What is ROBBIN?

ROBBIN (Robotic Navigation Spine Surgery) is a robot-assisted spine surgery technology available at Premier Bintaro Hospital. This system combines:

1. Visual monitor for navigation
2. Robotic C arm 3D/CT scanner for accurate imaging
3. Patient sensor for anatomical registration

ROBBIN helps doctors place pedicle screws with high precision using robotic guidance based on scans of the patient's spine. So, in general, ROBBIN has three advantages compared to freehand surgery:

1. Accuracy: Robbin boasts up to 99% accuracy in implant placement.
2. Efficiency: Unlike humans, robots don't experience stress or fatigue even when dealing with severe patient conditions, including scoliosis with very severe curvatures.
3. Safety: Complications from spinal nerve injuries can be minimized.

ROBBIN Work Stages

1. The patient undergoes a scan first, which can be performed before surgery or intraoperatively.
2. The scan results are fed into the robotic system, allowing the robot to recognize the patient's spinal contour.
3. The implant placement is planned, allowing for precise placement down to the millimeter.
4. The robotic arm moves according to the planned implant placement, and the doctor simply follows the robot's instructions during implant placement.

Advantages of ROBBIN vs Manual Operation

Kesimpulan

ROBBIN is a significant breakthrough in spinal surgery, offering up to 99% accuracy, increased safety, and treatment efficiency. This technology is highly recommended for complex conditions like scoliosis, optimally preserving nerves and accelerating patient recovery.

Consult an orthopedic specialist if you have any spinal complaints to receive a proper evaluation and treatment.
