With quicker recovery times after robotic surgery, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde said it would “enable us to treat more patients more quickly, and with better outcomes”. “I wanted to start hoovering when I got home from hospital but my daughter made sure I rested up. It just shows you how great this is for recovery.”Prof Roxburgh said: “Robotic surgery has already shown huge improvements in patient care and recovery times.”
“In addition to this, it helps reduce complications, imaging assessments, blood transfusions, readmission rates and infections.Neil McCallum, director for NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde’s north sector, said: “This innovative technology allows us to reduce the amount of time a patient has to stay in hospital following their surgery.
