New Approach to Healing New Joints

[KSTP TV, February 08, 2011] Getting older isn't easy, but Abbott Northwestern Hospital is helping people get new hips and knees like never before.

It's an amazing process at Abbott's Joint Replacement Center. Patients are in surgery one day. Two maybe three days later, they're leaving the hospital to go back home.

Doctors there perform about a thousand knee and hip replacements every year, but it's the whole process that's getting all the attention.
