Robotic Surgery Instruments and Accessories Revenue Growth measures the year-over-year change in Intuitive's instruments and accessories revenue.

Instruments and accessories revenue increased 19% in 2025, to $6.019 billion from $5.079 billion.

Compare revenue growth with procedure growth

Intuitive's da Vinci procedure volume grew 18% in 2025 while instruments and accessories revenue grew 19%. Comparing those rates can help identify whether mix and monetization are moving roughly with procedure adoption rather than assuming every procedure carries identical consumable revenue.

Investor caution

A one-year spread between procedure growth and instruments and accessories revenue growth is not a pure price measure. Procedure complexity, product mix, platform mix, geography, foreign exchange, and other factors can change revenue per procedure.

Part of the Robotic Surgery Platform Economics

Connect procedure demand, installed-base growth and utilization, system placements and financing mix, and recurring instruments, service, and lease revenue to understand robotic-surgery platform economics.

How the model fits together
  • Procedure demand and installed-base utilization: Annual procedure volume is driven by the system base available through the year and procedures performed per system. Installed-base growth and utilization growth therefore help separate capacity expansion from deeper use, but the point-in-time installed base and annual procedure count do not form an exact accounting identity.
  • Placements, financing mix, and system revenue timing: System placements add customer capacity through sales and multiple lease structures. Operating-lease placement mix changes when revenue is recognized, so placement growth and systems-revenue growth can diverge because of financing mix, product mix, trade-ins, lease buyouts, and pricing.
  • Recurring installed-base monetization: Intuitive defines recurring revenue as instruments and accessories revenue plus service revenue plus operating lease revenue. Procedure activity drives consumable demand, the installed base supports service economics, and leased systems add recurring system revenue, while the recurring-revenue mix shows the combined contribution relative to total company revenue.
