AIIMS Delhi installs da Vinci robot for training in robotic-assisted surgery

NEW DELHI: AIIMS Delhi has installed a state-of-the-art da Vinci Surgical Robot at its skills, e-learning and telemedicine (SET) facility for training, officials said.

Provided by Intuitive Surgicals under a memorandum of understanding, the robot opens up a new opportunity for training in robotic-assisted surgery at the premier institute.

“With the installation of this robot, AIIMS Delhi is now the only institution in the country to have two surgical robots purely for training,” the hospital said in a statement. A Hugo training robot, provided by Medtronics, already exists in the SET facility.
