The VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution versus Mako®A comparison of system compactness1–2BackgroundSpace in the operating room (OR) is a valuable commodity, one that should not be compromised or wasted. Because certain robotic-assisted system equipment can take up much-needed space in the OR and limit room to move for the OR sta, it is advantageous to incorporate a system that minimizes space requirements to maximize surgical eciencies.MethodologyThe dimensions of the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution were compared to Mako, which included carts, robotic arms, arrays, cameras, and other components. The comparison was based on specications found in the RIO® Technical User Guide. The VELYS Robotic-Assisted SolutionWith a considerably smaller footprint, the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution provides more space for the surgical team to maneuver and operate.All products may not be available and/or approved or cleared by all global regulatory authorities.
