Advantages of using the da Vinci® robot compared to traditional surgery

The system is a state-of-the-art technology designed by Intuitive Surgical, an American corporation that develops robotics designed to improve clinical outcomes. When we use the da Vinci® system, our patients benefit from:

术后疼痛减轻
切口更小，疤痕更少
Less risk of complications, including infection and blood loss
缩短住院时间
Quicker recoveries
同样好的或更好的操作成功

How it Works

First, the surgeon makes tiny incisions in the body and then inserts miniaturized instruments and a high-definition three-dimensional camera. Then, the surgeon operates using a nearby console to manipulate the instruments. Like a video game that translates the player's movements into real-time movement on the screen, the da Vinci® robotic surgery system responds to the physician's input. 该系统包括以下设备, designed to make the robotic surgery as precise as possible:

Patient cart with four interactive robotic arms: The robotic arms include surgical instruments and a high-definition camera. Your surgeon will place the instruments and camera inside the surgery site in order to operate.
Surgeon's console: This is where your surgeon sits to direct the surgery. It is in the same room that you are in, a few feet away from the operating table. Inside the console is a screen that provides enhanced, real-time 3-D images of the operating site. 坐在控制台前, your surgeon can position their eyes and hands in alignment with the robotic system’s camera and instruments to operate with extreme precision. This allows your surgeon to see the operating field even better than if they were standing over you. Your physician is 100 percent in control of the robotic surgical system the entire time.
手腕内器械:在手术过程中, your surgeon directs dime-sized instruments to perform the surgery. The instruments inside your body respond precisely to your surgeon's movements inside the console.

It's important to understand that the system allows the surgeon to make precise, 控制机器时动作细腻. The robot is not making decisions or performing incisions. 相反，外科医生会告诉机器人该做什么. The robot allows for greater precision than the human hand on its own.

规划与恢复

If you need surgery, experts will discuss your best options with you. Not everyone is a good candidate for robotic surgery using the da Vinci® system. Your care team will recommend treatment options that work best for you based on your condition and medical history. 如果你适合做达芬奇手术, we'll give you specific instructions for preparing for your surgery, including:

确认保险范围
What to wear
What to bring
如何提前准备.g., food, medications, preoperative physical therapy, etc.)

每个人都是不同的, and your recovery will vary based on the type of surgery being performed with the da Vinci® system. In general, you can expect a shorter hospital stay and faster recovery than if you were undergoing traditional surgery. 了解手术后会发生什么, consider asking your surgeon the following questions:
