In the CC there were some mentions relevant to NVDQ...
The increases in instruments and accessories were driven by procedure growth of approximately 26% and sales of our new instrument and accessory products, including Single-Site, vessel sealer and Firefly.
Our second quarter average sales price per system was $1.53 million, an increase from the $1.44 million realized in the second quarter of 2011 and $1.47 million realized in the first quarter. ASPs include all da Vinci models, all simulators and Firefly when configured with the system and exclude upgrades.
Operationally, we continue to make progress toward optimizing the manufacturing process while reducing product costs. Regarding system attachments, namely da Vinci Simulator and da Vinci Firefly. Both attachment rates remained high in the second quarter. Strong market acceptance for these products has helped buoy our da Vinci system ASP to an all-time high.
Growth in general surgery was also multifaceted, including growth in colon and rectal surgery, as well as cholecystectomy.
Clinically, we had a solid quarter, achieving year-over-year procedure growth of approximately 26%. Gynecology, general surgery, along with the emerging categories of thoracic and head and neck surgery, accounted for a large part of this growth. Da Vinci Hysterectomy, Cholecystectomy, Colon and Rectal Resections, Lobectomy, Endometriosis Resections, Myomectomy and Partial Nephrectomy exhibited strong quarter-over-quarter growth, which was partially offset by dVP softness in the United States.
