Carina™ demonstrated fast intraoperative response time and short overall operation time. The modular arms adapted well to our existing workflow, and the placement of surgical ports was configurable to each patient. Whether it is a right hemicolectomy or a low anterior resection, Carina™ met our surgical needs.
For purse-string sutures, the patient cart is so compact it does not need to be moved; the arm is easy to fold and unfold, just like the cart is easy to deploy or remove. This provides a swiftness and smoothness of operation comparable to that of single-pedestal platforms.
The modular design of Carina™ not only features compact patient carts but also allows for quick and flexible setup and teardown, making it highly efficient for the operating room team. In thoracic surgeries, Carina™ Instruments offer a large operable range and can easily reach the distal pulmonary ligament using traditional robotic port placement, making the entire surgical procedure smoother.
The flexible and compact design of the patient carts leaves ample room for the bedside assistant and anesthesiologists. It creates a more spacious operating environment for the entire surgical staff.
Carina™ does not require a large dedicated area for draping, allowing easy setup in small operating rooms. The patient cart has a low profile and small footprint, allowing it to be stowedwith minimal space.
During all my cases, Carina™ demonstrated stability and excellent performance, fully meeting the needs of Gynecology procedures.
Carina™ has a small footprint and can be transported easily between operating rooms. After the robotic portion of the operation is complete and instruments are removed, any patient cart can be converted into an independent laparoscopic trolley for holding the scope, providing even more flexibility and convenience.
Carina™ performance is comparable to single-pedestal platforms. The patient cart positioning is flexible, teleoperation operation is smooth, and the straight instruments offer more choices for cost-effectiveness.
The modular design fully leverages the advantages of robotic technology, enabling efficient and streamlined movements, with highly dexterous and precise instruments and enhanced maneuverability in tight spaces for urological tumors.
Bedside assistants are not at risk of injury from moving robotic arms. With an unobstructed view above the bed, and a sterile area to rest their arms, they canconserve energy for long or consecutive surgeries. After teleoperation is completed and instruments are removed, it is extremely helpful that one patient cart can be left at bedside to hold the endoscope.
