Possible problems with remote trauma operations during da Vinci surgery: the inability to get close to the patient.
Da Vinci minimally invasive surgery uses the Da Vinci surgical robot to perform surgical operations. The Da Vinci surgical robot was developed by a company in the United States. It is an intelligent and minimally invasive robot. Advanced surgical equipment was initially used in urology surgery, and later developed into general surgery, thoracic surgery, gynecology and other fields.
The Da Vinci robot usually consists of three parts: a surgeon's console system, an imaging system, and a bedside robotic arm system. The robotic arm can ensure precise control of 7 degrees of freedom and can complete some actions that humans cannot complete. The bedside robotic arm system has a vibration elimination and motion positioning system, which can filter out the tremor of the surgeon's hand and reduce the surgeon's range of motion.
The endoscope in the imaging system can enlarge the surgical field of view more than 10 times and provide a high-resolution lens with high-definition three-dimensional images, which is helpful for fine separation of various tissues, lymph node dissection and suturing, etc. .
Compared with traditional surgery, da Vinci minimally invasive surgery improves the accuracy and flexibility of surgery, has a wider operating range, smaller trauma, less pain, less bleeding, and faster recovery. , reducing the risks of surgery.
However, the da Vinci robot lacks tactile feedback and may accidentally injure organs, tear tissue and damage sutures. From this aspect, it will affect the safety and accuracy of surgery to a certain extent.
