Mexico’s hybrid operating room minimizes risks in surgeries using the latest technology

EFE.- Thanks to the high-tech equipment and the multidisciplinary medical group, the hybrid minimally invasive center is the only one of its kind in central-western Mexico and allows to perform Complex surgeries with less risk of complications and faster patient recovery.

This space of the Hospital Puerta de Hierro in Guadalajara, the capital of the state of Jalisco, is equipped with an automated arc system to obtain 3D images in real time of any part of the body, Plus the millimeter precision system Which allows access to the depths of each organ without surgical intervention or causing injury.

however, The operating room helps doctors plan and perform surgeries in cardiology, neurology, endoscopy, orthopedics, oncology and even pediatrics and gynecology.and also has an alternative hemodynamic area – to monitor arteries and blood flow – completely sterile to care for two patients at the same time, in case of emergency.

“Being a mixed operating room, which is the only one of its kind in the region, It not only allows us to perform minimally invasive or closed surgeries, but also allows us to perform conventional surgeries with greater precision. Because we have the support of a robotic arm that allows us to intervene without any failure,” said Dr. Salvador Romero Vargas, who specializes in spinal surgery.

In an interview with the media, he explained that doctors in this operating room get accurate pictures of where they are performing the intervention.

For example, in patients with a herniated disc, the equipment allows specialists to know precisely the distance between the skin and the site of the intervention, the angles and the distance between vital structures to know how to insert the needles and to ensure that there are no complications.

The precision is in millimeters, and we also have 3D images to chart the procedures, Which is done by needles, they are not open surgeries and do not open a single centimeter of the skin and solve the problem for patients.”

In turn, cardiologist Alejandro Pacheco confirmed this The hybrid operating room allows for a 50% reduction in surgeries, depending on the complexity of the intervention It reduces the length of stay for the patient who can return to his normal life on the same day or in a maximum period of 24 hours.

In addition, the high-tech equipment allows uninterrupted surgery to perform certain diagnostic procedures, as well as the fact that specialists can perform a surgical evaluation in real time to monitor any bleeding or irregularities in the procedure.

Any patient requiring a specialized surgical procedure, including those in the process of having a stroke, can be operated on at this mixed center, which has so far received just over 1,200 procedures.
