In Vitro Evaluation of the Fresenius Kabi CATSmart Autotransfusion System.

The journal of extra-corporeal technology
Use of autotransfusion systems to collect, wash, and concentrate shed blood during surgical procedures is a widely used method for reducing postoperative anemia and the need for blood transfusions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the CATSmart C...

Mobile microrobots for bioengineering applications.

Lab on a chip
Untethered micron-scale mobile robots can navigate and non-invasively perform specific tasks inside unprecedented and hard-to-reach inner human body sites and inside enclosed organ-on-a-chip microfluidic devices with live cells. They are aimed to ope...

Fundamentals of soft robot locomotion.

Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
Soft robotics and its related technologies enable robot abilities in several robotics domains including, but not exclusively related to, manipulation, manufacturing, human-robot interaction and locomotion. Although field applications have emerged for...

Spinal Tissue Loading Created by Different Methods of Spinal Manipulative Therapy Application.

Spine
STUDY DESIGN: Comparative study using robotic replication of spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) vertebral kinematics together with serial dissection.

Telesurgery With Miniature Robots to Leverage Surgical Expertise in Distributed Expeditionary Environments.

Military medicine
UNLABELLED: This study aimed to evaluate the capability of performing telesurgery via radio transmission for military arenas where wired internet connections may not be practical. Most existing robotic surgery systems are too large to effectively dep...

Magnetically powered microrobots: a medical revolution underway?

European journal of cardio-thoracic surgery : official journal of the European Association for Cardio-thoracic Surgery

Use of Robotic Manipulators to Study Diarthrodial Joint Function.

Journal of biomechanical engineering
Diarthrodial joint function is mediated by a complex interaction between bones, ligaments, capsules, articular cartilage, and muscles. To gain a better understanding of injury mechanisms and to improve surgical procedures, an improved understanding o...

Percutaneous coronary intervention using a combination of robotics and telecommunications by an operator in a separate physical location from the patient: an early exploration into the feasibility of telestenting (the REMOTE-PCI study).

EuroIntervention : journal of EuroPCR in collaboration with the Working Group on Interventional Cardiology of the European Society of Cardiology
AIMS: The present study explores the feasibility of telestenting, wherein a physician operator performs stenting on a patient in a separate physical location using a combination of robotics and telecommunications.

Robots in healthcare security and safety: the future is now.

Journal of healthcare protection management : publication of the International Association for Hospital Security
Robot security officers cur- rently are now available to perform functions which are not cost-effective for humans, according to the author who heads a company which manu- factures them. In this article he describes the capabilities of robot officers...
