Advancing the Future of Robotic Knee Replacement 🤖

Dr. Ronald Hudanich recently led a physician training session at the Mako Education Center in Ft.Lauderdale on the Stryker Mako Muscle-Sparing Approach using the Triathlon knee implant — a cutting-edge combination designed for precision, tissue preservation, and faster recovery.

This is only the second time this course has ever been taught nationwide, underscoring Dr. Hudanich’s expertise and commitment to advancing orthopedic innovation.

Using detailed 3D CT planning and the Mako robotic arm’s real-time feedback, the muscle-sparing approach allows surgeons to make highly precise bone cuts while protecting healthy tissue — helping patients achieve a more natural-feeling, stable knee replacement.

Robotic accuracy. Muscle preservation. Better outcomes. That’s the future of joint replacement.

😴 Does shoulder pain keep you up at night?
If you’re constantly shifting, stacking pillows, or waking up in pain — your shoulder is trying to tell you something.

Nighttime shoulder pain can be a sign of:

✅ Rotator cuff irritation or tear

✅ Bursitis or inflammation in the joint

✅ Arthritis or bone-on-bone friction

✅ Poor sleeping position or hidden mobility issues

The good news? You don’t have to live like this.
Our team at Greater Orlando Orthopedic Group breaks down the real reasons shoulder pain flares up at night — and what you can do to finally sleep comfortably again.

PRP vs. Cortisone Shots — Which Works Better for Knee Pain?

A new randomized clinical trial found that corticosteroid injections provided faster short-term pain relief than platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for patients with knee osteoarthritis.

💡 Key Takeaways from the Study:

At six weeks, patients who received corticosteroid injections reported significantly greater pain relief.

PRP did NOT outperform cortisone injections in early recovery.

By 3 months, both treatments showed similar levels of pain control.

Function and mobility improved in both groups, but no meaningful difference was found long-term.

👉 What this means for you:
If you're looking for quick pain relief, a corticosteroid injection may be the faster-acting option. PRP may still have value—but it may not deliver the immediate results many patients expect.

At Greater Orlando Orthopedic Group, our specialists help you choose the treatment that aligns with your goals, timeline, and activity level—whether that's quick relief or long-term joint preservation. Call Us (407) 977-4130.
