Robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty is associated with a learning curve for surgical time but not for component alignment, limb alignment and gap balancing.

Knee surgery, sports traumatology, arthroscopy : official journal of the ESSKA
PURPOSE: The application of robotics in the operating theatre for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains controversial. As with all new technology, the introduction of new systems is associated with a learning curve and potentially associated with ext...

Formal robotic training diminishes the learning curve for robotic pancreatoduodenectomy: Implications for new programs in complex robotic surgery.

Journal of surgical oncology
INTRODUCTION: The learning curve associated with robotic pancreatoduodenectomy (RPD) is a hurdle for new programs to achieve optimal results. Since early analysis, robotic training has recently expanded, and the RPD approach has been refined. The pur...

Robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal neobladder: impact of learning curve and long-term assessment of functional outcomes.

Minerva urology and nephrology
BACKGROUND: There is paucity of data about functional outcomes of Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy (RARC) with intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder (ICON), and the impact of learning curve (LC) on those outcomes remains to be addressed. The aim of t...

Experienced bedside-assistants improve operative outcomes for surgeons early in their learning curve for robot assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) relies heavily on the bedside assistant (BA). Currently, the relationship between BA experience and surgical outcomes in robotic surgery is not clear. We examined whether bedside assistant expe...

Multiquadrant surgery in the robotic era: a technical description and outcomes for da Vinci Xi robotic subtotal colectomy and total proctocolectomy.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Common colorectal procedures that require access to all quadrants of the abdomen are subtotal colectomy (STC) and total proctocolectomy (TPC). These are frequently performed with a surgical robot, but multiquadrant operations have unique ...

Expectations versus reality: trainee participation on the robotic console in academic surgery.

Surgical endoscopy
INTRODUCTION: Trainees underestimate the amount of operative autonomy they receive, whereas faculty overestimate; this has not been studied in robotics. We aimed to assess the perceptions and expectations of our general surgery trainees and faculty o...

The Use of Cumulative Sum Analysis to Derive Institutional and Surgeon-Specific Learning Curves for Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy.

Journal of endourology
The cumulative sum (CUSUM) approach has been adopted to evaluate surgical competence in various contexts. The CUSUM method comprises sequential monitoring of cumulative differences from a target level in performance quality over time, allowing the d...

Assessment of Quality Outcomes and Learning Curve for Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive McKeown Esophagectomy.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to identify the results of the quality assessment and the learning curve of robot-assisted minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy (RAMIE-MK).
