Abstract：Objective The Da Vinci Si surgical system is the most advanced platform for minimally invasive surgery available in the world nowadays. The integration of the high-resolution 3D vision, the wristed instrumentation, and the intuitive motion control enables the Da Vinci surgery do not to be limited by conventional surgical technologies. The system also provides a minimally invasive approach to a broad range of complex surgical procedures. High precision and quality is essential for the success of the surgery and the outcome of operation. Thus quality control and maintenance is very important in the system. Methods Emphasis was placed on the quality control of the Da Vinci Si robotic surgical system based on the Medical Device Directive, 93/42/EEC and manufacturer’s standard. The components of quality control includes the electrical safety, the stability and accuracy,and the visual and information communication. Results The precision and function of the Da Vinci Si robotic surgical system, as well as patients’ safety, were ensured through quality control. Conclusion It is important to check the system strictly based on the quality control standard and to maintain the system regularly to find out potential defective parts. It is essential to avoid non-intuitive control, blurred images, and instability of communication signals of the robotic system to ensure the safety and success of the surgery.
