Next-generation Robotic Surgical platform brings Force Feedback technology, and advanced 3D visualisation
Max Healthcare and Surgical Intuitive have announced the introduction of India’s first da Vinci 5 robotic-assisted surgical systems at Max Super Speciality Hospital, Saket, New Delhi, and Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital, Mumbai.
This milestone marks a significant advancement in bringing next-generation robotic-assisted surgical technology to the country. The introduction of da Vinci 5 further strengthens Max Healthcare’s capabilities in minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgery.
The advanced platform combines Force Feedback technology, enhanced 3D visualisation better ergonomics, guided instrument insertion, improved cautery with smoke evacuation and significantly greater computing power, designed to give surgeons with greater control, precision and awareness during complex surgical procedures. It has unique feature of tele proctoring and mentoring which will avoid Procter to travel different centres for training.
The first procedures using the new platform were performed at Max Super Speciality Hospital, Saket, New Delhi, and Nanavati-Max Super Speciality Hospital, Mumbai, across multiple specialties, including urology, gynaecology and gastrointestinal surgery.
One of the key advancements of the da Vinci 5 platform is its Force Feedback technology, which enables surgeons to sense the push and pull forces exerted on tissue through the console hand controls. The da Vinci 5 system also features Intuitive’s most advanced 3D visualisation technology to date, an ergonomic and immersive surgeon console, and 10,000 times the computing power of previous-generation systems.
