Achieving discharge within 24 hours of robotic unicompartmental knee arthroplasty may be possible with appropriate patient selection and a multi-disciplinary team approach

ConclusionThis initial feasibility study suggests that patients may be safely discharged within 24 hours of UKR using the NAVIO robotic system. Appropriate patient selection will ensure successful discharge. Further prospective studies are needed.
