Patients who have a robotic-assisted, minimally invasive surgical procedure utilizing the da Vinci Surgical System generally experience:
- Shorter hospital stay
- Less scarring
- Less risk of infection
- Minimal trauma to the body
- Less blood loss and fewer transfusions
- Faster recovery
- Quicker return to normal activities
In addition, clinical studies suggest that robotic-assisted surgery may help surgeons provide better clinical outcomes than conventional technologies allow.
