When you consider modern surgery, you may think of very updated and technologically advanced operating rooms. However, many clinicians still cling to outdated operating techniques that require a clinician to perform all of their closures manually. This method leaves the operation open to greater chances of infection and accidents. Fortunately, robotic surgery closure offers a much more beneficial approach.
Enhances Ability to See the Closure Site
When using robotic surgery methods to close a surgery cut, the surgeon will sit at a console to perform the closure. While sitting at the console, the surgeon will be able to see a magnified image of the operational cut. This 3D image magnifies the ability of the physician to see the cut, which can greatly improve the accuracy of the closure. Greater accuracy can result in better suture techniques as well as reduced rates of infection.
Decreased Patient Discomfort
Using robotic techniques for closure typically involves using robotic techniques for the incision, too. When used together, robotic surgery can greatly reduce the overall pain that patients experience. Incisions tend to be smaller and the closures more precise, which can reduce the recovery time for patients as well.
Reduce Potential for Injuries
Some of the most common injuries that surgical clinicians experience are needlesticks. The closure of a surgical incision is a common time that clinicians will experience being stuck. By using robotic techniques for closure, the chances of being stuck are greatly reduced.
