Each year, hundreds of thousands of American patients are operated upon using the da Vinci surgery robot, yet the benefits of the surgical robot are still unproven. Caught up in an “arms race” for the best technology, many American hospitals have shouldered the great expense of offering da Vinci robot surgery, even without scientific proof that da Vinci robot surgery is better for patients.
Intuitive Surgical, the company that markets the da Vinci surgery robot, reaps massive and ever-growing profits from the device, while patients face serious medical consequences as a result of the product’s shortcomings. Hospitals using Intuitive Surgical’s marketing materials to promote the device have contributed to the problem, misleading patients about the benefits of robot surgery.
Intuitive Surgical, making false and generalized claims about da Vinci robot surgery and failing to disclose important health risks, has made record profits from da Vinci robot surgery. How can such a thing be allowed to happen in the United States of America, home to the world’s most prominent medical institutions, doctors and research facilities?
