I think I'm ready to do my own surgery now! Thanks for the interesting video clips.

[@Roboticdock]

Thanks for all tips and tricks! I love this.

[@leonardoseyboth192]

Congrets. very nice to see the way that you explain!!

[@sandyasseff5911]

This was very informative!! Just recently joined the SPD team, seeing how the instruments are used (in English) is so beneficial!! Thank you!!!

[@francisromel596]

Thanks a lot Sir for this video. Your Hospital have an amazing piece of handware.

[@Gabriel3Gamu]

Fascinating thank you Shane. By the way, I love the small humors edits It kind help my brain to get more engaged with the technical info you provided. Outstanding edit and great info.

[@SurgicalTechTips]

+Gabriel3Gamu thank you! I do try to lighten it up every 3-4min or so just to give the brain a chuckle. Glad you like it.

[@moniquealameda8099]

I’m training on the robot and these videos are helping me so much. Thank you!!!

[@polamai]

Amazing videos, i am going to be training in robotics this coming week and your videos have taught me a lot. Thank you man, and keep the good work, i am not afraid now that i know it will be fun. Thank you again

[@stephenattkins601]

Dude, great video series. You should do more as your delivery style is relaxed and dumb's down the techno speak to a level that is easily digestible and translatable to the OR environment.

[@HmmmmmLemmeThinkNo]

I'm getting a hysterectomy with one of these in a couple months, and i'm so excited! This tech is so cool

[@milanmilenkovic6411]

Thank you. You are very good with a lot of experience and knowledge...Good luck.

[@jaykelley6304]

Thank you for this interesting video. Having just had complex 4 hour laparoscopic bilateral inguinal surgery using the da Vinci robotic assist system it is amazing. I am thankful for this technology and especially the surgeon's meticulous skill in performing this surgery with results that could not have been nearly as successful with open surgery.

[@arkansassteelworker]

Awesome videos. I’m have a partial nephrectomy next week. I hope my er staff are as diligent as you. Thanks!

[@DarkCircels]

Thank you very much you've helped me alot in my research ^^

[@djkralytmer]

Thank you very much for your informative demonstration.

I am learning how to robot , this is a great and informative video. Thank you

[@heungyanjennywoo8681]

Thanks for the informative video. It's help me a lot on my work.

[@doriskidgersydney-australi8468]

Hi Shane i am a RN in OT at St. George Hospital private Kogarah NSW Sydney Australia, it's amazing how Robotic is taking over contemporary and traditional surgery, is giving good result for the patient and the surgeon are enjoying performing specially the Urologist I been to conference recently about Robotic and just learning Robotic going through da vinci xi p6, learning a lot but just wanted to thank you for your video, as new learner I am looking for resources to learnt and your video certainly has gave me the best tips. thank you Doris Kidger

[@SurgicalTechTips]

Thanks Doris!

[@casssolari9012]

This is fantastic!! Far out...that machine must be worth millions of $$$$!!

[@aayatshaikh2088]

Very helpful 👌 ,thanks for your all efforts.

[@rebibrindle9789]

Great info. So clear. Thank you!

[@crystadabs]

Awesome video. Thank you

[@partheniafrench7849]

This helped me understand what will happen when I have surgery for my diverticulitis. Not so scary now.

[@nextgen00]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge...

[@DebbieFBI]

Great vid, thanks!

[@CahayaBerkahSinergi]

Very informative video, thanks.

[@shekarmg4153]

Excellent demo.. thanks a lot

[@ronaldschrein9320]

We need a video on receiving and labeling all types of medications onto the sterile field

[@btang7225]

Thank you sir. A very good content

[@sz911116]

thank you for sharing!

[@eddiegonzalez3169]

@surgicaltechtips I absolutely love your videos! It's made me get interested in the career. My question for you is, have you ever thought of teaching at a college or technical college, about surgical technology, by your videos you are very knowledgeable and could see you has an instructor!

[@SurgicalTechTips]

Maybe I will teach when I want things to slow down a bit in life, but as for right now I love the fast pace of the OR!

[@tammygorden9890]

Very helpful!

[@bunnyandkobe3607]

Thankyou sir.....it helped a lot

[@smax308]

Thank you

[@naphenen8551]

Thanks

[@estebanpadron6131]

Excellent video. We want to know more please

[@RB-gg7de]

WoW so informational - thanks. As a patient, I have a question. Is there a certification that the Surgeon and the assistant (the person inserting the robot) have to have? And are there standards that a patient should look for from the Surgeon?

[@user-bs1pw6hi5z]

thanks bro

[@mariaddis9341]

Thank you! I haven't done a DaVinci case in 5 years. I will be precepting on a hysterectomy next week. 👍🏾

[@SurgicalTechTips]

Best of luck!

[@jhinshawmd]

suction irrigator use and any other newer instruments .. tricks tips

[@kamthanei9672]

Great videos sir..bdw Can this be use as telemedicine..i.e.to operate some one in remote areas??

[@terrancesampson5141]

I Agree 👍🏾💯

[@adriansmith6108]

During the reinsertion point, doesn’t the robot arm adjust to within about 1 cm less than where it was previously as a safety measure so it doesn’t go in too far?

[@d.savage1508]

Thanks bub

[@amirrezashamszadeh5700]

hi.thank u so much .how do work memory ?and how recognize same instrument .i confused that how to work it .

[@texastejanocamper8513]

To bring the port out because the black line is inserted to deep, one has to push to port clutch button first?

