About Intuitive Surgical, Inc.
Intuitive Surgical is engaged in the designing,
manufacturing and marketing of the da Vinci Surgical Systems. The
Company's da Vinci Surgical Systems consist of a surgeon's console,
a patient-side cart, a vision system, wristed instruments and surgical
accessories. The da Vinci Surgical System controls Intuitive Surgical
endoscopic instruments, including rigid endoscopes, blunt and sharp
endoscopic dissectors, scissors, scalpels, forceps/pickups, needle
holders, endoscopic retractors, electrocautery, ultrasonic cutters
and accessories during a range of surgical procedures. The da Vinci
Surgical System translates the surgeon's natural hand movements
on instrument controls at the console into corresponding micro-movements
of instruments positioned inside the patient through small puncture
incisions, or ports.
The Company's da Vinci Surgical System provides the surgeon with
the intuitive control, range of motion, tissue manipulation capability
and three-dimensional (3-D) vision characteristic of open surgery,
while simultaneously allowing the surgeon to work through the
small ports of minimally invasive surgery (MIS).
As of December 31, 2007, Intuitive Surgical had sold 800 of its da Vinci Surgical Systems.
