Vinmec introduces “Make in Vietnam” medical robot, pioneering smart hospital model

At the exhibition “Outstanding achievements in the healthcare and education sector” on the sidelines of the National Conference on disseminating and implementing 4 Resolutions of the Politburo, held on September 16 at the National Assembly House, Vinmec Healthcare System introduced a series of advanced medical technologies, including VinMotion Motion One smart medical robot and 3D clinical technology - breakthrough achievements affirming the strong progress of Vietnamese healthcare.

Robots become "receptionists" at smart hospitals

The conference was attended by General Secretary To Lam, President Luong Cuong, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man, along with leaders of the Party, State, and representatives of central ministries and branches. Among the four Politburo Resolutions disseminated and implemented at the conference was Resolution No. 72-NQ/TW on a number of breakthrough solutions to strengthen the protection, care and improvement of people's health.

Party and State leaders and delegates interact with VinMotion medical robot

Before the opening ceremony, delegates visiting the exhibition directly experienced the VinMotion Medical Robot, noting that this is Vinmec's pioneering step for the smart hospital model. The robot was researched and developed by VinMotion engineers and Vinmec experts, capable of natural communication with friendly expressions, supporting, interacting and answering basic information for patients throughout the examination process.

With the ability to welcome and serve up to hundreds of guests per day, the Robot acts as an intelligent "medical staff", supporting the work of medical staff, improving customer experience and satisfaction.

Vinmec plans to put the VinMotion Motion One “Make in Vietnam” robot into operation in the reception area as a smart medical staff, connecting patients with the modern medical technology system.

Prof. Dr. Tran Trung Dung, General Director of Vinmec System, said: “We aim to build a smart hospital chain model, where robots can communicate naturally and support medical staff in repetitive tasks. This is an important step to open up the future, when robots, artificial intelligence and medical data are merged to bring a personalized, comprehensive and breakthrough medical experience, while preserving humanistic values ​​in health care”.

3D Technology - Breakthrough for personalized treatment

Besides Robot, in the presence of senior leaders of the Party and State, Prof. Dr. Tran Trung Dung introduced the achievements of 3D technology application in medicine - a field in which Vinmec is also holding the leading position in Vietnam.

Accordingly, Vinmec is the first and only unit in Vietnam to master the entire closed 3D technology chain, creating "individual, precise" breakthroughs in treatment: 3D printed anatomical models accurately reproduce complex pathologies; personalized surgical aids, helping to shorten surgery time and reduce complications. Notably, 3D printed titanium implant technology helps to optimally restore both function and shape; virtual reality (VR) technology supports doctors and engineers to intuitively experiment with pre-operative procedures.

These applications have helped Vinmec succeed in many complex cases such as chest wall reconstruction, pelvic wing replacement, total femur replacement in pediatric patients... Instead of using devices available on the market that are sometimes not fully compatible with the patient, Vinmec designs PSI surgical positioning devices and artificial joints - bones separately for each patient, based on CT and MRI data. This device helps increase the accuracy of surgery, optimize motor function and shorten recovery time for patients.

Notably, in September 2024, Vinmec successfully performed a radical surgery to remove a 11.5 cm mediastinal tumor and reconstructed part of the chest wall with titanium material. This success made Vinmec the first hospital in Southeast Asia to apply 3D titanium printing technology in thoracic surgery with artificial chest wall grafts. Following that success, Vinmec is also the unit that successfully performed a total 3D titanium printed femur replacement surgery for the youngest patient in the world .

“Investing in, promoting the application of science and technology, optimizing operations, developing the academic healthcare system through breakthrough research, thereby having effective applications for patients is our desire and orientation, in order to contribute to improving the country's healthcare, so that Vietnamese people can receive the best quality healthcare,” Prof. Tran Trung Dung added.

The special attention from the leaders of the Party, State and ministries, departments and branches at the conference is a testament to the belief that Vietnamese intelligence is completely capable of creating pioneering solutions, contributing to improving the quality of health care for people and raising the position of Vietnamese healthcare on the world map.
