Why DaNi the Surgical Robot?

The state-of-the-art robot surgical robot replicates the surgeon's hand movements in real time. It lets surgeons perform complex procedures with unmatched precision and control with minimally invasive techniques. This means smaller incisions, less pain, and quicker recovery times for patients.

What Your Support Means for FNQ: Read Our Five Pledges

1.  Improved Patient Outcomes:
With DaNi, patients will experience faster recovery times, less complications, and shorter hospital stays. This reduces the risk of post-operative issues and enhances overall patient quality of life, benefiting the entire community. 


2.  Increased Accessibility and Equity:
Having an on-site surgical robotic system at Cairns Hospital will increase local access to robotic surgeries for public patients. This means our community will have more access to the most advanced surgical care when they need it most. 


3.  Cutting-Edge Technology:
DaNi, the surgical robot, brings state-of-the-art technology to Cairns Hospital, enabling surgeons to perform complex procedures with unmatched precision and control. 


4.  Attracting and Retaining Top Talent:
Having the latest surgical technology will help attract and retain outstanding doctors and surgeons in FNQ. This will help build a stronger, more skilled medical community dedicated to providing the best care. 


5.  Innovative and Comprehensive Care:
The surgical robot is part of continuous innovation in surgical practices.  It will expand the hospital’s capabilities, allowing for minimally invasive procedures across multiple specialties, including urology, gynaecology, colorectal, and general surgery.
