Evolution of the digital operating room: the place of video technology in surgery.

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
PURPOSE: The aim of this review was to collate current evidence wherein digitalisation, through the incorporation of video technology and artificial intelligence (AI), is being applied to the practice of surgery. Applications are vast, and the litera...

[Operating room nurses and the surgical robot, turning a competitor into an ally].

Soins; la revue de reference infirmiere
The ambivalence of the professional identity of the State Certified Operating Room Nurse (SCNO) is due to the difficulty of building a non-surgical technicality. Therefore, the participation of ORNs in robotic developments seems to be a way of emanci...

Understanding the role of the scrub nurse during robotic surgery.

Nursing standard (Royal College of Nursing (Great Britain) : 1987)
In the operating theatre, the scrub nurse has a wide range of roles, including responsibility for organising and ensuring that the correct instrumentation is available to the surgeon in the operating field, while maintaining stringent adherence to th...

Ontology-based surgical workflow recognition and prediction.

Journal of biomedical informatics
BACKGROUND: Surgical context-aware systems can adapt to the current situation in the operating room and thus provide computer-aided assistance functionalities and intraoperative decision-support. To interact with the surgical team perceptively and as...

Mobile service robots for the operating room wing: balancing cost and performance by optimizing robotic fleet size and composition.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Integrating fleets of mobile service robots into the operating room wing (OR wing) has the potential to help overcome staff shortages and reduce the amount of dull or unhealthy tasks for humans. However, the OR wing has been little studied i...

[Modern OR management in tertiary care hospitals].

Unfallchirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany)
Institutional operating room (OR) management is an established and indispensable component of organizational structures in most hospitals, independent of the level of care. In this role, OR management needs to consider both the high fixed costs of op...

Unsupervised domain adaptation for clinician pose estimation and instance segmentation in the operating room.

Medical image analysis
The fine-grained localization of clinicians in the operating room (OR) is a key component to design the new generation of OR support systems. Computer vision models for person pixel-based segmentation and body-keypoints detection are needed to better...

Streamlining surgical trays for common pediatric urology Procedures: A quality improvement initiative.

Journal of pediatric urology
INTRODUCTION: Procedures involving the external genitalia are the most common pediatric urologic operations. Our group identified excess instrumentation for these cases to be a potential cause of operating room (OR) inefficiency at our large, freesta...

Analysis of Operating Room Efficiency During Robot-Assisted Urologic Surgeries Utilizing Fixed (Nonprocedural) Operative Times.

Journal of endourology
To analyze operating room (OR) efficiency by evaluating fixed OR times for three common urologic robot-assisted procedures. Over a 24-month period, we prospectively collected intraoperative data for 635 consecutive robot-assisted surgeries. Fixed (...

Self-supervised learning via cluster distance prediction for operating room context awareness.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Semantic segmentation and activity classification are key components to create intelligent surgical systems able to understand and assist clinical workflow. In the operating room, semantic segmentation is at the core of creating robots aware...
