    Dude! Well done! You speak well and use appropriate terminology for us lay people. I'm a retired military pilot and remember when we first came up with "fly by wire" which meant there was no longer a mechanical link from the flight controls to the control surfaces! It was a rather shocking concept to us but we soon learned it was a good way to do things and we trusted it. Thanks for the video and best of luck!

    This is amazing! I had a partial helicolectomy by a surgeon using one of these robots and was back home in less than a week, and fully recovered 6-8 weeks later. Sure beats open abdominal surgery with a colostomy bag and several months of recovery and such.

    I had kidney cancer removed (partial nephrectomy) with this robot in early 2017 guided by a great surgeon at Mayo Clinic. 4 or 5 holes in my stomach with this wonderful machine (for the trocars - - - I tell people i was in a drive by shooting) vs. the old way of making a giant long incision. It is indeed a great time to be alive. Thanks for your videos - it is clear that you are a great tech and person. Maybe you should go to medical school ??

    I had a cancer removed from my right kidney (as well as a fair bit of that kidney) with a Davinci XI system. The sophistication and precision of the system meant the surgery was much less invasive than what the traditional surgery would have been. If I had a traditional surgery they would have taken the whole kidney out, whereas my surgery left about 1/3 of it in place. The initial recovery to discharge was also fairly quick just a few days, whereas it would have been weeks with traditional surgery.

    The development of this system was due to the US Navy. They needed a way to remotely operate from shore. Nurse sets the patient up and the surgeon, onshore, does the surgery. I lost my cancerous prostate to this system. Tough recovery but so much easier than if it was standard open surgery.

    It’s interesting that we have all this crazy technology, yet some Americans still can’t afford healthcare, are poorly cared for under Medicare, Medicaid, or are uninsured, underinsured, etc. if this is the future, this robot should be operating 24/6, saving lives. It’s amazing for those who’ve afforded themselves, or, “earned” (as the western attitude toward healthcare denotes) the means to utilize its capacities. Hopefully, a system such as this can one day become commonplace for common humans.

    My dad is convinced the DaVinci robot caused his blood clots that went to his lungs when he had prostatectomy for PCa. However that is a potential risk of any major operation.
    If not for the DaVinci robot allowing for quick and accurate access, it's possible his complications may have actually been worse without it.

      It has happened, and there are fail safes in place for when it does. Each robotic instrument has a breaking point with a We little allen key we keep on the surgical field. If for some reason an instrument fails and wont let go of the tissue, the allen key will break the instrument to allow the jaws to open. In the event of catastrophic failure of the entire system we have to simply power cycle the system, just like restarting a computer. Everything stays in place and the same, just power cycles through. In the event that doesn't work there is 24/7 staff available from intuitive that can log into the system from the cloud and diagnose and fix the problem immediately.

      Saran Techamanoon oh no, you will see in the next videos how the surgical tech interacts with the robot. We have the job of staying "sterile" at the field. Switching out instruments on the robot for the surgeon, passing mesh, sutures, and other things for the surgeon as well. The surgical tech has a pivotal role with the robot that won't be going away.

      It will be better this way. A.I. will be able to keep people alive at much better rates and much less risk of failure. Humans have the "Human touch" but it's both their greatest attribute and their achilles heel. Machines are so much better at these kind of jobs where precision and stamina are paramount. I'd trust a machine for a job like this anytime over a human being. Especially in the near future where these kind of apparatus will be outperforming humans at basically any task at hand- both intellectually and physically.

      I designed automation systems for industrial use for years. This system is very much worth 2.5 million.

    How long has this robotic surgery technology been considered viable for hospital use? Would surgeons today, consider using such technology?
