OTS - Intuitive's da Vinci Single-Port Surgical System Receives CE Mark / da Vinci SP approved for use in Europe across multiple procedures
2024. January 24. 10:00
Sunnyvale, Calif., 24 January, 2024 (APA/OTS) - Intuitive (NASDAQ:
ISRG), a global technology leader in minimally invasive care and
the pioneer of robotic-assisted surgery, announced that the da
Vinci Single-Port (SP) surgical system has received CE mark
approval for use in Europe for endoscopic abdominopelvic,
thoracoscopic, transoral otolaryngology, transanal colorectal, and
breast surgical procedures.
"We are pleased to receive CE mark for our da Vinci SP system,
which offers surgeons across Europe the ability to perform more
complex operations, across more patient types, in a minimally
invasive way," said Intuitive CEO Gary Guthart. "The da Vinci SP
system represents the latest addition to our product portfolio in
Europe and expands options for surgeons and hospitals seeking to
provide patients with evidence-based, innovative care."
The da Vinci SP system includes three, multi-jointed, wristed
instruments and a fully wristed three-dimensional (3D),
high-definition (HD) camera. The instruments and the camera all
emerge through a single cannula and are properly triangulated
around the target anatomy at the distal tip.
The system enables flexible port placement and excellent
internal and external range of motion (e.g., 360-degrees of
anatomical access) through the single da Vinci SP system arm.
Surgeons control the fully articulating instruments and the camera
on the da Vinci SP system from a console.
"Surgeons in Europe have long been at the forefront of
robotic-assisted surgery and have led the adoption of innovative
care that offers meaningful patient benefits," said Intuitive's
Senior Vice President and General Manager for Europe Dirk Barten.
"With the introduction of the da Vinci SP system, Intuitive
continues to provide the latest technology to European surgeons and
hospitals."
A growing body of evidence - nearly 400 peer reviewed
publications to date - support the safety, efficacy and outcomes
associated with the da Vinci SP system.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has cleared the da Vinci
SP system for certain urology procedures, including simple
prostatectomy, as well as transoral otolaryngology procedures. The
da Vinci SP system is also approved for use in Japan and Korea for
procedures across several disciplines.
