Robotic Heart Surgery – World’s latest technology now available in India

Robot Assisted Heart Procedures are done to treat a variety of conditions

Robot Assisted Heart Procedures are done to treat a variety of conditions:

1. Robot Assisted Mitral Valve Repair may be used to treat:

• Stenosis (narrowing) of the mitral valve
• Regurgitation (leakage) of the mitral valve

2. Robot Assisted Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) may be used to treat:

• Blockages in the heart’s arteries
• Severe chest pain ( angina ) that has not improved with medicines

3. Robot-assisted Atrial Septal defect repair may be used to treat a hole between the upper chambers of the heart that does not close properly during foetal development.

4. Robot-assisted Biventricular Pacemaker lead placement may be used to treat heart failure due to Atrial Fibrillation (irregular heart rhythm in the upper chambers of the heart).

Heart patient vouches for a passage to India

THE last thing John C remembers before being anaesthetized for surgery in India was a doctor saying, ”OK, Mr John,you must go to sleep now”. The 61-year-old laughs about the ”Mr John” reference now as one of the more quirky things about getting a new valve put into his heart in Delhi two months ago.

After researching his options as a patient with no health insurance in Australia, Mr Chandler decided he was better off paying $20,000 to travel to a modern Indian hospital for a minimally invasive, robotic procedure than going on the public waiting list for open-heart surgery or paying $60,000 for the same robotic operation in a private Australian hospital. ”It was amazing. The company organized all the transport, accommodation, internet, a mobile phone, all my medications, it was very easy … I feel great now. It all went very smoothly.”

Mr Chandler rejects claims about superbugs as scaremongering. In India, he drank bottled water, was given a room and bathroom of his own in the hospital in Delhi and says he was subjected to more diligent infection controls than he has seen in Australia.

”They cleaned the floor every two or three hours and every time a doctor or nurse saw me, they had masks on, feet gear, head gear, the whole lot. I don’t think there is a problem there at all.”
