Robot-assisted versus video-assisted thoraco-laparoscopic McKeown's esophagectomy for esophageal cancer: a propensity score-matched analysis of minimally invasive approaches.

Journal of robotic surgery
Minimally invasive esophagectomy for esophageal cancer decreases overall complication rate and leads to faster postoperative recovery. Robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy is becoming more common. Its three-dimensional view and wristed ins...

Simplified robot-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection for esophageal and gastric lesions: a randomized controlled porcine study (with videos).

Gastrointestinal endoscopy
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Effective countertraction is a main challenging issue in endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Several countertraction methods have been developed to address this issue. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of ESD ...

Hospital Ownership, Geographic Region, Patient Age, Comorbidities, and Insurance Status Appear to Influence Patient Selection Robot-Assisted Ureteral Reimplantation for Benign Disease: A Population-Based Analysis.

Journal of endourology
Robot-assisted ureteral reimplantation (RAUR) is a relatively new minimally invasive procedure. As such, research is lacking, and the largest adult cohort studies include fewer than 30 patients. Our aim was to be the first population-based study to ...

Comparative effects of EMG-driven robot-assisted therapy versus task-oriented training on motor and daily function in patients with stroke: a randomized cross-over trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted hand training has shown positive effects on promoting neuromuscular control. Since both robot-assisted therapy and task-oriented training are often used in post-stroke rehabilitation, we raised the question of whether two i...

A tale of two robots: Operating times and learning curves in robot-assisted lumbar fusion.

Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia
Robotic assistance technologies are being incorporated into minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) to minimize radiation exposure to the patient and operating staff. However, they introduce new issues including increased...

Robot-assisted versus laparoscopic approach to concurrent bariatric surgery and hiatal hernia repair: propensity score matching analysis using the 2015-2018 MBSAQIP.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Up to 37% of class three obesity patients have a Hiatal Hernia (HH). Most of the existent HHs get repaired at the time of bariatric surgery. Although the robotic platform might offer potential technical advantages over traditional laparos...

Single-Port Retzius-Sparing Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: Feasibility and Early Outcomes.

Journal of endourology
To determine safety and feasibility of single-port Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (SP-rsRARP) using the da Vinci SP (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA) robotic platform in men with adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Twenty-eight ...

PRCTC: a machine learning model for prediction of response to corticosteroid therapy in COVID-19 patients.

Aging
Corticosteroid has been proved to be one of the few effective treatments for COVID-19 patients. However, not all the patients were suitable for corticosteroid therapy. In this study, we aimed to propose a machine learning model to forecast the respon...
