As a 45 year old girl who has got to have a double hip replacement I am excited because I know and will have so much more confidence in my surgery now. Thank you for explaining everything x
Lisa, last year I had my right hip replaced. For me , a positive attitude both before and after surgery was most important. I am grateful all that pain is gone. Good Luck!
I just had my hip replacement done on Thursday and it was the best thing I could have did and we did it robotically now I'm going to PT I can't wait to put my high heels back on🤗
Was you in a lot of pain? I having one done April 24. People are scaring me saying it’s so painful 😣. I need it done badly. Any answer be appreciated. Thank you 😊
Thanks for a really informative and interesting video. I had mine done on Friday (there's no way of telling for sure if it was a Mako procedure as I'm part of the RACER trial, which is meant to be random (ahem),but from all the pre-op background chatter around what I'd call anchoring points, plus I'm pretty sure in Hexham, where I am, they're keen to roll it out, I think I may have had that. I had my first one seven years ago, without Mako of course and remember the sedation lifting enough for me to be aware of hammering, but I hadn't realised just how much until I saw this. I had a lot more immediate post-op pain this time than last (no idea if that has anything to do with the extra Mako incisions/fixing points), but it has settled well. After a few weeks recovery and really sticking to the physio plan, I'd say it was life transforming, enabling me to walk my greyhounds again for long distances, which I had to stop each time when I had the onset of symptoms and the dreaded 'gait'! So, although not on my patch, thank you for all the great work you do and for embracing new developments and sharing by making these videos. You also happen to have a very pleasant and reassuring delivery and I felt I would be in safe hands. All the best and I salute you sir.

I'm 46 years old Hemophilic person and my doctor recommend me to do a THR. Do you recommend THR or hip resurfacing for persons with bleeding disorders ?
My Doctor is suspecting my daughter to have poor acetebulum deferment hence no hip ray done and my daughter is only 1 year 6months. Now the question is will she go under surgery at her age? Am very scared right now because she's too Young. And I don't trust hospitals here in Zambia maybe a big private hospital
I'm 60 years old, and having a hip replacement in 9 days, will it be a 3 month recovery,?? Because I need the other hip replaced. And hope to be in fully working order by the middle of 2023.
Hi i must go for hip replacement surgery I am living in south Africa but here's no hospital that I trust do do my hip replacement surgery because I am so very scared that I would loose my legs.
What I noticed the most is the lack of sterilization in the operating room .. people standing around without gloves or gowns .. and where is the anesthesiologist monitoring the patient??
Hi Kerri 🙋🏼♀️ In the operating room they use something called a Lumineers airflow system, this is just a fancy way of saying specialized airflow… think of it like a curtain of fresh clean air surrounding the operating room table. Also that air that is creating that curtain of fresh air is filtered by specialized heap filters and tested very regularly, it also has alert systems that tell us if the air quality is not up to standards of proper procedures set by ARON. Therefore the “sterile zone” of the operating room is around 4-6 feet surrounding the bed. In this video the people within the sterile zone have the proper PPE. With this being said the people standing outside of the sterile zone and will NOT be touching anything within the sterile field don’t have to wear sterile gloves or the standard operating room gown… they however are NOT allowed to wear street clothing (they must change into specially laundered scrubs) and they MUST wear a level II mask (specifically approved operating room masks) to be in the operating room. The anesthesia provider is safely at the head of the bed and the reason you can’t see them is because whoever made this video is protecting the patients identity by using the visual illustrations in the bottoms right hand side of the video to conceal them at all times. All in all I didn’t see anything concerning when watching this video in the light of sterile techniques. Hope this helps!
I need hip replacement on both hips and to be honest after watching this video I kind of wish I didn't. The surgery looks frightening almost barbaric. I did not expect cutting and the drilling in such a manner. How I wish I didn't have to have surgery.
Did you decide to have the surgery? I’m holding off as I try to stretch, ice and massage the area. There are a lot of good TH-cam videos utilizing exercise and massage. Obviously don’t do any that causes pain. I’m retiring early this year. Work exasperates it but it feels good over the weekend while not working. I wish you all the best.
Yes they put you out for several reasons one of which is they then bring in Sales Reps / Vendors, Students, Observers, etc and they do not want patients to know what really goes on and how their Privacy is violated
He’s a technical rep on hand to answer any Q’s about the robotics or address any technical issues. He has plenty of reason to be there and the ortho surgeon would have it no other way.
@@stevetourigny3849 He is a SALESMAN. And IF. Salesman is going to be in the OR, they have no business in the OR until the patient is prepped and draped. Patients should be informed well ahead of time.
Patients have the right to know. Patients that I have talked with regarding this issue are appalled. Patients have a right to Privacy and Dignity in the OR. I am in the process as we speak of reporting Salesman in the OR that acted inappropriately in the OR due only to the fact that it was the patient's request that no Salesmen be in the OR. It's a Dirty Little Secret that's not told to patients. And if a Surgeon has questions, that's NOT the Surgeon I would want. It's all about the $$$.
The MPS (Mako Product Specialist) works the machine and is specifically not a sales rep. They are an essential part of the team and highly trained. In the UK, only medical staff can scrub up and be involved in the case. I know this isn't the case in other countries. Also every person in this video has given written consent to be in it and the patient has consented to each individual being in it (including company staff). This is our hospital policy.
Just had this done 5 weeks ago in Jacksonville, Fl. and am living the life in 4 weeks. Amazing and thank you.

How did your hips come to be this way?
for example, When I was born my hips were messed up.. as i grew with hip dysplasia development. 😞
Appreciate the update
🇺🇸
Had my left hip replaced 15 hrs ago. I am truly amazed
Outstanding information ,,thank you

It's a great operation, best of luck. I'm sure you will be happy. Work hard with your physiotherapy, it's important.

Did they put u out good.?
Did they knock u out completely?

It can be either a spinal (Local) or a general. We normally recommend a spinal block with sedation so you sleep through the procedure.
How long does a total hip replacement take?
@@jimmorrison3830 45 minutes on average. you are typically awake around an hour after you go under
Do they do a spinal after you are asleep lol. I’m having one 6/26

Is the incision along the muscle fibers with minimal to no damage to muscle, tendons and ligaments?

After hip replacement will i be able to play cricket professionally

How are you doing? And the pain level? I getting one done April 24. Hope your doing well 😊
Hi im ok now i have both hips replaced now, and the are working well.
@@CarlsVlogs That’s great! Thank you 😊
What is the best brand and material for hip implants?
Serf

You do see the anesthesia providers hand at 6:32 in the video as the adjust the flow of that saline
@kerri_kristina_z
It is the reality, I have been in that room and on that table.
Is this done under a local or general ?
Usually a spinal anaesthetic (local) or it can be a general. This depends on the patient choice and Anaesthetic advice.
Do u feel anythin if ur not put to sleep im waitin for hip operation
How long does the surgery last?
I'm going thru the process. The Dr I have did videos and with robotic assistant it takes under an hour in most cases.
2 yrs as a doctor. 5 yrs a mechanical fitter.
why wasn't the others wearing gloves?
Generally they will wear gloves when in contact with the patient, for example when doing the patient
Avrò un il 2ndo intervento di coxartrosi e sostituzione d'anca destra fra pochi giorni.
