Abstract:Objective: Safety and sustainability are key elements of a robotic mitral valve (MV) program at any stage of development. Challenges include the positioning of the surgeon at the robotic console, increasing patient complexity, and upstream administrative staffing difficulties. We instituted a systems approach to maximize patient safety and maintain robotic service viability. Methods: A single dedicated robotic operating room (OR) was equipped as a microsystem with team training in the operative steps, ergonomi… Show more
