Da Vinci Surgical System

Overview

• The Da Vinci Surgical System is the most advanced platform for minimally invasive surgery today.
• Integrates:
  • High-resolution 3D vision
  • Wristed instruments
  • Intuitive motion control

Key Components

1. Surgeon's Console

   • Ergonomic design for ease of use.
   • Provides a clear 3D image of the surgical field.

2. Patient-side Cart

   • Equipped with four interactive robotic arms.

3. High-definition 3D Vision System

   • Offers enhanced visualization during surgery.

Functionality

• The system scales, filters, and translates the surgeon's hand movements from the console to the robotic arms on the patient cart.
• Micro-movements of instruments are precisely controlled by dedicated computer processors.
• Processors perform millions of safety checks throughout the procedure, enhancing surgical precision and control.

Instrument Design

• Da Vinci Endo Wrist Instruments
  • Unique wristed architecture providing seven degrees of freedom.
  • Allows for a greater range of motion than human wrist, enabling maneuvers impossible with standard laparoscopic tools.

Safety Measures

• All surgical maneuvers are under direct control of the surgeon.
• Redundant safety checks prevent autonomous movement of instruments or robotic arms.

Benefits

• The Da Vinci Surgical System enhances surgical capabilities for complex procedures.
• Streamlined surgical experience benefits:
  • Hospitals
  • Surgeons
  • OR teams
  • Patients
