Advanced Certification for Total Hip and Total Knee Replacement

The advanced certification is awarded for United Regional’s effort in elevating the quality, consistency and safety of our services and patient care. Joint Commission experts evaluated compliance with advanced care standards and total hip and total knee replacement requirements, including orthopedic consultation, and pre-operative, intraoperative and post-surgical orthopedic surgeon follow-up care.
What this Certification Means for Our Patients
Patients can be confident that they will receive excellent care at every stage – beginning with the orthopedic physician consultation, through the pre-surgical, surgical, in-hospital care, and post-surgical follow-up care.

Understanding Knee Injuries
Most knee injuries can be categorized into three types:
- ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) injury
- MCL (Medial Collateral Ligament) injury
- Meniscus (cartilage) tears
These soft tissue injuries are often corrected by minimally-invasive surgical procedures and physical therapy programs. However, with a severe knee injury or chronic pain, a total knee replacement may be required.
Smarter Knee Surgery with KneeAlign: Better Alignment, Less Pain, Faster Healing
The advanced technologies of KneeAlign, a hand-held computer navigation unit that provides real-time navigation and alignment information, are utilized during knee surgeries. KneeAlign allows for more accurate alignment without insertion of a rod, making it less invasive and reducing blood loss. It works through sophisticated micro-sensors, deploying the same precision technology that keeps satellites and space stations in orbit and aircrafts straight and level.
KneeAlign can be used in both partial and total knee replacement surgeries.
Benefits of KneeAlign in partial and total knee replacements include:
- Surgeon has 100% control of KneeAlign technology throughout the surgery
- A knee that feels more natural
- Less pain
- Quicker recovery and rehabilitation
- Smaller incisions
- Shorter hospital stay
- No pre-operative Computed Tomography (CT) scan or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan required, eliminating unnecessary exposure to radiation
- No extra incisions for affixing bone
