常见问题的
- 为什么它被称为达芬奇®手术系统?
The product is called "da Vinci ®" in part because Leonardo da Vinci ® invented the first robot. He also used unparalleled anatomical accuracy and three-dimensional details to bring his masterpieces to life. The da Vinci ® Surgical System similarly provides physicians with such enhanced detail and precision that the System can simulate an open surgical environment while allowing operation 通过微小的切口.
- 什么是微创手术(MIS)?
MIS通常是通过小切口进行的手术, 或操作港口, 而不是大的切口, 从而可能缩短恢复时间, 更少的并发症, 降低了住院费用,减少了病人的创伤. 虽然MIS已成为特定外科手术的标准护理, it has not been widely adopted for more complex or delicate procedures – for example, 前列腺切除术和二尖瓣修复.
Intuitive Surgical believes that surgeons have been slow to adopt MIS for complex procedures because they generally find that fine-tissue manipulation – such as dissecting and suturing – is more difficult than in open surgery. Intuitive Surgical's technology, 然而, enables the use of MIS techniques for complex procedures.
- 为什么我们需要一种新的方法来做微创手术?
Despite the widespread use of minimally invasive or laparoscopic surgery in today's hospitals, 采用腹腔镜技术, 在很大程度上, 被限制在一些常规程序中. This is due mostly to the limited capabilities of traditional laparoscopic technology, 包括标准视频和刚性仪器, 哪些外科医生必须依靠小切口进行手术.
在传统的开放手术中, 医生做一个很长的切口,然后将其扩大以进入解剖结构. In traditional minimally invasive surgery – which is widely used for routine procedures -- the surgeon operates using rigid, 手动工具, which are passed through small incisions and views the anatomy on a standard video monitor. Neither this laparoscopic instrumentation nor the video monitor can provide the surgeon with the excellent visualization needed to perform complex surgery like valve repair or nerve-sparing prostatectomy.
- What are the benefits of da Vinci ® 手术 compared with traditional methods of surgery?
Some of the major benefits experienced by surgeons using the da Vinci ® Surgical System over traditional approaches have been greater surgical precision, 增加活动范围, 提高灵活性, 增强的可视化和改进的澳门新葡京app. 患者所经历的好处可能包括缩短住院时间, 更少的痛苦, 降低感染风险, 少失血, 减少输血, 更少的伤疤, 更快的恢复和更快的恢复正常的日常活动. 这些好处都不能保证, 因为手术必须同时针对病人和手术程序.
- Why can't surgeons perform complex procedures such as cardiac surgery through 1-2 cm ports today?
Complex procedures like cardiac surgery require an excellent view of the operative field and the ability to maneuver instruments within tight spaces with precision and control. Surgeons historically have used invasive approaches like "open sternotomy" for heart surgery, which means splitting the breastbone and pulling back the ribs and typically results in a foot-long incision. This provides visibility and allows room for the surgeon to get his or her hands and instruments very close to the operative site, 但会导致严重的疼痛, 病人失血过多,恢复时间长. More recently, smaller incisions have been used to perform a variety of cardiac procedures. 然而, many cardiac surgeons feel the reduced access may limit visualization and may impede access to the operative field.
- 达芬奇®手术系统目前在哪些地方使用?
目前, The da Vinci ® Surgical System is being used in hundreds of locations worldwide, 在美国的主要中心, 奥地利, 比利时, 加拿大, 丹麦, 法国, 德国, 意大利, 印度, 日本, 荷兰, 罗马尼亚, 沙特阿拉伯, 新加坡, 瑞典, 瑞士, 联合王国, 澳大利亚和土耳其.
- da Vinci®手术系统是否获得了FDA的批准?
美国.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared the da Vinci ® Surgical System for a wide range of procedures. Please see the FDA Clearance page for specific clearances and representative uses.
- 达芬奇手术是否在保险范围内?
da Vinci 手术 is categorized as robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery, so any insurance that covers minimally invasive surgery generally covers da Vinci ® 手术. 对于像医疗保险这样的广泛持有的保险计划来说,情况确实如此. It is important to note that your coverage will depend on your plan and benefits package. 关于达芬奇手术报销的细节, 或者如果你被拒绝保险, 请拨打报销热线1-888-868-4647分机. 3128. 在美国以外,请拨打33-1-39-04-26-90.
- 达芬奇®手术系统会使外科医生变得不必要吗?
正相反, 达芬奇®系统使外科医生更加精确, advancing their technique and enhancing their capability in performing complex minimally invasive surgery. 该系统实时复制外科医生的动作. 它不能被编程, nor can it make decisions on its own to move in any way or perform any type of surgical maneuver without the surgeon's input.
- Is a surgeon using the da Vinci ® Surgical System operating in "virtual reality"?
虽然他坐在离病人几英尺远的控制台, the surgeon views an actual image of the surgical field while operating in real-time, 通过微小的切口, 使用小型, 而仪器. At no time does the surgeon see a virtual image or program/command the system to perform any maneuver on its own/outside of the surgeon's direct, 实时控制.
- 这是远程手术吗? 你能远距离操作吗?
The da Vinci ® Surgical System can theoretically be used to operate over long distances. 此功能, 然而, is not the primary focus of the company and thus is not available with the current da Vinci ® Surgical System.
- 使用达芬奇®手术系统时, 外科医生能感觉到病人胸部或腹部的任何东西吗?
The system relays some force feedback sensations from the operative field back to the surgeon throughout the procedure. This force feedback provides a substitute for tactile sensation and is augmented by the enhanced vision provided by the high-resolution 3D view.
- 使用达芬奇®手术系统进行了哪些手术? 还有什么额外的程序是可能的?
The da Vinci ® System is a robotic surgical platform designed to enable complex procedures of all types to be performed through 1-2 cm incisions or operating "ports.“到目前为止, 数以万计的程序,包括一般, 泌尿道的, 妇科, 经, and 经ally-assisted cardiotomy procedures have been performed using the da Vinci ® Surgical System.
