Success by the numbers

Dr. Borchard’s 2020 patient outcomes were compared to a baseline standard developed by Stryker Orthopaedics. The baseline average consisted of 650,000 elective knee and hip surgeries in over 200 hospitals and 20,000 Mako cases across the country. Dr. Borchard and his team’s outpatient/length of stay (LOS) significantly decreased in 2020. Most patients did not want to stay longer than necessary in the hospital, especially with COVID-19. CAO’s average LOS was 33.42 hours versus Stryker’s benchmark average of 41.79 hours, a decrease of 8.37 hours, or 20.03% less time spent in the hospital. One-hundred percent of Dr. Borchard’s patients were discharged to home versus the 94% benchmark average; furthermore, none of his patients were readmitted to the hospital after surgery, which was measured at 30-days and 90-days post-operation. Compare this to Stryker’s benchmark average of 30-day readmission average of 1.74% and a 90-day readmission average of 2.72%.

North-east hospital patients to benefit from new surgical robots

North-east hospital patients to benefit from new surgical robots NHS Grampian has unveiled three new surgical robots as part of a £3.5 million investment in improving patient care and reducing waiting times in the region.   Medics in the north-east were the first at a board in Scotland to have a robotic-assisted surgical system in 2015, and since then have seen improved and shorter recovery times for those who are operated on using them. The latest cutting-edge surgical technology, two new da Vinci Xi robots, and a Mako Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery System for orthopaedic joint replacement surgery, comes as NHS Grampian moves to increase capacity, as it looks to emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic to treat more patients more quickly.
