Tips and tricks in gynaecological robotic surgery.

Best practice & research. Clinical obstetrics & gynaecology
It was the dawn of a new era for robotic surgery when the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved da Vinci robotic surgical system for general laparoscopic procedures in 2000. The surgical practice saw a transformative breakthrough towards minima...

Human-Robot Joint Misalignment, Physical Interaction, and Gait Kinematic Assessment in Ankle-Foot Orthoses.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Lower limb exoskeletons and orthoses have been increasingly used to assist the user during gait rehabilitation through torque transmission and motor stability. However, the physical human-robot interface (HRi) has not been properly addressed. Current...

A Navigation Algorithm to Enable Sustainable Control of Insect-Computer Hybrid Robot with Stimulus Signal Regulator and Habituation-Breaking Function.

Soft robotics
The insect-computer hybrid soft robots are receiving increasing attention due to their excellent motor capabilities, small size, and low power consumption. However, the effective control of insects is limited to minutes since the response from insect...

Untethered shape-changing devices in the gastrointestinal tract.

Expert opinion on drug delivery
INTRODUCTION: Advances in microfabrication, automation, and computer engineering seek to revolutionize small-scale devices and machines. Emerging trends in medicine point to smart devices that emulate the motility, biosensing abilities, and intellige...

Saline-assisted fascial exposure (SAFE) technique to improve nerve-sparing in robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

BJU international
OBJECTIVE: To provide a summary of our initial experience and assess the impact of the Saline-Assisted Fascial Exposure (SAFE) technique on erectile function (EF), urinary continence, and oncological outcomes after Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Radical...

The bladder neck preservation in robot assisted radical prostatectomy: Surgical and pathological outcome.

Archivio italiano di urologia, andrologia : organo ufficiale [di] Societa italiana di ecografia urologica e nefrologica
INTRODUCTION: The post-prostatectomy incontinence is influenced by multiple elements, anatomic components and biological factors. The bladder neck preservation, more accurate during robot assisted radical prostatectomy, works on two anatomic componen...

When does "no" mean no? Insights from sex robots.

Cognition
Although sexual assault is widely accepted as morally wrong, not all instances of sexual assault are evaluated in the same way. Here, we ask whether different characteristics of victims affect people's moral evaluations of sexual assault perpetrators...

Analysis of the Screw Accuracy and Postoperative Efficacy of Screw Placement in Single Position and Bipedal Position in Robot-Assisted Oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion: Preliminary Results of Mazor X Stealth Usage.

Orthopaedic surgery
OBJECTIVE: Traditional manual OLIF combined with pedicle screw implantation has many problems of manual percutaneous screw implantation, such as high difficulty of screw placement, many fluoroscopies, long operation time, and many adjustments, result...

Expanding Robotic-Assisted Surgery in Gynecology Using the Potential of an Advanced Robotic System.

Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania)
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in gynecology was introduced to achieve the same surgical objectives as traditional open surgery while minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues, reducing pain, accelerating recovery, and improving overall patient outc...
