Cardiac robotic surgery

We offer robotic-assisted cardiac surgery using the latest generation of robotic surgical technology, expanding minimally invasive treatment options for eligible patients.

Advanced, minimally invasive care

Atlantic Health offers select cardiac procedures using robotic-assisted surgical technology, providing patients with a minimally invasive alternative to traditional open-heart surgery when clinically appropriate.

Using the latest robotic platform, cardiac surgeons perform complex procedures through small incisions rather than a full sternotomy. The robotic system translates the surgeon's hand movements into precise movements of specialized instruments while providing highly magnified, three-dimensional visualization of the surgical field.

State-of-the-art robotic platform

We use the da Vinci 5 surgical system, the latest generation of robotic-assisted surgical technology. The platform features enhanced precision, advanced visualization and innovative technology designed to support complex minimally invasive procedures. The surgeon remains in complete control of the system at all times.

Robot Surgical Operation and Robots Surgery Concept and robotics in healthcare as medical technology using AI as artificial intelligence in medicine as computer guided medical equipment performing a surgical procedure as a futuristic hospital symbol.
