What must be done after surgery with the VersaOne system?

After surgery with the VersaOne system, one of the critical steps is to remove the cannula and then extract the RES (reusable endoscopic system). This process is essential to ensure that all surgical instruments and materials are properly removed from the patient's body, thereby reducing the risk of complications such as infection or internal damage.

Removing the cannula allows for easier extraction of the RES, facilitating a clean and effective conclusion to the surgical procedure. It's important for the surgical team to follow this sequence carefully to maintain the integrity of the surgical site and ensure that no residual material remains, which could compromise patient safety and recovery.

This specific step focuses on the importance of proper surgical technique, as well as patient safety protocols immediately following the procedure. Other options, such as re-insufflating the abdomen or leaving the trocar in place, do not align with standard postoperative procedures following the use of this surgical system. Inspecting for external bleeding is also vital but occurs as part of a broader postoperative assessment rather than being specific to the proper handling of the VersaOne system.
