Une unité permettant les chirurgies de remplacement de la hanche et du genou a été ouverte dans un hopital près de Fredericton. Puisque 368 nouveaux patients pourront normalement bénéficier d’une opération chaque année, nous devrions observer une hausse d’interventions orthopédiques dans la province.
A unit allowing hip and knee replacement surgeries was opened in a hospital near Fredericton. Since 368 new patients will normally benefit from an operation each year, we will see an increase in orthopedic interventions in the province.
“Following the successful launch of knee replacement surgeries, the surgical team at Horizon’s Upper River Valley Hospital (URVH) is now improving access for orthopedic surgery patients who have been waiting for a new hip.
Total hip replacement surgeries are now being performed by Horizon surgeons and staff at URVH, who will see their first three patients today.
Expanding joint replacement surgery at this facility to include total hip replacements will help serve up to an additional 368 patients a year for a hip or a knee replacement surgery from the Fredericton and Upper River Valley areas, reduce wait times, and improve the patient experience”

Nous considérons cette promesse comme étant en voie d’être réalisée puisque le réseau de santé Horizon a effectivement des plans prévus pour l’augmention de la capacité de chirurgies orthopédiques dans divers hôpitaux de la province. La construction de ces nouvelles unités est prévue au plus tôt pour le printemps 2023.
The Horizon Health Network does have plans to increase orthopedic surgery capacity at various hospitals across the province. The earliest that these new units will be built is the spring of 2023.
