Versius – the innovative surgical robotic system designed to perform minimal access robot surgery was presented in the Zan Mitrev Clinical Hospital today. The presentation of the performance introduced the smallest surgical robot to the Macedonian professional, medical community. It can perform laparoscopic and minimally invasive procedures which benefits the patients, the surgeons and all medical professionals.
Versius technology is a digital interface between the surgeon and the patient. It consists of a work console operated by a surgeon and 4 arms, one holding the camera, and the other three holding the instruments. All arms are modular and completely imitate the movements of a human arm (shoulder, elbow, wrist). Each of the arms can work independently of the others, but they also work in unison (triangulation). The robotic procedure reduces blood loss, pain after surgery, as well as the recovery time.
Versius assists surgeons in various medical areas, mostly in urology, laparoscopic hysterectomy, gastroenterology and gynecology, wherever laparoscopic or minimally invasive approach is used, where the surgery involves a series of small incisions, something which is not available to millions of people around the world.
Versius is an invention of the British company, Cambridge Medical Robotics Surgical and it has been used to perform more than 20 thousand procedures in more than 20 countries.
Zan Mitrev Clinical Hospital always strives to develop and perfect the work techniques by introducing and using the most innovative methods, applying the latest developments in the new digital era in the sphere of medicine, with a view of providing the greatest possible benefits to the patients.
