Delray Medical Center acquires the Intuitive da Vinci 5® surgical system, designed with the goal of further advancing technology used in minimally invasive care. Da Vinci 5 is Intuitive’s most advanced and integrated platform—designed to transform surgery to enable better outcomes, efficiency, and actionable insights.
Da Vinci 5 is the newest entry to the da Vinci portfolio of systems, which also includes da Vinci X®, da Vinci Xi®, and da Vinci SP®. The system can be used for minimally invasive surgical procedures for urology, gynecology, thoracic, and general surgeries.
“At Delray Medical Center, we are committed to providing our community with the most advanced surgical technology available, and the addition of the da Vinci 5 system is a significant step forward in that mission,” says Heather Havericak, the hospital’s CEO. “This cutting-edge platform allows our skilled surgeons to perform complex procedures with greater precision, improved visualization, and enhanced patient outcomes.”
With more than 150 new design innovations, da Vinci 5 expands upon core da Vinci system features, including wristed instruments, 3DHD visualization, intuitive motion, and an ergonomic design. As with all da Vinci surgical systems, the surgeon is 100% in control of the robotic-assisted da Vinci system, which translates their hand movements into smaller, more precise movements of tiny instruments inside the patient’s body. Key enhancements include:
- First-of-its-kind Force Feedback technology, which can reduce the amount of force on tissue1
- Optimized vision with truer colors, higher image resolution, and the most realistic da Vinci 3D image
- Better ergonomics for greater surgeon comfort and surgical viewing
- More than 10,000x the computing power of da Vinci Xi to deliver actionable insights
The da Vinci 5 system is a future-ready platform with advanced capabilities today and abundant capacity to incorporate ongoing enhancements. The system was designed to blend seamlessly into program workflows. We are thrilled to be a leader in this field and look forward to continually bringing South Florida advanced minimally invasive surgical options.
