GLENEAGLES Hospital Johor (GHJ) – a leading healthcare institution dedicated to innovation and patient care – has achieved a significant milestone in its journey towards advanced surgical solutions.
The launch of its cutting-edge robotic systems – the da Vinci Xi robotic surgical system – marks a transformative impact on the landscape of women’s healthcare in obstetrics and gynaecology (O&G) services.
The integration of the da Vinci Xi robotic systems at GHJ underscores the hospital’s commitment to providing versatile and state-of-the-art healthcare solutions.
The robotic-assisted surgeries emphasise GHJ’s unwavering dedication to delivering quality healthcare.
GHJ’s primary objective in incorporating robotic-assisted surgery is to optimise patient outcomes.
The advanced capabilities of the da Vinci Xi system empower GHJ’s O&G surgical teams to perform minimally-invasive procedures with increased precision.
This is particularly beneficial for women undergoing hysterectomy, myomectomy and complex cases, such as multiple uterine fibroids and deeply infiltrating endometriosis, ultimately resulting in fewer complications and shorter hospital stays for the patients.
The hospital’s O&G surgeons note that their patients have experienced significant benefits, including smaller incisions, minimal scarring and faster recovery, compared to traditional open surgery.
The da Vinci Xi system enables mothers with children and busy working women to return to their daily lives sooner.
Reduced post-operative pain and shorter hospital stays contribute to an overall enhanced patient experience.
At the core of this achievement is GHJ’s team of skilled and certified surgeons and nurses, who have received specialised training in robotic-assisted surgery.
Bringing a high standard of care to patients, their expertise combines the art of surgery with the precision of robotic technology, ensuring a seamless and effective approach to healthcare.
GHJ remains steadfast in staying at the forefront of medical innovation as the adoption of robotic-assisted surgery represents a pivotal element in the hospital’s ongoing efforts to provide patients with access to the latest advancements in medical technology, ensuring they receive the best possible care and treatment.
“GHJ will continue to deliver care par excellence to those who matter to us,” says GHJ chief executive officer and IHH Malaysia regional chief executive officer of southern and eastern hospitals Dr Kamal Amzan.
“This milestone is not the be-all and end-all, it simply marks the beginning of our journey as we continue to build the trust of our patients, who consistently choose us as their preferred healthcare partners.
“We will also continue to train our surgeons in other specialities to use da Vinci Xi, acknowledging its benefits to patients compared to conventional open surgery.
“The hospital aspires to be an education hub for doctors and nurses interested in training as certified robotic surgeons and nurses, contributing to building a better healthcare industry together.”
