Infy's Robotic Hospital Completes 100 Surgeries

The Institute of Robotic Surgery in Bengaluru, using the Da Vinci Robotic Surgical System, has successfully completed over 100 robotic surgeries in just five months, reports the Business Standard quoting ANI. 

Launched in partnership with the lnfosys Foundation at Narayana Health City, the institute has been using the Da Vinci surgical system to conduct complex surgeries using a minimal invasive approach. Surgeons operate through a few small incisions. The system features magnified 3D high-definition vision system and tiny wristed instruments that bend and rotate far greater than the human hand. As a result, surgeons operate with enhanced vision, precision and control.

The Infosys Foundation intends to encourage and enable rapid adoption of robotics in healthcare, and provide access to affordable, minimally invasive surgeries to a large number of people of the country.

"We want more number of patients to have the advantage of the advanced surgical and medical care available at our hospital. We believe that it's a matter of time before most of the procedures on the human body will be done using robotic technology. The Da Vinci surgical system has helped us to provide the best possible surgical outcomes and the completion of more than 100 successful surgeries is a proof of our commitment to provide the latest and the best quality treatment," said Dr. Devi Shetty, Chairman of Narayana Health.
