Remote coronary artery suturing performed on animal model via SS Innovations’ telesurgery platform
SMRSC 2024 welcomed global medical experts and innovators to explore the future of robotic surgery
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Feb. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SS Innovations International, Inc. (OTC: SSII), a developer of innovative surgical robotic technologies dedicated to making robotic surgery affordable and accessible to a global population, conducted a groundbreaking live telesurgery demonstration at the inaugural SS Innovations Multi-Specialty Robotic Surgical Conference (SMRSC) that was held in Gurugram, Haryana, India on January 19 and 20, 2024. SS Innovations Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Sudhir Srivastava, through SS Innovations’ Telesurgery Platform, performed a remote coronary artery suturing demonstration on an animal model during the conference’s first day to acclaim from the audience of more than 350 participants.
“Our breakthrough technology opens up endless possibilities for conducting remote medical procedures worldwide,” said Dr. Srivastava. “It was an honor to share this innovation through our flagship robotic surgical system, the SSi Mantra™, among a group of global leaders and experts in the field of robotic surgery, and we truly believe the sky is the limit for this application of technology.”
The remote telesurgery demonstration included precisely suturing on a coronary artery less than one millimeter in diameter on a porcine heart model. There was no observable latency, which is an absolute requirement for remote surgeries, and was performed from the conference hotel to the SSI Lab a few kilometers away as attendees watched live. The remote telesurgery was the first of several live, broadcasted surgeries during the conference showcasing the SSi Mantra™ and demonstrating its practical applications across specialties including cardiac, colorectal, urology, gynecology and general surgery, providing attendees with real-time insights from an expert panel of multi-specialty robotic surgeons. Other procedures included a robotic atrial septal defect repair, a radical prostatectomy, a radical hysterectomy, a LIMA Takedown, a radical cystectomy, robotic hernia repairs and a radical nephrectomy, among others.
SMRSC 2024 provided an unparalleled opportunity for participants to explore the future of robotic surgery, with a specific focus on the SSi Mantra™. Panel discussions and scientific sessions featured distinguished international faculty, sharing insights on the future of robotic surgery across the world. Sessions also covered the integration of Artificial Intelligence into surgery, and the pursuit of sustainable telesurgery, among others.
The SSi Mantra™ Surgical Robotic System is the first surgical system to be made in India, and one of the only systems in the world to be cost-effective with broad-spectrum surgical applications including cardiac surgery. It has been granted regulatory approval in India and Guatemala and is clinically validated in more than 40 different types of surgical procedures. More than 650 surgical procedures have been performed using the system to date. SS Innovations has commenced the regulatory approval process in the United States and EU, and anticipates receiving such approvals in the latter half of 2024 -2025 time frame.
