Enhancing emotion regulation with an in situ socially assistive robot among LGBTQ+ youth with self-harm ideation: protocol for a randomised controlled trial.

BMJ open
INTRODUCTION: Purrble, a socially assistive robot, was codesigned with children to support in situ emotion regulation. Preliminary evidence has found that LGBTQ+ youth are receptive to Purrble and find it to be an acceptable intervention to assist wi...

Effect of real-time oxygen consumption versus fixed flow-based low flow anesthesia on oxygenation and perfusion: a randomized, single-blind study.

Medical gas research
Although low-flow anesthesia is widely used due to its various advantages, there are concerns about potential and relative hypoxia. Furthermore, oxygen is also a drug with benefits and adverse effects. We aimed to evaluate and compare the effect of r...

Comparative Efficacy of Robotic and Manual Massage Interventions on Performance and Well-Being: A Randomized Crossover Trial.

Sports health
BACKGROUND: Manual massage (MM) interventions can improve psychophysiological states of relaxation and well-being. In this context, robotic massage (RM) represents a promising, but currently understudied, solution.

Blinded, randomized trial of sonographer versus AI cardiac function assessment.

Nature
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been developed for echocardiography, although it has not yet been tested with blinding and randomization. Here we designed a blinded, randomized non-inferiority clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05140642; no o...

Technical evaluation of robotic tele-cholecystectomy: a randomized single-blind controlled pilot study.

Journal of robotic surgery
Although robotic telesurgery is growing in popularity, the benefits of telesurgery compared to local surgery are unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of robotic tele-cholecystectomy with a commercial line using the Saroa (Riverfield,...

Hybrid robot-assisted gait training for motor function in subacute stroke: a single-blind randomized controlled trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) is a practical treatment that can complement conventional rehabilitation by providing high-intensity repetitive training for patients with stroke. RAGT systems are usually either of the end-effector or ...

Micro-Hand Robot-Assisted Versus da Vinci Robot-Assisted Cholecystectomy: A Multi-centre, Randomized Controlled Trial.

World journal of surgery
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of micro-hand robot-assisted cholecystectomy (MRC) by comparing the clinical outcomes of patients with benign gallbladder disease treated with micro-hand or da Vinci robot-assisted cholecystectomy (DR...

Effects of robotic rehabilitation on recovery of hand functions in acute stroke: A preliminary randomized controlled study.

Acta neurologica Scandinavica
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of EMG-driven robotic rehabilitation on hand motor functions and daily living activities of patients with acute ischemic stroke.
