About
Dr. Brett Fritsch is a leading orthopaedic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on the transformative potential of robotic-assisted arthroplasty, particularly for total and unicompartmental knee replacements. His major contributions lie in rigorously evaluating the clinical and economic viability of these emerging technologies. Dr. Fritsch has authored seminal systematic reviews and meta-analyses, including a highly cited 2018 study (89 citations) demonstrating the effectiveness of robotic hip and knee surgery on patient-reported outcomes. He has also provided critical comparative analyses of different robotic platforms, such as the MAKO and OMNIbot systems, examining their impact on component positioning and limb alignment. Beyond clinical outcomes, Dr. Fritsch has been a pioneer in assessing the real-world implementation of these technologies, notably through a 2021 cost analysis (26 citations) that explored the feasibility of introducing robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty into public health systems. His work, which includes comprehensive reviews of evolving technologies and state-of-the-art perspectives, has garnered over 250 citations, establishing him as a key voice in the evidence-based adoption of robotics in orthopaedic surgery.
