SS Innovations International (NASDAQ: SSII) announced that its subsidiary, the SS International Centre for Robotics Surgery (SSICRS), has graduated the inaugural class of its Cardiac Robotic Surgery Training program. The five-day course brought together 33 participants from seven countries and 16 international faculty members for classroom instruction, live surgical demonstrations and hands-on training using the company’s SSi Mantra surgical robotic system.
According to the press release, SSICRS plans to expand its educational offerings through additional condensed training programs covering multiple surgical specialties, including urology, gynecology, thoracic, colorectal, gastrointestinal and general surgery. The company said the training center combines modern lecture facilities, advanced simulation labs, tele-proctoring and online learning modules to support surgeon education and the broader adoption of robotic-assisted surgery.
The graduation of this first class marks a significant milestone for SS Innovations as it seeks to make robotic surgery more accessible globally. By training surgeons from diverse countries, the company is building a network of skilled practitioners who can utilize the SSi Mantra system, potentially increasing its adoption in emerging markets. The expansion into multiple surgical specialties suggests that SS Innovations is positioning itself as a comprehensive provider of robotic surgery solutions, moving beyond its initial focus on cardiac procedures.
SS Innovations develops the SSi Mantra surgical robotic system and a suite of SSi Mudra surgical instruments. The company, headquartered in India but incorporated in the U.S., aims to offer cost-effective robotic surgery options. The training program is a key component of its strategy to overcome barriers to adoption, such as the lack of trained surgeons. As robotic-assisted surgery becomes more prevalent, initiatives like SSICRS could help democratize access to advanced surgical techniques.
