LAKUMED hospital in Landshut-Achdorf to become
fifth Senhance hospital in Germany
Asensus Surgical, Inc. (NYSE American: ASXC), a medical device
company that is digitizing the interface between the surgeon and
patient to pioneer a new era of Performance-Guided Surgery™, today
announced LAKUMED hospitals has entered into an agreement to lease
and utilize a Senhance® Surgical System. The system will be
utilized at the Landshut-Achdorf hospital which is located in the
Landshut region, just outside of Munich, Germany.
“We are very pleased that LAKUMED hospitals have chosen to
utilize a Senhance Surgical System,” said Anthony Fernando, Asensus
Surgical President and CEO. “Germany is the largest surgical market
in Europe, and has grown into the largest European country for
Senhance in terms of users, surgeries and hospitals. German
surgeons are very advanced in minimally invasive surgery, and
Senhance is an ideal tool to support their continued
advancement.”
Asensus Surgical's technology platform, Senhance® Surgical
System, is the first of its kind digital laparoscopic platform that
leverages augmented intelligence to provide unmatched performance
and patient outcomes through machine learning. Senhance goes beyond
the typical surgical robotic systems, providing surgical assurance
through haptic feedback, eye-tracking camera control, and 3D
visualization, and is the first platform to offer 3 mm instruments
(the smallest instrument available in the world on a robotic
surgical platform).
“The Senhance System is a welcome addition to our program in
surgery,” said Prof. Dr. med. Johannes Schmidt, hospital medical
director and surgeon in the department of general, abdominal and
thoracic surgery. “We are particularly pleased to offer
ultra-minimally invasive surgery with robotic instruments as small
as 3 mm, and are driven to help pioneer the new capabilities of
Performance-Guided Surgery to the benefit of our patients.”
“Our hospital is committed to being a leader in combining the
most advanced medical technologies with the greatest skill and
caring of our surgeons and staff,” said Jakob Fuchs, CEO of
Lakumed. “We evaluated the Senhance Surgical System and were
impressed with its ability to add performance capabilities to our
precise and delicate surgeries.”
