Discover the da Vinci Surgical System at Houston Healthcare
What is the da Vinci Surgical System?
Experience precision and control with the da Vinci robotic surgical system.
This advanced technology provides surgeons with high-definition imaging,
magnified and enhanced for unmatched accuracy and control. Seated at an
adjustable console, surgeons control four robotic arms with a full range
of motion, navigating behind and around tissues and nerves.
How does it work?
The da Vinci surgical system equips your surgeon with a sophisticated set
of tools for conducting robotic-assisted, minimally invasive procedures.
The term “robotic” often misleads people. Robots don’t
perform surgery. Instead, your surgeon utilizes the da Vinci instruments
guided through a console.
The da Vinci system seamlessly translates your surgeon's hand movements
at the console in real time, facilitating the bending and rotation of
instruments during the procedure. These instruments, with a design mirroring
the human hand but offering an extended range of motion, contribute to
precise maneuvers. The da Vinci vision system enhances the experience
by providing highly magnified, 3D high-definition views of the surgical area.
How can the da Vinci Surgical System help me?
In comparison to what is known as 'open surgery,' Da Vinci Surgery offers
a less invasive technique. The incisions made by your surgeon in Da Vinci
Surgery are much smaller than those in open surgery, thus categorizing
it as a form of "minimally invasive surgery." Studies on Da
Vinci Surgery have highlighted several benefits when contrasted with open surgery:
Less pain during recovery
Minimal blood loss
Fewer complications
Lower risk of infection
Reduced scarring
Shorter hospital stay
Faster return to normal activities
Fewer hospital readmissions
