Metabolically efficient walking assistance using optimized timed forces at the waist.

Science robotics
The metabolic rate of walking can be reduced by applying a constant forward force at the center of mass. It has been shown that the metabolically optimal constant force magnitude minimizes propulsion ground reaction force at the expense of increased ...

A Safe and Compliant Noncontact Interactive Approach for Wheeled Walking Aid Robot.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Aiming at promptly and accurately detecting falls and drag-to gaits induced by asynchronous human-robot movement speed during assisted walking, a noncontact interactive approach with generality, compliance and safety is proposed in this paper, and is...

Application of Da Vinci Robot and Thoracoscopy in Radical Lung Cancer Surgery.

Journal of healthcare engineering
In this article, we have explored the feasibility and safety of Da Vinci's robotic surgery system in the radical resection of lung cancer. For this purpose, 73 cases of patients with lung cancer who underwent radical resection in the thoracic surgery...

Robotic Assisted Versus Manual Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Cardiology in review
INTRODUCTION: Robotics in percutaneous coronary intervention (R-PCI) has been one such area of advancement where potential benefits may include reduced operator radiation exposure, improved outcomes, and reduced rate of adverse events. Limited data e...

Robotic Resection of Retroperitoneal Perinephric Tumor. Application of Intraurethral Indocyanine Green Injection As an Adjunct to Avoid Ureteral Injury.

The American surgeon
The majority of retroperitoneal mass excision is performed via conventional "open" laparotomy due to concerns of technical difficulty and adequate oncological margins in cases of a malignant sarcoma. A very few cases of minimally invasive resection b...

Overground robotic training effects on walking and secondary health conditions in individuals with spinal cord injury: systematic review.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Overground powered lower limb exoskeletons (EXOs) have proven to be valid devices in gait rehabilitation in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). Although several articles have reported the effects of EXOs in these individuals, the few reviews a...

High Energy and Power Density Peptidoglycan Muscles through Super-Viscous Nanoconfined Water.

Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
Water-responsive (WR) materials that reversibly deform in response to humidity changes show great potential for developing muscle-like actuators for miniature and biomimetic robotics. Here, it is presented that Bacillus (B.) subtilis' peptidoglycan (...

Single-port robot plus one port (SP + 1) distal pancreatectomy using the new da Vinci SP system.

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
PURPOSE: Single-incision laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy has not been widely applied due to technical challenges and increased operative risks. The newly released da Vinci SP system has been introduced to overcome these limitations and offer impro...
