Development, validation, and usability evaluation of machine learning algorithms for predicting personalized red blood cell demand among thoracic surgery patients.

International journal of medical informatics
INTRODUCTION: Preparing appropriate red blood cells (RBCs) before surgery is crucial for improving both the efficacy of perioperative workflow and patient safety. In particular, thoracic surgery (TS) is a procedure that requires massive transfusion w...

Assessment of online information on robotic cardiac and thoracic surgery.

Journal of robotic surgery
Online health resources are important for patients seeking perioperative information on robotic cardiac and thoracic surgery. The value of the resources depends on their readability, accuracy, content, quality, and suitability for patient use. We sys...

[Robotics in thoracic surgery].

Pneumologie (Stuttgart, Germany)
The increasing diffusion of the robotic-assisted technique in thoracic surgery (RATS) in Germany was initially delayed in comparison with other countries. Therefore, there is a large potential to implement the volume of the surgical procedures perfor...

Technical Aspects of Robotic First Rib Resection.

Thoracic surgery clinics
Robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for the treatment of thoracic outlet syndrome is a novel approach that continues to increase in popularity due to advantages compared with traditional open first rib resection. Following publication of the Society...

[Robot-assisted Lung Surgery: Techniques, Evidence and Data on Anatomical Resections].

Zentralblatt fur Chirurgie
Thanks to improved visualisation and instruments with an endowrist function, robot-assisted thoracic surgery has led to technical progress in thoracic surgery. This makes it easier to carry out complex thoracic surgical interventions, e.g. with an in...

Development of a robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) program. Lessons learned after 2500 cases.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robotic surgery provides significant advantages in terms of an optimal three-dimensional and magnified view of the surgical field, superior maneuverability of surgical instruments, removal of surgeon's tremor and excellent ergonomics. Nonetheless, th...
