MISSO will reduce this investment by ~66 per cent, making these surgeries more accessible and affordableMeril, an India-based global medical device company, announced the launch of its advanced surgical robotic technology, MISSO. MISSO is a high-quality robotic system entirely made in India that provides surgeons with real-time assistance during knee replacement procedures with unparalleled accuracy. Indian hospitals currently depend on imported robotic technology for knee replacement surgeries which requires a significant investment. MISSO will reduce this investment by ~66 per cent, making these surgeries more accessible and affordable. The versatile technology of MISSO can be adapted for other joint surgeries in future.Manish Deshmukh, Head of Marketing, India & Global, at Meril, says, “Meril is pleased to bring MISSO, which has the potential to democratise robotic knee replacement surgery in India. With MISSO, we aim to address these challenges by providing the platform indigenously alongside an ecosystem of training and support that will make robotic surgery highly accessible, not only in metros but also in Tier II and Tier III cities."MISSO has received approval from CDSCO and is queued up for CE and US FDA approvals in times to come.
