Professor from State Certifying Hospital Visits Dr. Abhinandan Punit for Advanced Hip Replacement Observation

Dr. Abhinandan Punit recently hosted Dr. Dayanand, Professor of Orthopedics at State Certifying Hospital, Iqbal Nagar, for a specialised surgical observership focused on Direct Anterior Hip Replacement.

As part of his visit, Dr. Dayanand observed:

1. 1. 1. Direct Anterior Hip Replacement Technique
         He spent dedicated time in the operating theatre watching Dr. Abhinandan perform the Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) — a minimally invasive, muscle-sparing technique known for faster recovery, reduced pain, and quicker rehabilitation for patients undergoing total hip replacement.
      2. Robotic-Assisted Hip Replacement
         The observership also included an in-depth look at robotic hip replacement using the CUVIS Joint Robotic System. Dr. Dayanand observed:
         • Pre-operative robotic planning
         • Execution workflow
         • Precision bone cuts
         • Implant positioning
         • Real-time intraoperative adjustments for enhanced accuracyA photograph from the OR shows Dr. Abhinandan and Dr. Dayanand alongside the advanced robotic system, highlighting the collaborative session.
      3. Pre-Surgery & Robotic Planning Demonstrations
         The visit included live demonstrations of both:
         • Robotic surgical planning modules
         • Hip replacement templating workflow
         • Digital alignment checks
         • Safety protocols followed during robotic-assisted procedures

         These sessions provided a comprehensive overview of how evidence-based planning, combined with robotic precision, enhanced joint-replacement outcomes.

A Step Toward Sharing Knowledge Nationally

Dr. Abhinandan has also captured images and videos from the sessions, including:

• OR photographs with the robotic system
• Hip replacement visuals
• Planning screenshots

These will be published periodically as part of his mission to make advanced joint-replacement education accessible across India.

The visit by a senior professor like Dr. Dayanand reflects growing national interest in Direct Anterior Approach Hip Replacement and Robotic Arthroplasty—areas where Dr. Abhinandan continues to train, collaborate, and contribute to advancing orthopedic excellence.
