Bengaluru, October 17, 2024 โ 
Following the adoption of the most advanced robotics systems, SPARSH Hospitals, a trailblazer in healthcare innovation, today moved a step ahead with the launch of Indiaโs first advanced on-site 3D Printing Lab at its Infantry Road facility. The lab introduces cutting-edge 3D printing technology that will revolutionise orthopaedic and personalised medical care by offering comprehensive solutions under one roofโfrom scanning to the creation of final customised models.
Opening the Lab, Dr. Sharan Shivaraj Patil, Chairman and Chief Orthopedic Surgeon, SPARSH Hospitals, said, ” We have always been at the forefront of innovation, and are committed to bringing the most advanced technologies in orthopaedics available internationally. Today marks another milestone in our โAuthority on Orthopaedicโ mission. We are proud to introduce not only of Karnatakaโs but Indiaโs first on-site advanced 3 D Printing Lab that offers the entire printing solutions with advanced technology under one roof.
โAfter the adoption of robotic systems, today we are taking a big leap forward with our advanced 3D printing lab and this move underpins our focus on technology, expertise, and experience. Tech-enabled 3D printing lab will be a game-changer for personalised patient care in India. It will allow us to design custom-made prosthetics, implants, and deliver surgical models that precisely match each patientโs unique anatomy. With the adoption of both 3D printing and robotic technologies, we will be setting new standards for surgical precision and patient outcomes,โ added Dr. Patil.
The 3D Printing Lab and robotics represent a significant leap forward in healthcare by providing patient-specific surgical solutions that enable surgeons to plan and perform surgeries with unprecedented accuracy. The lab will dramatically improve surgical precision, reduce recovery times, and minimise long-term healthcare costs. The facilityโs new 3D printing lab integrates advanced technologies such as custom prosthetics designing and streamlining processes to make healthcare more efficient and affordable for patients. The lab is designed to significantly reduce costs and time for both patients and medical professionals by offering all servicesโfrom scanning to post-processingโunder one roof.
During the press conference, Dr. Patil, while showing the lab and advanced robotic systems to reporters, said, โThese two technologies, 3D printing and robotics, are advancing the capabilities of orthopaedic surgeries and beyond. They enable greater precision in planning and executing complex procedures, resulting in better outcomes for patients, faster recovery, and a significant step forward in personalised healthcare.โ
SPARSH Hospitals also showcased some of the most advanced technologies transforming orthopaedic care and surgery. The 3D printing solution was also displayed through the Virtual Reality (VR) system. Advanced robotic systems were also showcased, reflecting SPARSH Hospitalsโ commitment to integrating cutting-edge technology across multiple disciplines.
SPARSH Hospitalsโ investment in these new technologies is a testament to its ongoing commitment to technology, innovation, expertise, and experience, which help it excel in providing world-class healthcare services. By leading the way with both 3D printing and robotic systems, SPARSH Hospitals is poised to transform patient care in India, offering the most advanced solutions for orthopedic and personalized healthcare.
From a surgeonโs perspective, Dr. Patil said, โThe ability to create detailed anatomical models before surgery is a major advantage for surgeons. Not only does it enhance pre-surgical planning, but it also allows us to rehearse procedures, reducing surgical time and minimising risks. For young surgeons, this lab will be an incredible tool for hands-on training, offering unparalleled learning opportunities.โGoing forward, the 3D printing lab at SPARSH Hospitals is not limited to current technologies but is actively exploring future innovations such as the creation of artificial organs, expanding its role in medical research and bioengineering. These advancements will not only transform the way surgeries are performed but will also contribute to future breakthroughs in personalised medical treatments.
