Topics & Speakers
Spinopelvic risk factors in total hip replacement: can robotics help?
Dr John Limbers - Orthopaedic Surgeon: Hip, Knee, Foot & Ankle, MAKO Surgery
Spinal stiffness is now recognised as a key risk factor for dislocation after surgery, prompting new pre-operative radiological views and functional planning approaches. One advance is Mako functional planning in hip replacement surgery. Dr Limbers will provide an overview of express and enhanced Mako robotic anterior total hip replacement, along with details of a current trial evaluating which technique delivers more accurate functional planning, and in turn, may reduce adverse outcomes linked to spinopelvic risk factors.
Robotic knee surgery: precision, personalisation and better patient outcomes
Dr Jobe Shatrov - Orthopaedic Surgeon: Hip, Knee, Foot & Ankle, MAKO Surgery
Dr Shatrov will explore how robotic-assisted knee replacement is transforming the management of knee arthritis, delivering greater accuracy, improved function, and higher patient satisfaction. Drawing on recent research, including data from local studies at the San, this session will highlight how innovations in robotics are transforming treatment options available for your patients.
Advances in shoulder arthroplasty: AI and robotics
Dr Marcus Chia - Orthopaedic Surgeon: Shoulder & Elbow Surgery
Dr Chia will discuss the rapid evolution of shoulder arthroplasty through artificial intelligence and robotic technology. This session will showcase the latest advances, their impact on surgical outcomes, and key considerations for GPs in referral, patient selection, and postoperative care.
