Gateway Regional Medical Center news continues: Recent acquisition of Da Vinci 5 surgical system
Gateway Regional Medical Center in Granite City recently acquired a Da Vinci 5 surgical system, Intuitive’s next generation multiport robotic platform.
The official announcement noted that Da Vinci 5 is Intuitive’s “most advanced surgical system. Designed to transform surgery to enable better outcomes, efficiency and insights, and, as a result, help lower the total cost of care.”
Da Vinci 5 comes from more than a decade of research and development, and is built upon the clinical and operational value of more than 14 million procedures that have been performed using various generations of Da Vinci technology.
Da Vinci 5 brings significant technological advances to help improve patient outcomes. It is designed to allow surgeons to feel more and see more. Da Vinci 5 benefits from Intuitive’s well-established attention to surgeon comfort. The system features a redesigned console with extended adjustments, allowing surgeons to find their best fit for surgical viewing and comfort. The surgeon can make any necessary adjustments while their head is in the console. In addition, the Da Vinci 5 console allows surgeons to adjust settings for a completely upright position, with options designed to fit different body types.
Da Vinci 5 is equipped with Intuitive’s highest resolution and most realistic 3D imaging system, enabling surgeons to see more today and supporting future generations of technologies as they evolve.
This is an advancement that will enhance the landscape of Gateway Regional Medical Center’s surgical care and patient outcomes. The integration of this technology underscores its commitment to providing the highest standard of care to patients. The Da Vinci 5 represents “the pinnacle of innovation,” allowing Gateway Regional’s skilled surgeons to perform procedures with unparalleled precision, dexterity and control.
“We anticipate that this program will enhance the quality of care, reduce the recovery times for our patients, minimize complications and ultimately improve the overall well-being of those we serve in our community,” noted the official announcement further.
