Due to the rising incidence of chronic cardiovascular diseases, on account of the sedentary lifestyle and soaring geriatric population, the adoption of surgical robotic systems is expected to boom in the healthcare settings across the world, in the coming years. Surgical robotic systems are extensively used for the treatment of multiple types of cardiovascular diseases and ailments, with minimal pain and invasion. Owing to their high precision, these systems are experiencing rising popularity in several countries around the world.

Due to the above-mentioned factor, the global surgical robotic system market is expected to demonstrate substantial growth over the next few years. Surgical robots are controlled and managed by surgeons via computers and they perform surgeries with the help of robotic arms. A robotically assisted surgical (RAS) device is, basically, a computer-assisted surgical device that allows the surgeon to leverage advanced software for moving and controlling surgical instruments through one (minimally invasive) or multiple incisions in the patient’s body, for a wide array of surgical procedures.

Surgical robotic systems are widely used in a plethora of applications such as gallbladder removal, hysterectomy, coronary artery bypass surgeries, hip replacement, mitral valve repair, and partial or total kidney removal. Out of these applications, the coronary artery bypass surgeries are currently registering the highest adoption of surgical robotic systems. This is mainly attributed to the rising prevalence of graft surgeries and chronic heart diseases across the world. Such systems are incorporated in surgeon clinics and hospitals. Of these, the hospitals recorded the highest adoption of these robotic systems for various surgical procedures in the past.

The robotization and digitization of medical instruments are the biggest trends currently being observed in the surgical robotic system market. Since the last few years, the surgical robotic technology has been advancing at a rapid rate across the globe. Moreover, the increasing commercialization rate of these systems, owing to their several advantages over the conventionally performed surgical procedures, has significantly boosted the operational efficiency of various healthcare settings such as hospitals, throughout the world. As a result, there has been a massive push toward the robotization and digitization of cardiovascular medical instruments and procedures.

The main factors responsible for the large-scale usage of these systems in North America are the wide-scale utilization of these robotic systems for cardiovascular diagnosis and therapeutic procedures in specialty clinics and hospitals all around the world. In addition to this, many countries in the region offer the provision of insurance for robotic surgical procedures, which in turn, contribute toward the growing popularity of these surgeries.

Therefore, it can be said without any doubt that due to the rising incidence of chronic heart and cardiovascular diseases and ailments and the increasing incorporation of technologically advanced procedures in healthcare settings, the demand for surgical robotic systems will surge in the coming years.
