Robotics in surgery – Redefining the surgery process with Endo-wrist instruments!

Unparalleled methods of surgery are becoming popular everyday due to its nature of perfection and faster recovery time over to contemporary methods. The inception of automation rather than robotics in operation rooms has proven to offer precise control on minute detailing. Some great facilities have housed the Da Vinci system for exceptional surgeries. These are minimum invasive surgeries and offer numerous advantages. There are many benefits due to the precise control on a granular level. Robotic arms are capable of several actions and expert doctors can control these arms from a console. The Endo-wrist instruments attached to these arms play a major role. Some of the most popular instruments are Energy instruments – These instruments are used for cutting, coagulation, and dissection. Forceps – These are used for various requirements of gripping during the operation Retractors – These instruments provide wide area within the operational area for easy maneuverability Needle drivers – These are used during all suture operations. The DA Vinci surgeon can perform various types of sutures and knotting and can even cut the thread with a built in blade. The technological advancement in the DA Vinci surgical system is beyond comparison and has the best to offer from any and every perspective during the complex surgeries. High PSA Counts On an average, one American out of six suffers from prostate cancer. Many victims of prostate cancer die without noticing the cancer due to aging. The silent nature of the disease is often overlooked. However, there is one source to diagnose the disease and it is through monitoring the PSA level found in the blood. The normal count of PSA in a normal male is 4 ng/ml or lower.
