Massdevice features Auris Health’s ACCESS study results, which were first announced at CHEST 2018 in San Antonio, Texas by Dr. Alexander Chen from Washington University in St. Louis. This study was the follow-up to the REACH study, which focused on the Monarch Platform’s ability to reach deeper into the lung’s periphery. With the ACCESS study, eight investigators performed robotic-assisted procedures using the Monarch Platform on a cadaveric model designed to mimic a real-life bronchoscopy procedure.

The Monarch Platform made headlines for the first use of the technology at El Camino Hospital, located in Mountain View, California, as part of a clinical trial. El Camino’s clinical trial marks the first institution in the United States to use the Monarch Platform’s robotic technology for bronchoscopic procedures. Dr. Ganesh Krishna, the pulmonologist who performed the first case on March 30, 2018, believes the Monarch Platform marks a needed “paradigm shift” in the way physicians diagnose lung disease.

The Taft Center for Clinical Research at El Camino Hospital, located in Mountain View, California, reported that its interventional pulmonology team successfully used the Auris Monarch Platform as part of a clinical trial. Using Auris’s innovative robotic bronchoscopy technology, the team was able to view the inside of the patient’s lungs and obtain a tissue sample. This marks the first procedure of its kind in the United States.
