🚨 Big news as Intuitive Surgical seeks FDA clearance for its next-gen da Vinci 5 multiport surgical robot! 🦾They have submitted for FDA 510(k) clearance looking for a potential 2024 launch. The da Vinci 5 is set to become part of Intuitive's current lineup of da Vinci robotic surgical systems, which includes the multiport X and Xi systems, as well as the single-port SP. Additionally, Intuitive offers Ion, a robotic-assisted platform designed for minimally invasive lung biopsies.CEO Gary Guthart said: "We are submitted and in the back-and-forth with the FDA. It is our hope for a 2024 launch, but they are ultimately the arbiters of when we get clearance"They have also initiated discussions with regulators in Japan and South Korea, indicating a global perspective.CFO Jamie Samath shared some plans as to how they plan to gear up manufacturing for the da Vinci 5. The X system production has already been relocated to the East Coast hub near Atlanta, and this year, the Xi system production will also shift to Atlanta.Looking ahead, they plan to establish new manufacturing facilities in California for both da Vinci 5 and Ion over the next 18 months. Simultaneously, they will finalise line transfers for Ion and SP to Mexicali, Mexico.Jamie Samath said: "We believe these activities will position Intuitive to serve our customers with best-in-class supply availability, product quality and product cost".#surgicalrobotics #medicaldevices #intuitive

📢 The medical field is rapidly evolving, and the convergence of robotics and medical imaging is playing a pivotal role in this transformation.💉 Medical imaging technologies like MRI, CT scans, and ultrasounds provide crucial insights into our bodies, but they often lack precision and accuracy for surgical procedures. 🤖 Robotics, on the other hand, offers the dexterity and precision needed to navigate complex surgical environments with minimal tissue damage. 👩🌾 The fusion of these two disciplines is giving rise to ground breaking innovations in minimally invasive surgery, targeted drug delivery, and surgical robotics. 🌎 This convergence is transforming the medical landscape, paving the way for safer, more effective, and less invasive procedures for patients worldwide. 😆 Here is a few examples of some of those great, innovative companies: 🔽 HistoSonics, Inc. developing a robotic system for performing ultrasound-guided biopsies.Their system uses ultrasound waves to create micro-bubbles in tissue,which can then be targeted with lasers to extract tissue samples. 🔻 CMR Surgical developing a robotic surgical system called Versius. Versius is designed to be smaller, lighter, and more portable than traditional robotic surgical systems, making it more accessible to healthcare providers in underserved areas.🔼 CASCINATION develops robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgical technologies to improve patient outcomes and surgical precision.#medicalimaging #Robotics #Technology

plans to start trials for their Surgical Robot next year 🦾Johnson & Johnson's MedTech division has shared their upcoming plans to submit an application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration next year for clinical trials of their general surgery robot, Ottava.Ottava aims to simplify operating room procedures by integrating four robotic arms into a standard-size surgical table, which can be stowed when not needed. Though Ottava is currently in development, Johnson & Johnson MedTech envisions a future with increased availability and flexibility of robotic systems in hospitals.Company Group Chairman, Robotics & Digital, Johnson & Johnson MedTech Hani Abouhalka said: “We believe the future of surgery is personal. Starting with the human impact – the connection between the patient, surgeon, and OR staff – we are unlocking what science and technology can do to improve the surgical experience and health outcomes for everyone involved. OTTAVA is designed to consistently deliver this experience in any OR globally"Watch this space 👀#surgicalrobotics #fda #johnsonandjohnson

🌏 Worlds First 🌏Caranx Medical announces the successful implantation of a transcatheter heart valve in animal with robotic assistance. Because of the relatively recent adoption of TAVI procedures (20 years), cardiologists face significant difficulties and long learning curves to achieve precise and accurate valve replacement. This has led to a shortage of skilled professionals who can do Tavi. 🤯 As a result, only 300,000 TAVI procedures are performed each year in the US and EU, while more than 1,700,000 patients wait to be treated. This coupled with a high complication rate, leads to a large need for pacemakers post-op. 🦾 Step in Caranx, who with a combination of robotics, ai, and imaging, aim to reduce complications, shrink the learning curve and upskill more surgeons to do Tavi.“This is a major breakthrough made by the Caranx team in recent months. However, we do not intend to stop at replacing the aortic valve. Our vision extends to the development of our artificial intelligence platform, which is powered by over 5,000 cataloged multimodal images from CT, fluoroscopy, echo, reports, etc. to revolutionize other endovascular indications, such as mitral and tricuspid valve replacements or even other endoluminal procedures, thereby reshaping the landscape of interventional medicine,” Jorgen Hansen, CEO of Caranx. Congratulations to the team on this big step. #surgicalrobotics #cardiology #medtech