[@jeanetteraichel8299]

How long does it add to surgery time to hook up a patient to the robot

[@davidbolling906]

Do u use 3D max mesh ? Does it go through the 8 mm trocar?

[@derebakhtyar273]

Weldone

[@Angela-nd2ub]

isnt that the one from House md ?

[@toddb930]

I think I can understand how the trocar is sterilized, but how are the instruments sterilized?

[@cherylmedina4702]

How about the emergency key??

[@markusvonwelt7035]

Hey man, thanks for the great video, really helped me with my thesis. Just one little thing, you have a typo in the title. :D

[@PonhaHeng]

best

[@mattmcfatter7629]

I've had ppl ask me to see if I want to be a CSFA, how long till you have till you have to recert? Like after how many years, is it 4yrs just like the cst?

[@SurgicalTechTips]

Just like CST 4 years. You will need to do 15 more credits as an FA though.

[@dawnburns8524]

I'm not sure what the credentials are of the person in the video are but some of the information that is being given is incorrect.Example the sterile person does not need to move the boom, the camera does that when the surgeon targets, also docking the camera arm first is not an option, it has to be docked first.

[@oyurcha1]

Sweet video, but why do you keep saying trocar, when there isn't one? (Trocar = tri plane needle tip)

[@CelticWolfyCub]

I know this is an "older" video, but it would seem like a lot of things that could go wrong are human user errors and not so much the robot itself, correct? It's amazing how far medical technology has come along, but the whole topic of robotic surgery scares me so much. I know for sure I'll need my gallbladder removed in the future due to gallstones and have been told that it's mostly done by robotic surgery now and I keep saying that I'll need to be knocked out before we even make it to the OR because I'm so terrified of anything robotic. It sounds stupid, but idk..It just doesn't sit well with me :s

[@rickbennington6105]

I've had two robotic surgeries done this is the first video I watched. For one thing there is definitely no finesse it's just wham bam and slam I feel like I'm watching my mechanic work on my BMW and as far as making mistakes that's why you sign a waiver if they kill you it's not their fault or injure you being a professional plumber all my life kind of wish I could have people sign papers so when I screwed up it wasn't my fault

[@anthonybruceplake]

OH MAN!!!! TMI TMI TMI )0( Help -- I did manage to last for 7:42 minutes but this got way too technical for even me. I am sure anyone in the medical field loved it. I just thought about the five incisional hernia operations I've had, the lap chole I had, and all the people I know who have had laparoscopic surgeries. I felt dizzy when you said doctors hit or punctured (I forget your exact words) hearts, livers, colons... AH ME - we know this, but, ya know, we don't want it verified by someone "in the know". I did check out a lap hole on youtube before surgery and I liked how the little gall bladder was maneuvered and put into a little bag LOL and pulled out of the body EEEKKK! On another note: Where did you get the scrubs ? I have a set of Greys Anatomy that are at least 8 years old. Where did you get the orange banded watch? All the very best to you and your family - Anthony in Dallas

[@SurgicalTechTips]

Our scrubs are provided and cleaned by the hospital, but I have heard grey's anatomy scrubs are quite nice. The watch is a Garmin Vivoactive amzn.to/2uw8pTq its great for gps usage for tracking my running and mountain biking, love it. I know this video was pretty technical, and it was meant to be haha. Kind of into the nitty gritty of robot CST knowledge with that one.

[@allagashandlulu]

haha i totally feel you on the "EEEK DONT ACCIDENTALLY PUNCTURE THE HEART" thing - i'm sitting here clutching my chest thinking about how complicated this all is and how lucky i am that there were no mishaps in my surgery ;)

[@jO-ox2xi]

0:06 bad "attitude" these are the hurdles you have to jump through

[@Mike9201984]

Davinci should toss you a few $Gs for your contributions

[@SurgicalTechTips]

Would be nice lol

[@mapleto1945]

I’m sure they would if he claim😜

[@LR-zf8tz]

As a non-medical person who may one day be in need of robotic surgery (as this seems to be the direction surgery is going), watching the complexity of all of this operation with man-machine, I can see how many errors and mistakes could be made by those who don't have the excellent skills and training and just practical experience could make. There are many errors made in surgeries the way it is, but adding in the complexity of a robot where the 'team' would all need to be specifically trained, to me, is rather frightening. Nurses rather than surgeons moving and placing things leaves a lot of room for errors. The other thing I wondered is that with this being so dependent on electricity and wifi, what if the signal drops (as happens so often with the Internet)? I also read that robotic surgeries take much, much longer than manual. How much risk does that pose for the patient being under anesthesia longer? Yikes... I know surgeons are training many hours on this, but if the rest of the team is doing the placement of instruments inside the body and risks of punctures, etc., that is scary.

[@mncoasterenthusiast2295]

DON’T GET ROBOTIC SURGERY! It is far more dangerous. He was probably paid by da Vinci to market the robot. A laparoscopic approach or even an open procedure would be better for you. Da Vinci lies about their crappy robot. Believe me, it it in your best interest to not get robotic surgery

[@kee-tu4cq]

I dk but my mom was very happy with her Da Vinci Pyeloplasty at Massgeneral. She only had 3 small hole incisions after, compared to a pretty large one she would have with an open procedure. Surgery only took about 30-60 mins longer with the robot and she was able to go home in 3 days vs a minimum 7 days with open. I feel like all surgery’s heavily depend on electricity that why they have back ups if the power should go out. Also if they absolutely had to they are able to switch to an open surgery.

[@hsparihar123]
