Soft, Lightweight Wearable Robots to Support the Upper Limb in Activities of Daily Living: A Feasibility Study on Chronic Stroke Patients.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Stroke can be a devastating condition that impairs the upper limb and reduces mobility. Wearable robots can aid impaired users by supporting performance of Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). In the past decade, soft devices have become popular due to...

Intuitive endoscopic robot master device with image orientation correction.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: The camera of an endoscope is fixed to the device, and the image rotates together with the endoscope. This can lead to visual confusion for the user and incorrect image reading. The problem also occurs with endoscopic robots. Using a mast...

Robot assisted laparoscopic adrenalectomy: Should this be the new standard?

Urologia
INTRODUCTION: Minimal invasive surgeries (MIS) for large size adrenal tumors are still debatable. The objective is to evaluate the contemporary peri- and post-operative outcomes of patients undergoing (open = OA, laparoscopic = LA, and robotic = RA) ...

3D laparoscopic prostatectomy: results of multicentre study.

Scandinavian journal of urology
INTRODUCTION: Three-dimensional laparoscopic prostatectomy (3D LRP) is a potentially cost-effective option for robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP). Results for two-dimensional LRP and RALP are well documented; however, little has been pu...

Study on the correlation between early three-dimensional gait analysis and clinical efficacy after robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty.

Chinese journal of traumatology = Zhonghua chuang shang za zhi
PURPOSE: Robot-assisted technology is a forefront of surgical innovation that improves the accuracy of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). But whether the accuracy of surgery can improve the clinical efficacy still needs further research. The purpose of t...

Real-time time-optimal continuous multi-axis trajectory planning using the trajectory index coordination method.

ISA transactions
Real-time time-optimal trajectory planning exists in a wide range of applications such as computer numerical control (CNC) manufacturing, robotics and autonomous vehicles. Generally, the methods to generate time-optimal trajectory can be categorized ...

The learning curve for open and minimally-invasive kidney transplantation: a systematic review.

Minerva urology and nephrology
INTRODUCTION: There is lack of evidence on the impact of surgeons' learning curve on postoperative outcomes after open (OKT) or minimally-invasive (robot-assisted) kidney transplantation (RAKT). The aim of the review was to assess the learning curve ...

Are nephrometry scores accurate for the prediction of outcomes in patients with renal angiomyolipoma treated with robot-assisted partial nephrectomy? A multi-institutional analysis.

Minerva urology and nephrology
BACKGROUND: Prediction of complications and surgical outcomes is of outmost importance even in patients with benign renal masses. The aim of our study is to test the PADUA, SPARE and R.E.N.A.L. scores to predict nephron sparing surgery (NSS) outcomes...

Analysis of robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy using the da Vinci SP system.

Journal of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: As patients tend to be diagnosed with breast cancer at an early stage, the demand for better cosmetic outcomes has increased. Several studies revealed that robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (RNSM) shows favorable outcomes. The aim ...

Robotically performed diagnostic coronary angiography.

Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions : official journal of the Society for Cardiac Angiography & Interventions
OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to investigate the efficacy and safety of robotic diagnostic coronary angiography.
