"The first time I touched robotic surgery, the level of precision and precision brought by this digitization was very impressive." Tsering Lunzhu, 43, is a deputy chief physician of the orthopedics department of Shannan People's Hospital in Xizang Province. At 11:40 am on June 5, after finishing the first robot-assisted total knee replacement surgery in his career, he reviewed his past three or four hundred surgeries. Lunzhu admitted that, especially in plateau areas, robot-assisted surgery can make the surgery safer. More effectively solve the problem of doctors "can not see" and "unstable".
On June 5, the five-place 5G remote synchronous multi-center robot hip and knee replacement surgery led by Professor Zhang Xianlong's team of Orthopedics Department of Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital, Haikou Orthopedics and Diabetes Hospital of Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital, Quzhou Orthopedics and Traumatology Hospital of Zhejiang Province, Shannan People's Hospital of Xizang Province and the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University were carried out respectively. Professor Zhang Changqing, Professor Zhang Xianlong, Professor Wang Qi and Professor Shen Hao from the Sixth Hospital of Orthopaedics participated in the remote guidance.
At 10:30 a.m. on the same day, Haikou Orthopedics and Diabetes Hospital of Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital opened the first remote robot-assisted total hip replacement surgery based on 5G network with the assistance of remote technology. In traditional artificial joint replacement surgery, even experienced doctors can only achieve 85% accuracy, and it takes at least five years to train a doctor who can perform this type of surgery. Robotic surgery comes into being, which is a transformative technology for joint surgery, not only greatly accelerates the doctor training cycle, but also helps doctors to complete each operation in a standardized and accurate manner, bringing patients faster recovery with less trauma, and the surgical accuracy can be close to 100%.
