Maria Parham Health Unveils Advanced da Vinci Xi® Surgical System to Elevate Minimally Invasive Care

Maria Parham Health is thrilled to announce the acquisition of the da Vinci Xi® surgical system by Intuitive, a transformative leap forward in our mission to provide state-of-the-art minimally invasive care. This cutting-edge technology is set to revolutionize our surgical capabilities across a wide array of procedures, including gynecology, urology, and various general surgeries.

The da Vinci Xi® system integrates a sophisticated surgical console with four interactive robotic arms, proprietary EndoWrist® surgical instruments, and a high-definition three-dimensional visual system. This advanced setup allows our surgeons to perform complex operations with unmatched precision and control.

Key Benefits of the da Vinci Xi® Surgical System:

• Robotic Precision: The da Vinci system combines the surgeon's expertise with robotic precision, allowing for tiny, controlled movements that would be difficult to achieve with human hands alone. This enables complex surgeries to be performed through smaller incisions, resulting in less tissue damage and shorter recovery times for patients.
• Flexible Treatments: Equipped with four robotic arms and a versatile range of surgical tools, the da Vinci Xi® system enhances our ability to perform various procedures, including:
• Appendicitis
• Colon cancer
• Gallbladder disease
• Hernia repair and other soft-tissue surgeries

With advanced training, our surgeons can now tackle complex cases previously only manageable through open surgery.

• Improved Patient Outcomes: The minimally invasive nature of da Vinci surgery offers numerous advantages:
• Lower risk of infection
• Reduced blood loss
• Less trauma to surrounding healthy tissue
• Decreased pain
• Smaller scars
• Faster recovery

Each patient and procedure is unique, and our skilled surgeons will work closely with you to explain what to expect from a da Vinci procedure.

Proven Effectiveness: Since its introduction in 1999, the da Vinci surgical system has been used in over 775,000 procedures worldwide, demonstrating its effectiveness and reliability as a surgical option for many patients in good health.

"Our team is excited to integrate the da Vinci Xi® system into our surgical offerings," said Bert Beard, CEO at Maria Parham Health. "This innovative technology not only enhances our ability to perform complex surgeries with greater precision but also ensures better outcomes and faster recovery for our patients.  It’s one more way we are offering access to the most advanced standard of care to our communities."
