Validation of a Simulation Model for Robotic Sacrocolpopexy.

Female pelvic medicine & reconstructive surgery
OBJECTIVE: We sought to validate a simulation model for robotic sacrocolpopexy (RSCP) that includes multiple steps: presacral dissection/mesh attachment, vaginal mesh attachment, and peritoneal closure.

A path planning method of 6-DOF robot for mirror therapy based on A* algorithm.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: With the population aging, post-stroke patients suffering from hemiplegia are also rapidly increasing. It is essential to provide valid rehabilitation methods for hemiplegia patients. Mirror therapy is an effective rehabilitation method a...

Gait changes following robot-assisted gait training in children with cerebral palsy.

Physiological research
This study investigated changes of gait pattern induced by a 4-week robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) in twelve ambulatory spastic diparesis children with cerebral palsy (CP) aged 10.4+/-3.2 years old by using computerized gait analysis (CGA). Pre-...

Case report of pure single-port robotic left lateral sectionectomy using the da Vinci SP system.

Medicine
INTRODUCTION: Since its first appearance in the early 1990s, laparoscopic hepatic resection has become increasingly accepted and recognized as safe as laparotomy. The recent introduction of robotic surgery systems has brought new innovations to the f...

Educational Program Using Robots for Preventing Cognitive Decline of Elderly Persons.

Studies in health technology and informatics
An expected surge of dementia patients in Japan indicates a pressing need to establish countermeasures. As described herein, by developing an educational program for elderly people using robots, we performed a demonstration experiment. Results reveal...

Building Nursing Knowledge to Meet the Needs of Disruptive Technology Healthcare Re-Design.

Studies in health technology and informatics
This paper provides a discourse based upon the key development of nursing in response to the emerging 4Ds of health technology re-design. Building informatics capability among health professionals is a workforce issue necessitated through the increas...

Irrelevant Robot Signals in a Categorization Task Induce Cognitive Conflict in Performance, Eye Trajectories, the N2 Component of the EEG Signal, and Frontal Theta Oscillations.

Journal of cognitive neuroscience
Understanding others' nonverbal behavior is essential for social interaction, as it allows, among others, to infer mental states. Although gaze communication, a well-established nonverbal social behavior, has shown its importance in inferring others'...

Effects of robot (SUBAR)-assisted gait training in patients with chronic stroke: Randomized controlled trial.

Medicine
BACKGROUND: SUBAR is a new ground walking exoskeletal robot. The objective of this study is to investigate SUBAR-assisted gait training's effects in patients with chronic stroke.

[Robotic percutaneous coronary intervention: current evidence, practical aspects and future perspectives].

Giornale italiano di cardiologia (2006)
Robotic percutaneous coronary intervention (R-PCI) is an emerging technology designed to improve operator safety and procedural precision. The interventional cardiologist is able to manipulate guidewires, catheters and devices from a specific cockpit...
