obtained with computer-assisted navigation, greater imprecision for tibial slope, a significant blood loss reduction, and time consumption, an acceptable and non-significant increase in the cost per procedure and no difference in complications during hospital admission and at 90 days. We think that PSI will not follow the Scott Parabola and that it will continue to be a valuable type of device in some instances of TKA surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the application effects between personal specific instrumentation (PSI) and computer-assisted navigation surgery (CAS) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS The literature comparing the application effects of PSI and CAS in TKA in recent years was widely consulted, and the difference between PSI-TKA and CAS-TKA in operation time, lower limb alignment, blood loss, and knee function were compared. RESULTS Compared to CAS-TKA, PSI-TKA simplifies operation procedures and shortens operation time but probably has worse lower limb alignment. It is still controversial in comparison of perioperative blood loss and knee function between two techniques. CONCLUSION PSI-TKA and CAS-TKA both have advantages and disadvantages, and their differences need to be confirmed by further high-quality clinical trial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malalignment in total knee arthroplasty has been associated with poor implant longevity and clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy of accelerometer-based navigation in restoring the mechanical axis. METHODS 106 primary total knee arthroplasties performed during February 2016 to September 2017 at a tertiary care centre in India were enrolled in this observational study. We noted the intra-op tourniquet time. Two separate blinded observers measured the preoperative mechanical axis and the post operative radiological results (mechanical axis, coronal and sagittal alignment of femoral and tibial components) and the mean value was taken as final data. Interclass correlation was done to look for variability between the two observers. RESULTS The mean pre operative mechanical axis was 13.74 ± 10.44. The mean tourniquet time was 53.14 ± 7.42 min 91.5% (96/106) knees were within ±3° of neutral mechanical axis with a mean of 1.00° ± 2.68°. The femoral and tibial components with coronal alignment within ±3° perpendicular to the mechanical axis were 93.39% (99/106) and 89.62% (95/106) respectively. In the sagittal plane 89.62% of the femoral components and 87.73% of the tibial components were within ±3° perpendicular to the axis of tibia. CONCLUSION The Accelerometer based portable navigation system effectively reduces the coronal and sagittal alignment outliers in total knee arthroplasty and has no role in rotational alignment of components.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patient-specific instrument (PSI) may theoretically make total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) more accurate. Several studies have reported the outcomes of PSI TAA. The aim of this study is to systematically review the literature of PSI TAA. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were systematically reviewed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines for PSI TAA. The quality of the included studies was evaluated according to Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS). RESULT Nine articles were ultimately included in the systematic review. The implant position and function outcome of TAA was similar between PSI and SI. Prediction accuracy of implant size remained great difference. PSI can shorten the operative time and fluoroscopy time. The quality of current studies on PSI TAA is insufficient to produce high-level evidence. CONCLUSION PSI can get similar implant position and clinical outcome in TAA compared to SI, but current evidence is not strong enough to evaluate PSI TAA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Portable accelerometer-based navigation devices (PAD) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have been proposed to combine the alignment precision of computer navigation with the efficiency of conventional instrumentation (CON). The aim of this study was to determine if PAD was more effective than CON in TKA in improving clinical outcomes at medium term follow-up. METHODS Participants undergoing primary TKA were randomly assigned to either PAD or CON. The primary outcome was the mean between-group difference in the four subscales of the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (∆KOOS4 ) between preoperative status and latest follow-up. Secondary outcomes included analysis of between-group differences in all KOOS subscales, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (∆WOMAC) scores, complications and reoperation rates. RESULTS Of the 178 participants allocated to a treatment arm, 159 (89.3%) completed follow-up at a mean of 4.3 years (range 3.2-5.8 years). There was no statistically significant or clinically meaningful difference in ∆KOOS4 between preoperative status and latest follow-up (PAD = 41, CON = 43; p = 0.5). There was no difference in mean ∆WOMAC scores (PAD = 39, CON = 41; p = 0.9) or ∆KOOS subscales between groups. In addition, there were no differences in complications or reoperations between groups. CONCLUSIONS PAD was not superior to CON in improving patient-reported outcomes or reducing complications and reoperation rates at medium term follow-up. The use of PAD in TKA to improve clinical outcomes alone cannot be justified based on the results of this study.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of acetabular cup insertion during total hip arthroplasty (THA) in a supine position using an accelerometer-based portable navigation system. A single-surgeon study was conducted in which 62 prospective patients with navigation and 42 retrospective patients without navigation as historical controls were compared. The patients underwent THA via an anterolateral supine approach. The absolute values of errors of radiographic inclination and anteversion were calculated. The navigation error was also calculated. The factors that affected the absolute values of errors of cup alignment were determined. The mean absolute error of the postoperative CT measurement from the target angle for radiographic inclination was 3.8° in the navigation group and 6.6° in the control group (P < 0.001). The mean absolute error for anteversion was 3.3° in the navigation group and 5.9° in the control group (P < 0.001). The mean absolute values of navigation error were 3.7° ± 2.8° in inclination and 3.0° ± 2.6° in anteversion. Changes in the pelvic tilt angle among preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative were the significant risk factors for the absolute values of navigation error of anteversion relative to the anterior pelvic plane. Other factors affecting the absolute values of errors in the navigation group were not found for radiographic inclination and anteversion. The portable navigation system significantly improved the accuracy of cup inclination and anteversion. Changes in the pelvic tilt were the risk factors for the error of anteversion relative to the anterior pelvic plane.
