About
Dr. Bola Ajekigbe is a leading orthopaedic researcher whose work sits at the intersection of surgical robotics, biomechanics, and patient-centred outcomes. Her most-cited study, a randomised controlled trial comparing robotic-arm assisted total knee arthroplasty with manual techniques, has garnered 9 citations since its 2024 publication. This work is notable for its rigorous functional gait analysis, providing objective evidence that robotic assistance can improve post-operative walking patterns and joint kinematics. Dr. Ajekigbe’s research directly addresses the critical question of whether advanced technology translates into measurable functional benefits for patients, moving beyond traditional implant survival metrics. Her contributions are shaping how surgeons evaluate and adopt robotic systems in joint replacement, with implications for rehabilitation protocols and long-term mobility. By combining clinical trial methodology with biomechanical assessment, she bridges engineering and medicine, offering a model for evidence-based innovation in orthopaedics. Her findings are already informing surgical decision-making and have the potential to reduce revision rates and enhance quality of life for thousands of patients undergoing knee arthroplasty.
