Thermo-Pneumatic Artificial Muscle: Air-Based Thermo-Pneumatic Artificial Muscles for Pumpless Pneumatic Actuation.

Soft robotics
To make robots more human-like and safer to use around humans, artificial muscles exhibiting compliance have gained significant attention from researchers. However, despite having excellent performance, pneumatic artificial muscles (PAMs) have failed...

Versius robotic surgical system: case series of 18 robot-assisted radical prostatectomies.

BJU international
OBJECTIVE: To present the results of the first series of patients treated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with the use of the VersiusĀ® Surgical System (CMR Surgical Ltd., Cambridge, UK). RARP has demonstrated better perioperative out...

A matched-analysis on short-term and long-term (up to 5 years of follow-up) urinary incontinence outcomes after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with and without anterior and posterior reconstruction: data on 1358 patients.

International urology and nephrology
PURPOSE: We report a comparative monocentric study with a short and long-term follow-up with the aim to assess differences about urinary continence outcomes in patients treated with Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy (RARP) with two different techn...

Elderly Patients' Outcomes After Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: A Single Center Experience.

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
To assess the oncological and functional outcomes of patients aged 70 years or older after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and compare their results with younger men. Our study included 496 men who underwent RARP in our clinic between M...

Urinary continence in high-risk prostate cancer after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Current opinion in urology
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Urinary incontinence is common postoperative complication following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in patients with prostate cancer (PCa). Despite the increasing adoption of RARP in the treatment of high-risk PCa (HRPC...

Miniaturized Endoscopic 2D US Transducer for Volumetric Ultrasound Imaging of the Auditory System.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: In this paper, we focus on the carrying out and validation of minimally invasive three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound (US) imaging of the auditory system, which is based on a new miniaturized endoscopic 2D US transducer.

Robotic self-modulation enhances implantable long-acting drug delivery devices.

Science robotics
Integrating fibrotic capsule sensing with soft robotics may boost long-term performance of implantable drug delivery devices.

Soft robot-mediated autonomous adaptation to fibrotic capsule formation for improved drug delivery.

Science robotics
The foreign body response impedes the function and longevity of implantable drug delivery devices. As a dense fibrotic capsule forms, integration of the device with the host tissue becomes compromised, ultimately resulting in device seclusion and tre...

Artificial Intelligence-Based Consumer Health Informatics Application: Scoping Review.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: There is no doubt that the recent surge in artificial intelligence (AI) research will change the trajectory of next-generation health care, making it more approachable and accessible to patients. Therefore, it is critical to research pati...

Uptake of robot-assisted colon cancer surgery in the Netherlands.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: The robot-assisted approach is now often used for rectal cancer surgery, but its use in colon cancer surgery is less well defined. This study aims to compare the outcomes of robotic-assisted colon cancer surgery to conventional laparoscop...
