Mazor Robotics, a developer of innovative surgical robots and complementary products, announced that Nova Medical Centers, a leading short-stay surgical chain in India has placed an order for a Renaissance surgical robot system through Advanced Medical Systems (AMS), Mazor’s distribution partner in India. The system will be used at the Nova Orthopaedic & Spine Hospital, a newly-opened hospital in New Delhi, dedicated to orthopaedic and spinal surgeries. This system marks the second Renaissance system in India.
“This system sale represents Mazor’s second installment in India, but given the high efficacy of Mazor’s Renaissance system and a desire by hospitals to provide its patients with the best procedural outcomes, I believe we are just at the beginning of what could be a much larger installed base,” commented Romesh Kaul, President and Chief Executive Officer of AMS. “Dr Harsha Hedge, Medical Director (Orthopaedics) at Nova and one of India’s most-renowned and experienced orthopedic surgeons, will be using the robotic system. With his vast training and experience in addition to his stellar reputation, there is no better ambassador for letting the whole of India know about the benefits of using Mazor’s Renaissance system.”
Dr Harsha Hegde, Director Medical Services at Nova Orthopaedic & Spine Hospital stated, “The hospital has been custom created for providing world-class Orthopaedic care and rehabilitation. We believe that “Movement is Life” and our efforts are directed towards preserving and enhancing the patient’s quality of life.”
Renaissance, Mazor Robotics’ next generation surgical guidance system for spine procedures, is transforming spine surgery from freehand operations to highly-accurate, state-of-the-art procedures, with less radiation – even for minimally invasive surgery, scoliosis, and other complex spinal deformity cases. It is the only robotic technology for spine surgery available in the marketplace.
