Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre Unveils Robotic-Assisted Surgical Technology in Chennai
In a significant advancement for medical care in Chennai, Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre has officially launched state-of-the-art robotic-assisted technology designed for complex surgical procedures. This innovative system aims to revolutionize how surgeons approach intricate operations, offering enhanced precision and control. The inauguration ceremony was graced by V R Venkatachalam, the esteemed chancellor of Sri Ramachandra Institute of Higher Education and Research (SRIHER), who highlighted the importance of integrating cutting-edge technology into healthcare to improve patient outcomes and surgical efficiency.
Details of the Intuitive da Vinci Advanced Robotic Surgical System
The hospital has installed the Intuitive da Vinci advanced robotic surgical system, a groundbreaking platform that empowers surgeons to perform highly precise procedures with minimal invasiveness. This system comprises several key components that work in harmony to facilitate superior surgical performance:
- Surgeon Console: This is the control center where the surgeon sits and operates the robotic arms using hand and foot controls, providing a comfortable and ergonomic environment for extended procedures.
- Patient-Side Cart: Equipped with 3 to 4 robotic arms, this cart is positioned near the patient during surgery. The arms mimic the surgeon's movements with enhanced dexterity, allowing for delicate manipulations in tight spaces.
- 3D High-Definition Vision System: This component offers a magnified, three-dimensional view of the surgical site, giving surgeons unparalleled clarity and depth perception, which is crucial for accuracy in complex operations.
The integration of this robotic system is expected to reduce recovery times, minimize surgical complications, and expand the range of procedures that can be performed with robotic assistance. It represents a major step forward in Chennai's healthcare landscape, positioning Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre as a leader in adopting innovative medical technologies. The launch underscores the hospital's commitment to advancing surgical care and providing patients with access to the latest in medical science.
