New York, March 14, 2024 - PRISM MediaWire - In a groundbreaking medical advancement, the Narayana Institute of Cardiac Sciences in Bengaluru, India, has achieved a significant milestone by performing the world’s first mitral valve replacement using the SSi Mantra Surgical Robotic System. This pioneering procedure marks a new era in cardiac surgery, offering a minimally invasive solution that promises to transform patient outcomes and recovery times.
The SSi Mantra Surgical Robotic System
Developed by SS Innovations (OTC: SSII), the SSi Mantra Surgical Robotic System is a testament to the progress in medical robotics. The system is designed to provide surgeons with unparalleled precision and control, enabling complex cardiac surgeries to be performed through small incisions rather than the traditional sternum-splitting approach.
The Procedure
The historic surgery was led by Dr. Nitin Kumar Rajput from Narayana Health and was overseen by Dr. Sudhir Srivastava, the founder and chairman of SS Innovations and a pioneer in robotic cardiac surgery. The procedure involved creating four ports for the robotic arms and a tiny 2.5 cm working port for the table-side assistant, allowing for a swift operation with minimal patient discomfort.
Patient Benefits
Patients stand to benefit immensely from this technological leap. The minimally invasive nature of the surgery means less pain, reduced risk of infection, and quicker recovery times. In this particular case, the patient was discharged with good exercise tolerance just three days post-surgery—a remarkable improvement over traditional methods.
A Vision for the Future
Dr. Srivastava’s vision of a highly minimally invasive solution for cardiac patients has been realized through the SSi Mantra System. With over 60 coronary artery bypass grafts (CABGs) already performed using the system, the successful mitral valve replacement is a confirmation of the system’s capabilities and potential.
Global Impact
The success of the SSi Mantra System in India is a beacon of hope for cardiac patients worldwide. It demonstrates the potential for advanced medical technologies to be made accessible and cost-effective, even in developing countries, thereby democratizing the benefits of cutting-edge healthcare.
Conclusion
The world-first mitral valve replacement using the SSi Mantra Surgical Robotic System is not just a medical achievement; it is a step towards a future where surgeries are safer, recovery is faster, and patient care is at the forefront of medical innovation.
