Introducing the “Make in Vietnam” medical robot, pioneering the smart hospital model

At the Exhibition "Outstanding achievements in the health and education sector" held on September 16 at the National Assembly House, a side event of the National Conference to disseminate and implement 4 Resolutions of the Politburo , Vinmec Healthcare System made a strong impression with two breakthrough technology products: VinMotion Motion One smart medical robot and 3D technology applied in clinical practice.

General Secretary To Lam visited the Vinmec healthcare system's exhibition area at the Exhibition.

These are not only achievements bearing the mark of “Make in Vietnam”, but also affirm Vinmec’s steady progress in the journey of building a smart hospital model, towards modern, precise and humane healthcare.

The robot impresses with its natural communication ability and friendly expression, and can receive and support hundreds of customers every day, from welcoming, guiding, answering questions to connecting patients with specialized medical care services.

Putting VinMotion robots into operation as "medical staff" in the reception area not only contributes to optimizing hospital operations but also brings a completely new experience to patients.

General Director of Vinmec Healthcare System, Prof. Dr. Tran Trung Dung shared, we aim to build a smart hospital chain model, where robots can communicate naturally and support medical staff in repetitive tasks.

This is a strategic move that opens up the future, when artificial intelligence, robots and big data converge to create personalized, comprehensive medical experiences, while preserving humanistic values in healthcare.

Also within the framework of the exhibition, Vinmec introduced another important achievement, the clinical 3D technology ecosystem that the unit is currently leading in Vietnam.

As the first and only hospital in the country to fully master the closed 3D technology chain, Vinmec has successfully applied it in many complex surgeries.

From 3D anatomical models that accurately recreate the injury, personalized surgical aids that shorten intervention times, to 3D printed titanium implants that ensure optimal recovery in function and shape, all aim to serve the goal of “personalized” treatment for each patient.

Virtual reality (VR) technology is also integrated into the process, allowing doctors and engineers to simulate the surgery before performing it for real, improving accuracy and safety in treatment.

Not only in theory, these applications have been effectively deployed in clinical practice. Notably, in September 2024, Vinmec successfully performed radical surgery on a mediastinal tumor measuring up to 11.5 cm and partially reconstructed the chest wall using 3D printed titanium material.

This is the first surgery in Southeast Asia to use 3D titanium printing technology to replace the artificial chest wall. Immediately after that, Vinmec continued to affirm its pioneering position when performing a total femur replacement with personalized 3D printed titanium material for the youngest patient in the world , an unprecedented achievement.

Instead of using commercially available devices that are not always fully compatible with each patient, Vinmec proactively designs PSI surgical positioning devices as well as artificial bone and joint components specifically for each patient, based on CT and MRI imaging data. Thanks to that, surgeries not only achieve high accuracy but also shorten recovery time and maximize post-treatment mobility.

Sharing about the long-term vision, Prof. Dr. Tran Trung Dung affirmed that investing in research, technology development and integration into the healthcare operation system is the strategic direction of Vinmec. We want to create real changes, concrete steps so that Vietnamese people can access high-quality healthcare services at reasonable costs, right in their own country.

The special attention from Party and State leaders and representatives of central agencies at the exhibition is a clear demonstration of the belief that Vietnamese intelligence is fully capable of creating advanced medical solutions, not only serving the people in the country but also contributing to shaping the position of Vietnamese healthcare on the world map.
