Advancing Surgery at ASCs
Moon Surgical announced a major milestone with the successful treatment of the first 20 patients at Surgeon’s Point Surgery Center in Cedar Park, Texas, using the Maestro™ digital surgical assistant. This marks the first use of the Maestro system in an Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) setting.
Diverse Surgical Procedures
The initial procedures included:
- Cholecystectomy
- Gastric sleeve and bypass
- Lap band removal
Surgeons Dr. Sashi Ganta, Dr. Eric Acheson, Dr. Eric Lough, and Dr. Nancy Marquez performed the surgeries, with Dr. Ganta leading the center’s first Maestro case.
Benefits of the Maestro System
Maestro provides:
- Reliable Assistance: Reducing variability in case times and improving efficiency when surgical assistants are inconsistent.
- Ease of Use: Intuitive design enables rapid learning and seamless integration into ASC workflows.
- Predictability: Ensures controlled instrumentation, enhancing resource utilization and economics in a fast-paced environment.
“Maestro streamlines case execution and surgical processes, fitting well into the efficient setup of an ASC,” said Dr. Ganta.
