However, as with any major surgery, there are certain things you need to do to prepare for robotic knee replacement surgery.

Now is not the time to start a new diet but eating healthy foods will help your body heal after surgery. Make sure to eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, and lean protein in the weeks leading up to your procedure.
4. Talk to your doctor about medications. Some medications can thin your blood and increase the risk of bleeding during or after surgery. Be sure to talk to your doctor about any prescription or over-the-counter medications you’re taking before your procedure date.
