About

Dr. Omar Zakieh is a leading orthopedic researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical outcomes in joint arthroplasty, with a particular focus on reducing perioperative complications. His most cited study, "Blood loss and transfusion risk in robotic‐assisted knee arthroplasty: A retrospective analysis" (2021, 38 citations), provides critical evidence demonstrating that robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) significantly lower total blood loss and transfusion risk compared to conventional jig-based techniques. This contribution has helped shape modern surgical protocols, offering patients safer, less invasive alternatives. Dr. Zakieh’s research addresses a key clinical challenge—minimizing blood loss—while highlighting the tangible benefits of robotic assistance in orthopedic surgery. His work is widely referenced by surgeons and researchers seeking to optimize patient recovery and reduce hospital resource utilization. Through rigorous retrospective analyses, Dr. Zakieh continues to inform evidence-based practice, making him a notable voice in the evolution of minimally invasive joint replacement.
