JOINT REPLACEMENT SURGERY

The medical term for replacing a joint is arthroplasty. During the procedure, your healthcare provider replaces a damaged joint with an artificial joint. The artificial joint can be created using metal, ceramic, or sturdy plastic (prosthesis). The new joint looks the same as the natural joint and functions similarly. Any joint in your body can be replaced by a surgeon, but the two most common arthroplasty procedures are hip replacement and knee replacement. The majority of patients who undergo this procedure need a full joint replacement. Partial joint replacements are not a good choice for many people. During this procedure, the joint is only replaced in the damaged area. Recovery time following an arthroplasty can vary. Age, lifestyle, procedure type, and the joint you had replaced all have an impact on this. You'll receive assistance from your doctor as you get ready for the procedure. They might suggest that you engage in physical therapy, exercises, or follow a diet in the weeks leading up to surgery. Your physical readiness for the procedure can be ensured by these measures. Before having an arthroplasty, you might need to have a number of tests, such as blood work, an electrocardiogram, and a chest X-ray, to evaluate your general health. Depending on your medical history, you might require a pre-operative evaluation with your primary care doctor or another specialist.A CT or MRI is required for surgical planning during some procedures. Your medical history and any current medications should be disclosed to your doctor. You might need to stop taking some medications before surgery (like blood thinners). Your healthcare provider will tell you what time to stop eating and drinking the night before your procedure. Either an outpatient surgery center or a hospital may perform your procedure. Your surgeon will use a different technique depending on the type of surgery and the joint you need replacing. Just before the procedure, anesthesia will be administered to you. You can be certain that the arthroplasty won't hurt by doing this. After making incisions, your surgeon removes the damaged joint (cuts). Then it is changed with a synthetic joint. Staples, stitches, or surgical glue are used to close the incisions. Your doctor wraps the joint in bandages. You might also need a brace or sling. Surgeons can perform some joint replacement procedures with minimally invasive techniques. These techniques require fewer incisions and more specialized tools. Sometimes less recovery time is needed after minimally invasive procedures than after traditional ones. The best course of action will be suggested to you by your surgeon. You can move pain-free and with more freedom after having surgery to replace a joint. Many people who have had joint replacements are able to engage in the activities they once cherished. These procedures make it possible for people to live active lifestyles, greatly improving their general health and quality of life.
