Designed for multi-quadrant

reach

Computer assisted, streamlined
set up
Compatible surgical simulator

Why Xi Matters
Despite my obvious interest in minimally
invasive surgery I had resisted adopting previous
da Vinci platforms because of what I felt were
limitations. The da Vinci Xi platform is a game
changer for me. I now feel that this technology
will not just equal my standard laparoscopic
abilities but actually will allow me to reach new
levels in providing surgical care to my patients.

We estimate 2 4 million procedures available
for products on the market today in countries
for which we have clearances
Over time, opportunity OUS will be greater
than U.S.
Roughly half of opportunity based on
underlying cancer as cause

Clinical and Economic Validation

Overview of the Database
To date, there are approximately 8,500 peer-reviewed clinical
publications studying da Vinci use
Approximately 99% of these studies are independent of ISI
Of these, approximately 1,400 are comparative studies
In 2014, 1,600 new studies were published, of which ~400
were comparative
There are now approximately 25 government sponsored
assessments of da Vinci surgery spanning ~14 countries
