A patent application by the inventors Devengenzo, Roman L. (San Jose, CA, US); Diolaiti, Nicola (Menlo Park, CA, US); Duval, Eugene F. (Menlo Park, CA, US); Ettinger, Gary C. (Cupertino, CA, US); Gomez, Daniel H. (Sunnyvale, CA, US); Schena, Bruce Michael (Menlo Park, CA, US), filed on October 5, 2023, was made available online on January 25, 2024, according to news reporting originating from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx correspondents. This patent application has not been assigned to a company or institution. The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background information supplied by the inventors: "Minimally invasive medical techniques are intended to reduce the amount of extraneous tissue that is damaged during diagnostic or surgical procedures, thereby reducing patient recovery time, discomfort, and deleterious side effects. One effect of minimally invasive surgery, for example, is reduced post-operative hospital recovery times. Because the average hospital stay for a standard open surgery is typically significantly longer than the average stay for an analogous minimally invasive surgery, increased use of minimally invasive techniques could save millions of dollars in hospital costs each year. While many of the surgeries performed each year in the United States could potentially be performed in a minimally invasive manner, only a portion of the current surgeries use these advantageous techniques due to limitations in minimally invasive surgical instruments and the additional surgical training involved in mastering them.
