Our customized service and individualized treatment are designed to cover pre- and post-surgery treatment programs, in effect until the patient fully recovers. We offer complete patient care provided by a multidisciplinary team, who also teach patients about their own recovery.
- Before surgery, doctors plan for the joint exchange using computer technology to create patient-specific scenarios (using a digital template or patient-customized instrument) together with nurses, anesthesiologists, nutritionists, and others to provide close supervision in preparing the patient for surgery.
- After surgery, we provide a specialized ward for patient care. Nurses, physicians, anesthesiologists, and rehabilitation therapists visit the patient and design a rehabilitation plan aiming for a quick return to normal life. We utilize Alter G during rehabilitation, preventing blocked veins by both drug and non-drug treatments. Patient care services such as for osteoporosis are also covered.
Total Joint Care begins during the early stages of the disease using technologies such as non-surgical treatment, muscle rehabilitation, and adjustment of walking balance by Alter G, including injections for osteoarthritis treatment, surgery for the restoration of joint mechanisms, laparoscopic surgery or joint replacement surgery, and treatment for patients who have had surgery changing a joint but for whom problems persist.
