Diagnosis
- Your testing will include a medical evaluation, blood samples, electrocardiogram, stress test,X ray of the hip joint, chest X-ray and urine sample. The tests will tell us if your body is ready for surgery or if you have any conditions that may need special attention before moving forward.

Risks & Complications
Like in any normal surgeries ,the active robotic-assisted system has increased risks of nerve damage and infection as well as increasing blood loss and surgical time during both knee and hip replacement surgeries.
