The Company filed data from the completed clinical trial with the aim of showcasing safety and effectiveness and supporting the system\u2019s ability to perform a variety of procedures. Given OTTAVA\u2019s novel architecture and differentiated technological capabilities, the company filed a De Novo classification request and is targeting an indication covering multiple procedures in general surgery within the upper abdomen, such as gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, small bowel resection and hiatal hernia repair.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThe IDE study builds on a significant body of preclinical evidence we have generated demonstrating the impact of the OTTAVA system and provides critical clinical evidence on the system performance,\u201d said Peter Schulam, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer, MedTech, Johnson &amp; Johnson. \u201cSurgeon investigators across several hospitals led this important study to further clinical evidence in support of minimally invasive, robotic-assisted surgery for the benefit of clinical teams, hospitals, and patients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Second clinical trial approved in hernia repair<br \/>\n<br \/><\/b>OTTAVA is designed as a multi-specialty soft-tissue surgery robot, supporting a broad range of procedures across patient anatomy and surgical specialties, including the most complex surgeries that require a multi-quadrant approach.
