Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the metal ion concentrations in the patients blood following robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) compared to conventional total knee arthroplasty using cutting guides.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study focuses on comparing metal ion levels in 50 inpatient participants undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with either conventional cutting guides or robotic assistance. Baseline blood examinations for Cobalt, Chromium, Titanium, and Nickel will be performed before TKA implantation at preoperative visits and on the first day following the procedure. The investigation will encompass patients receiving both conventional and robotic-assisted primary TKA, framed within a prospective cohort study design. Baseline characteristics and additional follow-up information will be gathered.
