What is Total Joint Replacement?
Total joint replacement is a proven technique for the relief of pain and disability. It is a surgical procedure that removes the damaged cartilage and bone of the patient and replaces the damaged joint with a prosthetic one. It is usually performed on patients that experience severe discomfort on a daily basis due to an underlying condition.
When is Total Joint Replacement necessary?
There are many different conditions that can contribute to life altering joint pain. Some common contributing conditions include arthritis and osteoarthritis. Depending on the severity of the condition, joint replacement surgery may be necessary to improve the patient’s quality of life. Your doctor will be able to best determine if you qualify for outpatient joint replacement surgery.
