Efficacy and safety of robotic spine surgery: systematic review and meta-analysis.

Journal of orthopaedics and traumatology : official journal of the Italian Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology
BACKGROUND: Robotic surgery (RS) may offer benefits compared with freehand/conventional surgery (FS) in the treatment of patients with spinal disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of RS versus FS in spinal fusion.

Proprioception and Exteroception of a Soft Robotic Finger Using Neuromorphic Vision-Based Sensing.

Soft robotics
Equipping soft robotic grippers with sensing and perception capabilities faces significant challenges due to their high compliance and flexibility, limiting their ability to successfully interact with the environment. In this work, we propose a senso...

Safe design of surgical robots - a systematic approach to comprehensive hazard identification.

Biomedizinische Technik. Biomedical engineering
OBJECTIVES: Since the 1980s, robotic arms have been transferred from industrial applications to orthopaedic surgical robotics. Adverse events are frequent and often associated with the adopted powerful and oversized anthropomorphic arms. The FDA's 51...

Robotic versus open simple prostatectomy for benign prostatic hyperplasia in large glands: single-centre study.

World journal of urology
PURPOSE: Robot-assisted simple prostatectomy (RASP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a recently described surgical approach, but comparison with open simple prostatectomy (OSP) lack in the literature. We compared perioperative outcomes of OS...

Establishment of a new practical telesurgical platform using the hinotori™ Surgical Robot System: a preclinical study.

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
AIM: The recent development of new surgical robots and network telecommunication technology has opened new avenues for robotic telesurgery. Although a few gastroenterological surgeries have been performed in the telesurgery setting, more technically ...

A Force-Feedback Methodology for Teleoperated Suturing Task in Robotic-Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
With robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RAMIS), patients and surgeons benefit from a reduced incision size and dexterous instruments. However, current robotic surgery platforms lack haptic feedback, which is an essential element of safe ope...

The Navigation System of a Logistics Inspection Robot Based on Multi-Sensor Fusion in a Complex Storage Environment.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
To reliably realize the functions of autonomous navigation and cruise of logistics robots in a complex logistics storage environment, this paper proposes a new robot navigation system based on vision and multiline lidar information fusion, which can ...

Functional Liquid Crystal Elastomers Based on Dynamic Covalent Chemistry.

Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)
The marriage of liquid crystal elastomers with dynamic covalent chemistry can be a new paradigm for the development of dynamic and intelligent polymers with versatile functionalities, which is of paramount significance for many emerging applications ...

Emerging Magnetic Fabrication Technologies Provide Controllable Hierarchically-Structured Biomaterials and Stimulus Response for Biomedical Applications.

Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
Multifunctional nanocomposites which exhibit well-defined physical properties and encode spatiotemporally-controlled responses are emerging as components for advanced responsive systems. For biomedical applications magnetic nanocomposite materials ha...
