Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], August 19:<\/b> Sakra World Hospital proudly announces a landmark achievement becoming the first hospital in Karnataka to perform over 550 robotic cardiac surgeries and the fastest centre worldwide to reach this milestone, as validated by official Da Vinci surgical system data. This feat was accomplished in under three years, with an impressive year-on-year growth of 40%, placing Sakra at the forefront of global innovation in minimally invasive cardiac care.<\/span><\/p>\n

Robotic cardiac surgery is transforming the treatment of heart disease. While conventional open-heart surgery typically requires 8\u201310 days of hospital stay and 2\u20133 months for full recovery, patients at Sakra undergoing robotic cardiac procedures are often discharged within 3\u20134 days, with most returning to normal life in just 2\u20133 weeks. The benefits minimal pain, negligible blood loss, faster mobilization, reduced antibiotic use, and smaller incisions \u2013 have made this advanced approach the preferred choice for patients from across India and abroad.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the past three years, Sakra has built one of India\u2019s most sought-after robotic cardiac surgery programs. Approximately 30\u201340% of patients come from outside Bangalore, including around 10% from international destinations. The program has successfully treated patients ranging from 15 to 84 years of age, delivering consistently safe, precise, and life-changing outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Highlighting the human impact of this technology, Dr. Adil Sadiq, Director and Head \u2013 Cardio Thoracic and Vascular Surgery (CTVS) at Sakra World Hospital, Bengaluru shared the story of a recent patient:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cA 78-year-old man from Gulbarga came to us after being refused surgery by multiple major centres, including those in metropolitan cities. He had severely reduced heart pumping power, was frail, had kidney issues with a single functioning kidney, and was not fit for angioplasty. Despite the risks, our team took on the challenge using robotic surgery. The procedure was successful, he recovered well, and was able to return home \u2014 something that would have been nearly impossible with conventional surgery. Stories like his are why we push the boundaries of what\u2019s possible.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Adil added, \u201cCrossing the 550 robotic cardiac surgery mark faster than any centre globally is a remarkable achievement, reflecting the exceptional skill, dedication, and innovation of our entire cardiac team. This milestone is more than just a number \u2013 it stands as a testament to the precision, teamwork, and patient-first approach that define our practice. We are immensely proud of this accomplishment and remain committed to pushing the frontiers of cardiac surgery for the benefit of every patient who walks through our doors.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the past decade, Sakra has emerged as one of the few centres worldwide to rapidly adopt and master this highly specialized surgical technology, powered by the advanced Da Vinci robotic system. Patients from across India and abroad continue to choose Sakra for its unmatched expertise, proven outcomes, and commitment to delivering world-class cardiac care.<\/span><\/p>\n
