Robotic surgical systems were first introduced in the mid to late 1980 s and utilized for brain biopsies and prostate surgeries. The first robot intended for orthopedic surgery was developed in the early 1990's to aid hip replacements. Current orthopedic surgical robots are used for knee and/or hip replacements. VA estimates the following quantities during the 60-months ordering period: CLIN Item Description UOM YEAR 1 YEAR 2 YEAR 3 YEAR 4 YEAR 5 0001 Orthopedic Surgical Robotic System (Knee and Hip) EA 3 3 3 3 3 0002 Annual Service Agreement EA 3 3 3 3 3 The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is seeking vendors who can provide Orthopedic Surgical Robotic Systems which meet all the following Minimum Technical Requirements (MTRs): MTR # Minimum Technical Requirement Method of Evaluation MTR Literature Map Document Title Page # MTR 1 Perform robotic partial knee replacement procedures Literature Review MTR 2 Perform robotic total knee replacement procedures Literature Review MTR 3 Perform robotic total hip replacement procedures Literature Review MTR 4 FDA approved for indicated robotic procedures Literature Review MTR 5 Provide the surgeon with the ability to pre-plan the procedure within defined cutting boundaries and surface Literature Review MTR 6 Provide the surgeon with the ability to constrain the movement of the robotic cutting tool to minimize bone and tissue damage Literature Review For each product the response must include descriptive literature demonstrating the product meets or exceeds the MTRs specified above.
