Friends from the Future: A Scoping Review of Research into Robots and Computer Agents to Combat Loneliness in Older People.

Clinical interventions in aging
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Loneliness is a common problem in older adults and contributes to poor health. This scoping review aimed to synthesize and report evidence on the effectiveness of interventions using social robots or computer agents to reduce lone...

Introduction of robotic surgery does not negatively affect cardiothoracic surgery resident experience.

Journal of robotic surgery
The objective of this study was to evaluate the educational impact following the implementation of a robotic thoracic surgery program on cardiothoracic (CT) surgery trainees. We hypothesized that the introduction of a robotic thoracic surgery program...

Improved perioperative outcomes and reduced inflammatory stress response in malignant robot-assisted colorectal resections: a retrospective cohort study of 298 patients.

World journal of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted surgery is increasingly implemented for the resection of colorectal cancer, although the scientific evidence for adopting this technique is still limited. This study's main objective was to compare short-term complication r...

Multidisciplinary Approach to Robotic Resection of Abdominal Wall Endometriosis and Mesh Repair.

Journal of minimally invasive gynecology
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate a technique for robot-assisted laparoscopic excision of abdominal wall endometriosis and mesh reinforcement of the subsequent defect.

Enabling Autonomous Colonoscopy Intervention Using a Robotic Endoscope Platform.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Robotic endoscopes have the potential to dramatically improve endoscopy procedures, however current attempts remain limited due to mobility and sensing challenges and have yet to offer the full capabilities of traditional tools. Endoscopic...

Robot-assisted Extraperitoneal Para-aortic Lymphadenectomy Is Associated with Fewer Surgical Complications: A Post Hoc Analysis of the STELLA-2 Randomized Trial.

Journal of minimally invasive gynecology
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate if extraperitoneal para-aortic lymphadenectomy (PALND) using a robot-assisted approach was associated with fewer complications than all other approaches (conventional laparoscopic transperitoneal or extraperitoneal and ro...

Oncologic Outcomes of Intracorporeal Extracorporeal Urinary Diversion After Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy: A Multi-Institutional Korean Study.

Journal of endourology
We aimed to compare the oncologic outcomes of intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) and extracorporeal urinary diversion (ECUD) following robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) in patients diagnosed with bladder cancer. Medical records of 730 p...

Robotic total pelvic exenteration - a video vignette.

Automatic segmentation of fish midlines for optimizing robot design.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
While fish use continuous and flexible bodies to propel themselves, fish robots are often made from interconnected segments. How many segments do robots need to represent fish movements accurately? We propose a new method to automatically determine p...
