Interactive robots for health in Europe: Technology readiness and adoption potential.

Frontiers in public health
INTRODUCTION: Social robots are accompanied by high expectations of what they can bring to society and in the healthcare sector. So far, promising assumptions have been presented about how and where social robots are most relevant. We know that the i...

Artificial Muscles and Soft Robotic Devices for Treatment of End-Stage Heart Failure.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Medical soft robotics constitutes a rapidly developing field in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, with a promising future for millions of patients suffering from heart failure worldwide. Herein, the present state and future direction of artif...

The effect of soft palate reconstruction with the da Vinci robot on middle ear function in children: an observational study.

International journal of oral and maxillofacial surgery
Cleft palate is associated with a high prevalence of middle ear dysfunction, even after palatal repair. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of robot-enhanced soft palate closure on middle ear functioning. This retrospective study compar...

Impact of educational video on performance in robotic simulation training (TAKUMI-1): a randomized controlled trial.

Journal of robotic surgery
The use of virtual reality for simulations plays an important role in the initial training for robotic surgery. This randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the impact of educational video on the performance of robotic simulation. Participan...

Priority-based replenishment policy for robotic dispensing in central fill pharmacy systems: a simulation-based study.

Health care management science
In recent years, companies that operate pharmacy store chains have adopted centralized and automated fulfillment systems, which are called Central Fill Pharmacy Systems (CFPS). The Robotic Dispensing System (RDS) plays a crucial role by automatically...

Mammalian-brain-inspired neuromorphic motion-cognition nerve achieves cross-modal perceptual enhancement.

Nature communications
Perceptual enhancement of neural and behavioral response due to combinations of multisensory stimuli are found in many animal species across different sensory modalities. By mimicking the multisensory integration of ocular-vestibular cues for enhance...

Emotional experiences of service robots' anthropomorphic appearance: a multimodal measurement method.

Ergonomics
Anthropomorphic appearance is a key factor to affect users' attitudes and emotions. This research aimed to measure emotional experience caused by robots' anthropomorphic appearance with three levels - high, moderate, and low - using multimodal measur...

Ratio of Economy of Motion: A New Objective Performance Indicator to Assign Consoles During Dual-Console Robotic Proctectomy.

The American surgeon
BACKGROUND: Our group investigates objective performance indicators (OPIs) to analyze robotic colorectal surgery. Analyses of OPI data are difficult in dual-console procedures (DCPs) as there is currently no reliable, efficient, or scalable technique...

Robot-assisted general surgery is safe during the learning curve: a 5-year Australian experience.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robot-assisted general surgery has become increasingly common in the Australian public sector since 2003. It provides significant technical advantages compared to laparoscopic surgery. Currently, it is estimated that the learning curve for surgeons s...
