In the middle of December, 2020 Medtronic reported that it integrated high-speed drills of Midas Rex into the robotic system of surgery of a backbone Mazor. Besides, in a system new features of management of fusional implants appeared. As the American producer claims, regulating authorities granted permission for integration of new drills and other functions even earlier, than it was expected.
Operational are very difficult premises, and we with impatience expect updating of Mazor robots surgeons which will allow us to increase predictability and accuracy of a broad spectrum of procedures, thereby having improved results of treatment, - doctor Eiman Shafa from the Center of surgery of a backbone Twin Cities told. He also noted that use of robots surgeons at transactions will increase awareness of surgical personnel on the plan of the procedure and will potentially reduce radiation exposure at roentgenoscopy. |
According to Medtronic, high-speed drills of Midas Rex provide the enhanced accuracy of a trajectory, since creation of an initial opening. Special nozzles and tools should provide drilling accuracy with a speed up to 75,000 RPM. Besides, the new features of management of fusional implants implemented in the Mazor system will allow surgeons to visualize preparation of a disk and mezhtelovy placement of an implant during the procedure.
Having got permission of regulating authorities, we could bring the Mazor platform to the new plan. In process of development and achievement everything the new purposes we increase the accuracy of procedures and we add new abilities to manage to provide to hospitals the solutions focused on value, - Linnea Burman, the vice president and the CEO of Medtronic on development of technologies of cranial and spinal surgery Linnea Burman told.[1] |
