Company Background Information
Overview
In 2016 Dr. John Uecker, a General Surgeon at Dell Seton Medical Center at the University of Texas, approached Dr. Chris Rylander, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin Cockrell School of Engineering, with a problem that he felt had no effective solution. Dr. Uecker performed about 350 laparoscopic surgeries a year and was incredibly frustrated by having to constantly clean the laparoscopic camera. During the course of a laparoscopic procedure he would have to repeatedly break concentration, remove the camera from the patient's body, clean the camera, and then re-insert the scope into the patient and find his position to resume the surgery. Dr. Uecker believed that longer surgeries, greater patient risk, higher cost, and surgical frustration had to have a solution.
