What are clinically relevant performance metrics in robotic surgery? A systematic review of the literature.

Journal of robotic surgery
A crucial element of any surgical training program is the ability to provide procedure-specific, objective, and reliable measures of performance. During robotic surgery, objective clinically relevant performance metrics (CRPMs) can provide tailored c...

Design, development and evaluation of an ergonomically designed dual-use mechanism for robot-assisted cardiovascular intervention.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Robot-assisted cardiovascular intervention has been recently developed, which enables interventionists to avoid x-ray radiation and improve their comfort. However, there are still some challenges in the robotic design, such as the inability ...

A bioinspired robotic knee with controlled joint surfaces and adjustable ligaments.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The knee joint plays a key role in kinematic and kinetic performances of pedestrain locomotion. The key role of meniscus with matched ligaments in joint stability and movability has not been fully explored in current robotic knee designs. We fabricat...

Implementing a pediatric robotic surgery program: future perspectives.

Cirugia pediatrica : organo oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Cirugia Pediatrica
INTRODUCTION: The minimally invasive approach using robotic technology is fully incorporated in the treatment of adult pathologies. The first international pediatric studies with a robotic approach date from 2002, and in Spain, from 2009. We present ...

Laparoscopic versus robot-assisted pyeloplasty in infants and young children.

Asian journal of surgery
OBJECTIVE: To compare the characteristics of conventional laparoscopic pyeloplasty (LP) and robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP) in infants and young children with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO).

Toward Safe Wearer-Prosthesis Interaction: Evaluation of Gait Stability and Human Compensation Strategy Under Faults in Robotic Transfemoral Prostheses.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Although advanced wearable robots can assist human wearers, their internal faults (i.e., sensors or control errors) also pose a challenge. To ensure safe wearer-robot interactions, how internal errors by the prosthesis limb affect the stability of th...

Robotic radical distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer using the soft coagulation scissors technique.

Journal of robotic surgery
We have developed a novel technique for safe and precise lymph-node dissection during robotic gastrectomy for gastric cancer using monopolar curved scissors with soft coagulation. This technique is called the soft coagulation scissors technique. The ...

Robotic repair of a branching vesicouterine and vesicovaginal fistula.

International urogynecology journal
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: We present technical considerations and tips for repairing a complex branching vesicouterine and vesicovaginal fistula via a robotic approach.
