Da Vinci Robotic Surgery
Taylor Regional Hospital is pleased to announce the recent acquisition of the Intuitive da Vinci 5®surgical system, designed with the goal of further advancing technology used in minimally invasive care. Da Vinci 5 is Intuitive’s most advanced and integrated platform—designed to transform surgery to enable better outcomes, efficiency, and actionable insights.
Da Vinci 5 is the newest entry to the da Vinci portfolio of systems, which also includes da Vinci X®, da Vinci Xi®, and da Vinci SP®. The system can be used for minimally invasive surgical procedures for urology, gynecology, thoracic, and general surgeries.
With more than 150 new design innovations, da Vinci 5 expands upon core da Vinci system features, including wristed instruments, 3DHD visualization, intuitive motion, and an ergonomic design. As with all da Vinci surgical systems, the surgeon is 100% in control of the robotic-assisted da Vinci system, which translates their hand movements into smaller, more precise movements of tiny instruments inside the patient’s body.
Key enhancements include:

First-of-its-kind Force Feedback technology, which can reduce the amount of force on tissue

Optimized vision with truer colors, higher image resolution, and the most realistic da Vinci 3D image

Better ergonomics for greater surgeon comfort and surgical viewing

More than 10,000x the computing power of da Vinci Xi to deliver actionable insights
Mike Everett, Taylor Regional Hospital CEO shared, “We chose to partner with The Intuitive Company for robotic surgery because we share the same vision of enhancing the quality of life for our communities. Achieving better outcomes, better experiences, lower cost of care, along with improved access so that patients can quickly get back to what matters most to them living their life!”
This advancement is furthering our commitment to changing healthcare for those in the Commonwealth.
The da Vinci 5 system is a future-ready platform with advanced capabilities today and abundant capacity to incorporate ongoing enhancements. The system was designed to blend seamlessly into program workflows. We are thrilled to be a leader in this field and look forward to continually bringing Campbellsville and surrounding counties, advanced minimally invasive surgical options.
