SS Innovations reinforces India's position as a hub for technological innovation in healthcare using SSI Mantra

SS Innovations, the developer of India’s first indigenous surgical robotic system, dedicated to making advanced robotic surgeries cost-effective and globally accessible, has successfully performed the first-ever robotic cardiac surgery in Indonesia.

This achievement not only marks a significant milestone for the island nation but also highlights the transformative potential of SSI Mantra, SS Innovations’ state-of-the-art surgical robotic system, and reinforces the company’s commitment to making advanced robotic surgeries cost-effective and globally accessible.

The procedures, a bilateral IMA CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Graft), and ASD Repair and Beating Heart Totally Endoscopic Coronary Artery Bypass (TECAB), were conducted at the Harapan Kita National Cardiac Hospital in Jakarta. This marks a significant milestone for both the hospital and Indonesia's healthcare sector, showcasing the advancements made possible through the use of SSI Mantra.

Further, at the core of this accomplishment is D. Sudhir Srivastava, the visionary founder, chairman, and CEO of SS Innovations. Renowned globally for his expertise in robotic cardiac surgery, Dr Srivastava personally performed the first Beating Heart Totally Endoscopic Coronary Artery Bypass (TECAB) in Indonesia, accompanied by his team from SS Innovations and the dedicated support staff of Harapan Kita led by Dr Dudy Hanafy. 

The launch of the robotic cardiac surgery programme at Harapan Kita represents the beginning of a new era in cardiac care in Indonesia. Over the next few days, SS Innovations, in collaboration with Harapan Kita’s surgical team, will perform 7-8 additional robotic-assisted procedures, including LIMA, BIMA, Beating Heart Totally Endoscopic Coronary Artery Bypass (TECAB), and ASD Repair.  This collaboration aims to elevate the standard of cardiac care in the region.

The successful completion of the first cardiac surgery in Indonesia positions SSI Mantra as a key player in the future of surgical robotics.
