Should All Minimal Access Surgery Be Robot-Assisted? A Systematic Review into the Musculoskeletal and Cognitive Demands of Laparoscopic and Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Surgery.

Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract
BACKGROUND: Surgeons are among the most at risk of work-related musculoskeletal health decline because of the physical demands of surgery, which is also associated with cognitive fatigue. Minimally invasive surgery offers excellent benefits to patien...

Stereotactic Neurosurgical Robotics With Real-Time Patient Tracking: A Cadaveric Study.

Operative neurosurgery (Hagerstown, Md.)
BACKGROUND: Robotic neurosurgery may improve the accuracy, speed, and availability of stereotactic procedures. We recently developed a computer vision and artificial intelligence-driven frameless stereotaxy for nonimmobilized patients, creating an op...

The Making of : Can We Produce Artificial Companions by Programming Sentience into Robots?

The New bioethics : a multidisciplinary journal of biotechnology and the body
This essay discusses sentient robot (SR) research through the lens of suffering. First three kinds of suffering are considered: physical, psychological, and existential. Physical pain is shown to be primarily subjective, and distinctive psychological...

Real-Time Hierarchical Classification of Time Series Data for Locomotion Mode Detection.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
OBJECTIVE: Accurate real-time estimation of motion intent is critical for rendering useful assistance using wearable robotic prosthetic and exoskeleton devices during user-initiated motions. We aim to evaluate hierarchical classification as a strateg...

Incidence and resolution of de novo hydronephrosis after pediatric robot-assisted laparoscopic extravesical ureteral reimplantation for primary vesicoureteral reflux.

Journal of pediatric urology
INTRODUCTION: With the advent of robot-assisted laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation (RALUR) for primary vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), understanding and minimizing its complications continues to be critical. Incidence of de novo hydronephrosis after R...

Assessment of Pain Onset and Maximum Bearable Pain Thresholds in Physical Contact Situations.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
With the development of robot technology, robot utilization is expanding in industrial fields and everyday life. To employ robots in various fields wherein humans and robots share the same space, human safety must be guaranteed in the event of a huma...

Using Robot-Based Variables during Upper Limb Robot-Assisted Training in Subacute Stroke Patients to Quantify Treatment Dose.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In post-stroke motor rehabilitation, treatment dose description is estimated approximately. The aim of this retrospective study was to quantify the treatment dose using robot-measured variables during robot-assisted training in patients with subacute...

Contrastive Learning for Image Registration in Visual Teach and Repeat Navigation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Visual teach and repeat navigation (VT&R) is popular in robotics thanks to its simplicity and versatility. It enables mobile robots equipped with a camera to traverse learned paths without the need to create globally consistent metric maps. Although ...

On Slip Detection for Quadruped Robots.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Legged robots are meant to autonomously navigate unstructured environments for applications like search and rescue, inspection, or maintenance. In autonomous navigation, a close relationship between locomotion and perception is crucial; the robot has...
