Research Notes on Robotic Heart Surgery


Robot assisted heart surgery is also known as closed chest heart surgery. This is a minimally invasive procedure performed by cardiac surgeons. They use a computer to control the instruments held in robotic arms to operate on the heart.1

Fast Facts:

  • Allows for smaller incisions and more precise movements.1
  • A year after having the robotic bypass performed, all 19 patients from the pilot study remained free of complications and of angina.2
  • The procedure reduces risks of infection, decreases post operative pain, and allows for quicker recovery.3
