A proposal for an Italian minimum data set assessment protocol for robot-assisted rehabilitation: a Delphi study.

European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
BACKGROUND: At present there is no agreement on a common evaluation protocol to assess improvement in stroke patients after robotic therapy.

Respiratory gas exchange during robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

Journal of clinical anesthesia
STUDY OBJECTIVE: Robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy requires patients to be secured in a steep Trendelenburg position for several hours. Added to the CO2 pneumoperitoneum that is created, this positioning invariably restricts diaphragmatic a...

Predicting Complete Ground Reaction Forces and Moments During Gait With Insole Plantar Pressure Information Using a Wavelet Neural Network.

Journal of biomechanical engineering
In general, three-dimensional ground reaction forces (GRFs) and ground reaction moments (GRMs) that occur during human gait are measured using a force plate, which are expensive and have spatial limitations. Therefore, we proposed a prediction model ...

Analysis of short-term heart rate and diastolic period variability using a refined fuzzy entropy method.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Heart rate variability (HRV) has been widely used in the non-invasive evaluation of cardiovascular function. Recent studies have also attached great importance to the cardiac diastolic period variability (DPV) examination. Short-term vari...

Colonoscopy with robotic steering and automated lumen centralization: a feasibility study in a colon model.

Endoscopy
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS: We introduced a new platform for performing colonoscopy with robotic steering and automated lumen centralization (RS-ALC) and evaluated its technical feasibility.

Using local lexicalized rules to identify heart disease risk factors in clinical notes.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Heart disease is the leading cause of death globally and a significant part of the human population lives with it. A number of risk factors have been recognized as contributing to the disease, including obesity, coronary artery disease (CAD), hyperte...

A Novel Feature Extraction Approach Using Window Function Capturing and QPSO-SVM for Enhancing Electronic Nose Performance.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In this paper, a novel feature extraction approach which can be referred to as moving window function capturing (MWFC) has been proposed to analyze signals of an electronic nose (E-nose) used for detecting types of infectious pathogens in rat wounds....

Salvage robot assisted radical prostatectomy: A propensity matched study of perioperative, oncological and functional outcomes.

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
BACKGROUND: To report the perioperative, functional and oncological outcomes of salvage robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (s-RARP) in a propensity score-matched analysis.
