We continue to support @tricitymedicalcenter in setting the standard for breakthroughs in patient care. Recently, we purchased new pieces of equipment into our Operating Rooms, and we are proud to introduce two of them.
The first is Mako 4; a Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery System developed by Stryker and utilized for total or partial hip and knee replacements. However, it is now expanding into spinal cases.
With the addition of Mako 4, Tri-City is the first hospital in California to use the Mako Robotic-Arm for spine procedures.
We are also the first hospital in San Diego, thanks to our second addition, to utilize the Q Guidance System with Copilot, another innovative system developed by Stryker.
Dr. Bayan Aghdasi & Dr. Payam Moazzaz, two of the six surgeons leading our spine program at Tri-City, are pictured here with the equipment.
When used in tandem, Q Guidance, Copilot, and Mako allow our surgeons to develop tailored care plans for every patient through advanced 3D imaging.
Thank you all for your support and helping us make a difference in our community!
