What Is Robotic Surgery?
Stamford Health utilizes advanced technology in minimally invasive procedures to improve the patient experience and recovery. Our medical team goes through extensive training for the robotic devices used in their subspecialties so that patients can feel safe and comfortable throughout their surgery experience.
- Robotic surgery is often used in a variety of surgical subspecialties including urology, gynecology, thoracic, general, bariatric, orthopedic/spine, and oncology.
- With robotic device cameras, surgeons are able to see the area more clearly for a higher level of accuracy, precision, and control.
- Patients regularly experience less blood loss, fewer complications, smaller scars, and a quicker recovery time.
Types Of Robotic Devices We Use
Stamford Health is committed to offering patients the most advanced technology including the following robotic surgery systems.
DA VINCI SYSTEM
Da Vinci has demonstrated positive outcomes across many surgical procedures and specialties, including gynecological, urological, and thoracic surgeries. The system’s robotic arms, which have greater flexibility and rotation, are controlled by the surgeon who guides them while viewing the camera’s feedback.GLOBUS
Used in spinal surgery, this device allows for smaller incisions along the spine versus cutting through the muscles surrounding it. Directed by the surgeon, the arms perform the surgery along a planned pathway for control and accuracy.MAKO SYSTEM
For orthopedic surgeries such as knee, joint, and hip replacement, the system requires detailed scans and information prior to surgery so that the surgeons can achieve accurate placement and fewer complications.A Closer Look At Robotic Surgery
