Short-term outcomes in robot-assisted compared to laparoscopic colon cancer resections: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted surgery is increasingly adopted in colorectal surgery. However, evidence for the implementation of robot-assisted surgery for colon cancer is sparse. This study aims to evaluate the short-term outcomes of robot-assisted col...

Machine learning in the prediction of medical inpatient length of stay.

Internal medicine journal
Length of stay (LOS) estimates are important for patients, doctors and hospital administrators. However, making accurate estimates of LOS can be difficult for medical patients. This review was conducted with the aim of identifying and assessing previ...

Level 2a evidence comparing robotic versus laparoscopic left lateral hepatic sectionectomy: a meta-analysis.

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate comparative outcomes of robotic and laparoscopic left lateral hepatic sectionectomy (LLS).

Prediction of Readmission in Geriatric Patients From Clinical Notes: Retrospective Text Mining Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Prior literature suggests that psychosocial factors adversely impact health and health care utilization outcomes. However, psychosocial factors are typically not captured by the structured data in electronic medical records (EMRs) but are...

Robotic thymectomy: A surgical point of view.

Multimedia manual of cardiothoracic surgery : MMCTS
Robotic thymectomy is the most innovative surgical approach for treating disease of the anterior mediastinum. Robotic surgery offers low postoperative morbidity, faster recovery, shorter hospital stay, and better cosmetic results, without compromisin...

Short-term and pathologic outcomes of robotic versus open pancreatoduodenectomy for periampullary and pancreatic head malignancy: an early experience.

Journal of robotic surgery
Open pancreatoduodenectomy (OPD) is associated with high perioperative morbidity. Adoption of robot-assisted pancreatoduodenectomy (RAPD) has been slow despite ergonomic advantages, improved visualization and dexterity. We aim to report our experienc...

Implementing an Individual-Centric Discharge Process across Singapore Public Hospitals.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Singapore is one of the first known countries to implement an individual-centric discharge process across all public hospitals to manage frequent admissions-a perennial challenge for public healthcare, especially in an aging population. Specifically,...

Pure laparoscopic versus robotic liver resections: Multicentric propensity score-based analysis with stratification according to difficulty scores.

Journal of hepato-biliary-pancreatic sciences
BACKGROUND: The benefits of pure laparoscopic and robot-assisted liver resections (LLR and RALR) are known in comparison to open surgery. The aim of the present retrospective comparative study is to investigate the role of RALR and LLR according to d...

Robotic versus laparoscopic right hemicolectomy: a case-matched study.

Journal of robotic surgery
The current gold standard surgical treatment for right colonic malignancy is the laparoscopic right hemicolectomy (LRH). However, laparoscopic surgery has limitations which can be overcome by robotic surgery. The benefits of robotics for rectal cance...

The Use of Robotics in Surgery of Benign Liver Diseases: A Systematic Review.

Surgical innovation
BACKGROUND: Surgical treatment of benign liver diseases (BLD) remains a field of conflict, due to increased risk and high complication rate. However, the introduction of minimally invasive surgery has led to increased number of patients with BLD bein...
