FierceBiotech
Even when Auris Health, Inc., formerly known as Auris Surgical Robotics, was in stealth mode, it was recognized as a fierce company, thanks to the innovation and experience of Auris CEO, Dr. Fred Moll. The serial entrepreneur and innovator has long contributed to the robotics space.
Excerpt from the article: “Auris isn’t Frederic Moll’s first rodeo—the robotic surgery veteran helped found the sector’s mainstay, Intuitive Surgical, as well as Hansen Medical, which markets robotic systems focused on catheter-based, intravascular procedures. And while Moll’s latest project has been keeping mum on its ops, it still managed to pick up an impressive $150 million in financing in September 2015.”

Complications from bronchoscopy are rare and most often minor, but if they occur, may include breathing difficulty, vocal cord spasm, hoarseness, slight fever, vomiting, dizziness, bronchial spasm, infection, low blood oxygen, bleeding from biopsied site, or an allergic reaction to medications. Only rarely do patients experience other more serious complications (for example, collapsed lung, respiratory failure, heart attack and/or cardiac arrhythmia).
Urology:
Adverse effects from both Mini-PCNL and Ureteroscopy include pain, urinary tract infection, fever, hematuria (presence of blood in urine), exposure to low levels of radiation, retained or residual stones.
Adverse effects from ureteroscopy may include pain, perforation or injury to the ureter, resulting in extravasation of fluid and urine (urinoma), stricture of the ureter with risk of subsequent obstruction (hydronephrosis needing further repair), rare avulsion of the ureter, urinary blood clots, residual stones.
PCNL access may result in minor and major adverse effects. Minor effects include fever and nephrostomy leak. Major adverse effects may include injuries to pleura, liver, spleen, large vessels with related bleeding, gallbladder, duodenum, jejunum, colon with related cutaneous fistula, fever, pain, ileus, elevated counts.
Major adverse effects related to stone removal may include infection and urosepsis, intravascular fluid overload, extravasation of fluid, and post percutaneous nephrolithotomy bleeding.
