Robot-assisted radical cystectomy: Where we are in 2023.

Investigative and clinical urology
Open radical cystectomy (ORC) is associated with high rates of perioperative morbidity and mortality, owing to its extensive surgical nature and the high frequency of multiple co-morbidities among patients. As an alternative, robot-assisted radical c...

Robotic-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy - our first experience.

Rozhledy v chirurgii : mesicnik Ceskoslovenske chirurgicke spolecnosti
INTRODUCTION: Minimally invasive esophagectomy is associated with lower postoperative morbidity and better quality of life compared to open esophagectomy in patients with comparable oncological outcomes. Robotic-assisted surgery represents the next s...

A comparative study of the 2D- and 3D-based skeleton avatar technology for assessing physical activity and functioning among healthy older adults.

Health informatics journal
Maintaining physical activity (PA) and functioning (mobility, balance) is essential for older adults' well-being and quality of life. However, current methods (functional tests, self-reports) and available techniques (accelerometers, sensors, advanc...

A Self-Interpretable Deep Learning Model for Seizure Prediction Using a Multi-Scale Prototypical Part Network.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
The epileptic seizure prediction (ESP) method aims to timely forecast the occurrence of seizures, which is crucial to improving patients' quality of life. Many deep learning-based methods have been developed to tackle this issue and achieve significa...

Advanced Reconstruction of Vesicourethral Support May Improve Urinary Continence and Quality of Life After Non-nerve-sparing Robot-assisted Radical Prostatectomy.

In vivo (Athens, Greece)
BACKGROUND/AIM: Postoperative urinary incontinence (UI) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) has a significant impact on patients' quality of life (QOL). Several surgical techniques have been reported to improve postoperative UI. The aim...

Artificial intelligence in peritoneal dialysis: general overview.

Renal failure
OBJECTIVE: This article is a general overview about artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) algorithms in the domain of peritoneal dialysis (PD).

Feasibility of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy in men at senior age ≥75 years: perioperative, functional, and oncological outcomes of a high-volume center.

The aging male : the official journal of the International Society for the Study of the Aging Male
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to assess whether age ≥75 years impairs surgical, functional, and oncological outcomes after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).

[Trans-Douglas Retzius' space-sparing robot-assisted simple prostatectomy for large-volume benign prostate hyperplasia].

Zhonghua nan ke xue = National journal of andrology
OBJECTIVE: To report the safety and efficacy of trans-Douglas Retzius' space-sparing robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RSS-RASP) in the treatment of large-volume BPH.

Present and future of machine learning in breast surgery: systematic review.

The British journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: Machine learning is a set of models and methods that can automatically detect patterns in vast amounts of data, extract information, and use it to perform decision-making under uncertain conditions. The potential of machine learning is si...

Development of a Knowledge Base for Chronic Wound Management Using the Decision Model & Notation.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Chronic wounds have significant impacts on patient health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and the healthcare expenditures. Various complex decision-making scenarios arise from wound management. Clinical decision-making systems (CDSS) can assist in re...
