Join Dr Arash Taheri – In this podcast he discusses holistic management of osteoarthritis and how General Practitioners can help patient’s manage their pain.
Fact – Osteoarthritis affects more than two million people in Australia, often leading to chronic pain. While there have been advances in treating the condition – including robotic assisted surgery – there’s a number of ways a General Practitioner can help manage a patient’s pain holistically too.

Is Robotic Arm Assisted Total Hip Arthroplasty More Bone Preserving than Conventional Hip Replacements and Hip Resurfacing?
Scientific Research Publishing – Open Journal of Orthopaedics
2022, 12, 259-267.
Authors – Rajitha Gunaratne, Ben Levy, Harry D’Souza and Arash Taheri.
Purpose:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the single ream, robotic arm-assisted (RAA) Total Hip Replacement can preserve a greater volume of bone stock compared to conventional hip replacement and resurfacing.
Findings:
RAA Total Hip Replacement leads to significant preservation of the acetabulum compared to conventional techniques. This outcome is a reflection of the increased precision of the planning and execution of the RAA acetabular reaming process.
This is a significant finding, especially considering the increasing number of younger patients receiving hip replacements, as they are more likely to require revision surgery.
