Bengaluru, 29th July 2022: In the endeavour to redefine healthcare and offer the most advanced treatment options for patients, SPARSH Group of Hospitals has unveiled a series of initiatives as a part of its technology adoption and digital transformation journey.
SPARSH has introduced five key healthcare technologies that comprises the following
- Mako: A Robotic Arm used for Joint Replacement Surgeries that enables surgeons to deliver more predictable surgical outcomes with increased accuracy.
- 3D Printing Technology: The future of high accuracy surgery and customised implants is a game changer in surgical intervention.
- O-arm and StealthStation S8: A high-precision surgical imaging and navigation system for brain surgeries: The O-arm System provides high-quality 2D and 3D images which are automatically synced to the StealthStation S8 Navigation system. Using these high-definition intraoperative scans, the StealthStation S8 navigation system allows surgeons to visualise the patient’s anatomy in 3D and localise instruments and implants throughout the procedure.
- Kinevo 900 – 3D Microscope: The Kinevo 900 is a robotic visualisation system that offers a unique micro-inspection tool and surgeon-controlled robotics.
- SPARSH patient portal app: An integrated patient app to store all patient information, services, reports, and test results. Patients can also schedule virtual doctor consultations, download e-prescription and make payments through a wallet available within the app.
Commenting on the new initiatives, Dr. Sharan Shivaraj Patil, Chairman, SPARSH Hospital, said, “At SPARSH, we have been early adopters of cutting-edge technology that can offer precision, faster recovery, and better experience for our patients. We believe that technology-assisted procedures unquestionably offer more precision and accuracy as compared to conventional manual surgeries. The expertise and acumen of our clinicians, coupled with the finesse and meticulousness offered by smart tech tools will allow us to offer the highest quality of care to our patients. We will continue to introduce many more such initiatives that have the potential to reinvent healthcare”
Dr. Ashwath Narayan CN, Minister of Higher Education, IT & BT, Govt of Karnataka, said, “As the IT capital of the country, Bengaluru has been a leader in introducing and implementing technology-driven solutions that have transformed people’s lives. In the field of healthcare, technology has the potential to improve care quality and create easier accessibility. I would like to congratulate Dr. Sharan and his team for implementing these solutions. We need more initiatives like this that can help Bengaluru become a sought-after destination for advanced medical procedures”
