Pediatric Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty: Where Are We Now?

Current urology reports
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review aims to provide an in-depth exploration of the recent advancements in robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP) and its evolving landscape in the context of infant pyeloplasty, complex genitourinary (GU) anatomy, r...

Soft Artificial Muscle Based on Pre-Detwinned Shape Memory Alloy Spring Actuator Achieving High Passive Assistive Torque for Wearable Robot.

Soft robotics
For designing the assistive wearable rehabilitation robots, it is challenging to design the robot as energy efficient because the actuators have to be capable of overcoming human loads such as gravity of the body and spastic torque continuously durin...

Robot-assisted transcervical esophagectomy with a bilateral cervical approach for thoracic esophagectomy.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Thoracic esophageal cancer resection through the neck approach has recently been reported as mediastinoscopic surgery. We present the first report of a new minimally invasive technique for thoracic esophageal cancer: robot-assisted transc...

Myoelectric, Myo-Oxygenation, and Myotonometry Changes during Robot-Assisted Bilateral Arm Exercises with Varying Resistances.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Robot-assisted bilateral arm training has demonstrated its effectiveness in improving motor function in individuals post-stroke, showing significant enhancements with increased repetitions. However, prolonged training sessions may lead to both mental...

An Optimized Stimulation Control System for Upper Limb Exoskeleton Robot-Assisted Rehabilitation Using a Fuzzy Logic-Based Pain Detection Approach.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The utilization of robotic systems in upper limb rehabilitation has shown promising results in aiding individuals with motor impairments. This research introduces an innovative approach to enhance the efficiency and adaptability of upper limb exoskel...

Safety and efficacy of frameless stereotactic robot-assisted intraparenchymal brain lesion biopsies versus image-guided biopsies: a bicentric comparative study.

Acta neurochirurgica
PURPOSE: User-friendly robotic assistance and image-guided tools have been developed in the past decades for intraparenchymal brain lesion biopsy. These two methods are gradually becoming well accepted and are performed at the discretion of the neuro...

Combining Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation With Hand Robotic Rehabilitation in Chronic Stroke Patients: A Double-Blind Randomized Clinical Trial.

American journal of physical medicine & rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the impact of combining transcranial direct current stimulation with end-effector robot-assisted treatment on upper limb function, spasticity, and hand dexterity in chronic stroke patients.

Robot-assisted Temporary Hemiepiphysiodesis With Eight-plates for Lower Extremity Deformities in Children.

Journal of pediatric orthopedics
PURPOSE: This study was performed to compare the radiographic results of robot-assisted and traditional methods of treating lower extremity deformities (LEDs).
