OBJECTIVE: Conventional surgical assistance and skill analysis for suturing mostly focus on the motions of the tools. As the quality of the suturing is determined by needle motions relative to the tissues, having knowledge of the needle motion would ...
BACKGROUND: We aimed to demonstrate that supervised machine learning (ML) models can better predict postoperative complications after total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) than comorbidity indices.

BACKGROUND: Accurate estimation of operative case-time duration is critical for optimizing operating room use. Current estimates are inaccurate and earlier models include data not available at the time of scheduling. Our objective was to develop stat...
BACKGROUND: We sought to identify the independent predictors of blood transfusion requirement in robotic beating-heart patients with totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass (TECAB).
BACKGROUND: There is ongoing debate about whether or not robot-assisted thyroidectomy is appropriate for modified radical neck dissection (MRND). The purpose of this study was to compare the surgical outcomes of robot-assisted MRND with those of a co...

PURPOSE: Real-time surgical tool tracking is a core component of the future intelligent operating room (OR), because it is highly instrumental to analyze and understand the surgical activities. Current methods for surgical tool tracking in videos nee...
BACKGROUND: While laparoscopy is currently adopted for hepatic resections, robotic approaches to the liver have not gained wide acceptance. We decided to analyze the learning curve in the field of robotic liver surgery comparing short-term outcomes b...
