Robotic Cardiac Surgery

The following are some of the main differences between traditional and robotic cardiac surgery:

• Surgical technique: While traditional surgery is carried out by creating a larger incision and using specialized instruments, robotic surgery, also known as keyhole surgery involves smaller incisions.
• Visualization: In contrast to traditional surgery, which involves the surgeon making direct contact with the patient's body, robotic surgery provides the surgeon with clear, three-dimensional, high-definition images.
• Precision and dexterity: While performing surgeries, a robotic system offers greater precision and dexterity than a traditional surgical procedure, which may involve handheld equipment that provides less of both. 
• Blood loss- In robotic cardiac surgery, there is minimal blood loss whereas in traditional cardiac surgery, it might lead to more blood loss.
• Recovery time- In traditional cardiac surgery, recovery time is longer when compared to robotic cardiac surgery. 
• Postoperative pain- Robotic cardiac surgery doesn’t cause much pain in comparison to traditional surgery.

Here are some of the benefits offered by robotic-assisted surgery:

• Increased flexibility, precision, and control
• 3D high-definition images of the surgical site
• Less of risk of requiring follow-up surgery 
• Less hospital stay 
• Quicker recovery time
• Reduced risk of shifting to traditional surgery 
• Reduced hand tremors
• Less risk of blood loss
