RoSS™ – Simulatore di Chirurgia Robotica

Il RoSS, simulatore di chirurgia robotica, è un sistema portatile di formazione medica avanzata che utilizza la realtà virtuale per introdurre l’utente ai fondamenti della chirurgia robotica assistita.

RoSS viene fornito con database di casi clinici per la formazione alle abilità cognitive e pratiche necessarie per operare con un robot chirurgico da Vinci. La somiglianza della console RoSS alla console principale del sistema chirurgico da Vinci è stata convalidata da studi scientifici internazionali.

Il sistema archivia degli indici di performance per tutti gli utenti in un database esportabile in un file Excel. Il RoSS è dotato di 16 moduli a difficoltà progressiva (orientamento spaziale, skill chirurgici di base e intermedi, scenari reali) aggiornati con funzionalità uniche, come ad esempio:

• Knot-Tying Module: modulo per la pratica del nodo chirurgico.
• Blunt Tissue and Vessel Dissection: modulo per la pratica alla dissezione di tessuto e di vaso.
• Moduli HoST™ di intervento su paziente virtuale per le seguenti procedure:
  • HOST-PROS-01: Prostatectomia Radicale
  • HOST-CYST-01: Cistectomia Radicale
  • HOST-HYST-01: Isterectomia Radicale
