da Vinci 5
Surgery, transformed.
Our most advanced and integrated robotic surgery system–ever.
We created the da Vinci 5 platform with the goal of helping surgeons provide the best minimally invasive surgery to as many patients as possible. Redesigned from the inside out, da Vinci 5 brings more than 150 design innovations and 10,000x the computing power1 to deliver greater surgeon autonomy,2 more streamlined OR workflow, and advanced data analytics. With an eye toward improving patient outcomes now and into the future, we have enabled real-time collaboration and state‑of‑the‑art analytic tools that deliver objective insights to personalize surgeon learning.
Surgical Senses
Designed for better outcomes by enhancing surgical senses
Better patient outcomes: this goal underscores everything we do. We aim to deliver these outcomes through enhanced surgical senses—by enabling Force Feedback technology, the best da Vinci vision system, and improved ergonomics.3
Force Feedback: first-of-its-kind technology
Surgeons with varying experience levels can deliver up to 43% less force on tissue4 by sensing the push and pull at the instrument tip through Force Feedback technology. The instrument sensors are able to generate post-operative, objective performance measurements on tissue for personal and training insights. Surgeons who were early in their learning curve made fewer errors, performed faster suturing, and with less tissue trauma when using instruments with Force Feedback technology during simulated suturing tasks.5
The best da Vinci vision system
The da Vinci 5 vision system delivers our best, most realistic 3D image—with better color and resolution.3
Our most ergonomic system ever
An immersive, reengineered console with a greater range of motion and wider range of ergonomic settings3 designed to offer more comfort8 for the surgeon.
Operational Efficiency
More surgeon autonomy2 and streamlined workflow
Over 150 design innovations may lead to reduced procedure times9 with potential to increase throughput. Greater surgeon autonomy2 and streamlined workflow can help hospitals address staffing challenges. The result: more operational efficiency – critical in helping you scale da Vinci surgery across the patients you serve.
Greater surgeon autonomy2
Through component integration and control at their fingertips, surgeons can manage all components needed for surgery from their console, helping to reduce care team workload.10
Streamlined workflows
Da Vinci 5 is easy to learn, with simplified setup, guided tool change, and task automation. A universal user interface extends across all three system components to enhance care team experience.
Reduced procedure time9
Da Vinci 5 refinements benefit new users—as well as expert users. Over 150 design innovations may result in increased throughput and the potential to add da Vinci surgeries beyond traditional OR timetables.
My Intuitive+
Objective insights, personalized action—enabled by My Intuitive+
Digital tools currently available through My Intuitive+ allow surgeons to collaborate in real time and use surgical video and data collected to objectively understand surgical performance and receive personalized training.
Telepresence: bridge the gap between distance and connection
Enable real-time case observation, collaboration, and mentoring with Telepresence. Surgeons can schedule a session prior to a case for enhanced learning, as well as stay up-to-date with the latest surgical approaches across the da Vinci community.
Case Insights: understand surgical performance like never before
Know more about personal and program performance through da Vinci 5’s rich data set and objective skills assessment. Case insights uses AI to evaluate da Vinci system data, kinematic movement, and video—creating objective insights to help surgeons elevate their skills, with the goal of improving patient outcomes.

The Intuitive Surgical Endoscopic Instrument Control System (da Vinci Surgical System, Model IS5000) shall assist in the accurate control of Intuitive Surgical Endoscopic Instruments including rigid endoscopes, blunt and sharp endoscopic dissectors, scissors, scalpels, forceps/pick-ups, needle holders, endoscopic retractors, electrocautery and accessories for endoscopic manipulation of tissue, including grasping, cutting, blunt and sharp dissection, approximation, ligation, electrocautery, suturing, and delivery and placement of microwave and cryogenic ablation probes and accessories, during urologic surgical procedures, general laparoscopic surgical procedures, gynecologic laparoscopic surgical procedures and general thoracoscopic surgical procedures. The system is indicated for adult use.
It is intended to be used by trained physicians in an operating room environment in accordance with the representative, specific procedures set forth in the Professional Instructions for Use.
Contraindication
Use of the force feedback needle driver is contraindicated in hysterectomy and myomectomy due to the risk of vaginal bleeding requiring hospital readmission and/or the need for additional procedures. The use of non-force feedback needle drivers is recommended for suturing in these procedures.
Precaution for Representative Uses
The demonstration of safety and effectiveness for the representative-specific procedures was based on evaluation of the device as a surgical tool and did not include evaluation of outcomes related to the treatment of cancer (overall survival, disease-free survival, local recurrence) or treatment of the patient’s underlying disease or condition. Device usage in all surgical procedures should be guided by the clinical judgment of an adequately trained surgeon.
