Looks can be deceiving: Gaze pattern differences between novices and experts during placement of central lines.

American journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to determine whether gaze patterns could differentiate expertise during simulated ultrasound-guided Internal Jugular Central Venous Catheterization (US-IJCVC) and if expert gazes were different between simu...

Predicting the Health Status of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Data-Link System Based on a Bayesian Network.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) require data-link system to link ground data terminals to the real-time controls of each UAV. Consequently, the ability to predict the health status of a UAV data-link system is vital for safe and efficient operations....

How can the presence of a surgical care practitioner improve training for staff who are learning how to scrub for robotics cases in a urology theatre?

Journal of perioperative practice
AIM: This study examines how a surgical care practitioner can contribute to the learning needs of junior scrub staff learning to scrub for urological robotics cases. Key themes include education, technical training, non-technical skills, patient safe...

Physiological Responses and Perceived Exertion During Robot-Assisted and Body Weight-Supported Gait After Stroke.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
INTRODUCTION: Physiological responses are rarely considered during walking after stroke and if considered, only during a short period (3-6 minutes). The aims of this study were to examine physiological responses during 30-minute robot-assisted and bo...

Could Robots Help Older People with Age-Related Nutritional Problems? Opinions of Potential Users.

International journal of environmental research and public health
The rapid development of new technologies has recently raised interest in the use of assistive robots in the care of older people. The success or failure of robots' implementation is mediated by their acceptance by users. The aim of the study was to...

[Interest of robotic stereotactic radiosurgery in the management of brain metastases: Results of a retrospective, single center analysis].

Neuro-Chirurgie
PURPOSE: The management of malignant brain metastases becomes a main issue for the treatment of patients, because of the survival extension related to the improvement in systemic treatments. Robotic stereotactic radiosurgery (RSR) is a new approach i...

Planar conformity of movements in 3D reaching tasks for persons with Multiple Sclerosis.

Human movement science
Robotic rehabilitation of the upper limb has been proved beneficial for people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). In order to provide task-specific therapy for MS, given its complex impairing nature, it is desired to take advantage of the robots' ability ...

Effect of Stride Management Assist Gait Training for Poststroke Hemiplegia: A Single Center, Open-Label, Randomized Controlled Trial.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND: Poststroke gait disorders negatively impact activities of daily living. Rehabilitation for stroke patients is aimed at improving their walking ability, balance, and quality of life. Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) is associated with a...

Robotic hip joint testing: Development and experimental protocols.

Medical engineering & physics
The use of robotic systems combined with force sensing is emerging as the gold standard for in vitro biomechanical joint testing, due to the advantage of controlling all six degrees of freedom independently of one another. This paper describes a nove...

Frameless robot-assisted stereoelectroencephalography for refractory epilepsy in pediatric patients: accuracy, usefulness, and technical issues.

Acta neurochirurgica
BACKGROUND: Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) is an effective technique to help to locate and to delimit the epileptogenic area and/or to define relationships with functional cortical areas. We intend to describe the surgical technique and verify t...
