OR1
Suites with Dr. Patrick Horan
and Dr. Alfredo Fernandez |
Joint replacement surgery is one where significant strides in
materials and techniques have improved outcomes and reduced
costs for patients needing surgery. Depending on the patient's
age, activity level and general health, the orthopedic surgeons
choose the most appropriate artificial joint component to improve
the quality of life for the patient.
At Town & Country Hospital, the surgeon
along with the operating room team work in state-of-the-art
surgical suites with the latest technology. The OR1 units
by Karl Storz Endoscopy will integrate virtually every operating
room component into a single optimized system for endoscopic
surgery. This is advanced surgery equipment that will allow
the surgeon to network to bring all information such as medical
records, x-rays, MRI images, and other vital information that
may be needed during an operation.
