The symposium, moderated by Near East University Hospital Chief Physician Prof. Dr. Salih Müjdat Balkan, featured presentations from esteemed experts in various surgical fields, including Prof. Dr. Cengiz Bolcal, Prof. Dr. Hasan Bektaş, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Arzu Karaman Koç, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Fuat Kızılay, and Prof. Dr. Müfit Cemal Yenen. These experts shared their experiences and insights into the transformative potential of robotic surgery in advancing healthcare sustainability goals.
The event, attended by Mehmet Soykurt, Member of the Board of Trustees of Near East Enterprises and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Hospitals, and Prof. Dr. Müfit Cemal Yenen, highlighted the commitment of institutions like Near East University Hospital to embracing innovative technologies that not only improve patient care but also contribute to a more sustainable healthcare ecosystem.
One of the key aspects of robotic surgery’s importance in sustainability is its ability to perform less invasive procedures. With smaller incisions compared to traditional surgery methods, robotic surgery reduces patients’ recovery times and hospital stays, leading to more efficient use of medical resources and facilities. This not only improves patient outcomes but also reduces the environmental footprint associated with longer hospital stays and higher resource consumption.
Moreover, robotic surgery systems contribute to resource conservation by minimizing blood loss during procedures, reducing the need for transfusions, and optimizing the utilization of medical supplies. The precision and control afforded by robotic surgery technology also result in higher surgical success rates, fewer complications, and reduced rates of re-operation, further enhancing the sustainability of healthcare practices.
In addition to its environmental benefits, robotic surgery supports the development of surgical skills and expertise among healthcare professionals. By providing a platform for continuous learning and skill enhancement, robotic surgery systems empower surgeons to deliver high-quality care and improve patient outcomes over time.
As the field of robotic surgery continues to evolve, initiatives like the “Da Vinci Robotic Surgery Northern Cyprus Symposium” play a crucial role in shaping the future of surgical practices and advancing sustainability goals in healthcare delivery. Through ongoing collaboration and knowledge exchange, healthcare professionals can harness the potential of robotic surgery to create a more sustainable and efficient healthcare system for the benefit of patients and society alike.
