Vishakhapatnam: The Vattikuti Foundation, Vattikuti Technologies and Intuitive Surgical Inc. have instituted a ‘roving robot’ project in which the surgical robot is being taken around the country for the benefit of surgeons, hospital managements and local physicians.
The roving robot will help surgeons experience the capabilities of a da Vinci surgical robot in removing cancerous tissue while retaining healthy tissue, says Gopal Chakravarthy, CEO, Vattikuti Technologies, which distributes the robot created by US-based Intuitive Surgical Inc.
The da Vinci robot performs surgery on a patient with minimal interference from the surgeon. The patient doesn’t have to suffer the trauma of traditional open surgery.It means negligible blood loss, less pain, quick recovery and shorter hospital stay.
The roving robot will tour four cities in Andhra Pradesh. It will be showcased in Visakhapatnam(Care Hospital on Aug.18; Apollo Hospital Health City, Arilova, Aug.19; Pinnacle Hospital Health City, Arilova Aug.21-22), in Rajahmundry (GSL Medical College, Aug 26), Vijayawada (Prashanth Hospital Aug 28, Aayush Hospital Aug 29 and Ramesh Hospital Aug 30) and in Tirupati (SVIMS Sept.2-3).
