Urologic latency time during uroflow stop test with electromyography: an incontinence detector in rehabilitation after robotic radical prostatectomy.

European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
BACKGROUND: Stress urinary incontinence (UI) is the most common presentation following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), but a postoperative non-invasive and objective test is still lacking. To assess pelvic floor integrity after RARP, we ...

A Novel Expert Coaching Model in Urology, Aimed at Accelerating the Learning Curve in Robotic Prostatectomy.

Journal of surgical education
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND: The surgical residency model assumes that upon completion, a surgeon is ready to practice and grow independently. However, many surgeons fail to improve after reaching proficiency, which in certain instances has correlated wi...

A Historical Perspective of the Evolution of Laparoscopic Surgeries in Urology.

Journal of endourology
Recent decades have seen the rapid progression of minimally invasive surgery in urology with continuing developments in robotic technology paving ways into a new era. In addition to these technological innovations, interests from urologists in develo...

Robot-assisted vs ultrasonography-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block vs local anaesthesia in urology: results of the UROTAP randomized trial.

BJU international
OBJECTIVES: To prospectively analyse robotically administered transperitoneal transversus abdominis plane (robot-assisted transversus abdominis plane [RTAP]) compared with both ultrasonography-guided transversus abdominis plane (UTAP) and local anaes...

Application of Improved Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Telesurgery with 5G Technology in Urology.

European urology
The demand for telesurgery is rising rapidly, but robust evidence regarding the feasibility of its application in urology is still rare. From March to October 2021, a surgeon-controlled surgical robot in a tertiary hospital in Qingdao was used to rem...

Robotic Surgery in Pediatric Urology: A Critical Appraisal of the GECI and SIVI Consensus of European Experts.

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
This study aimed to create a consensus statement on the indications, applications, and limitations of robotics in pediatric urology. After a panel and interactive discussion focused on pediatric robotics, a televoting with 10 questions was administ...

Streamlining surgical trays for common pediatric urology Procedures: A quality improvement initiative.

Journal of pediatric urology
INTRODUCTION: Procedures involving the external genitalia are the most common pediatric urologic operations. Our group identified excess instrumentation for these cases to be a potential cause of operating room (OR) inefficiency at our large, freesta...

Robot-assisted and conventional urology surgical procedures: comparison of average length of stay, economic status, operative time and patient's expenditure in a tertiary care hospital of North India.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robot-assisted surgeries allows the surgeons to operate using remote-controlled robotic arms that are more effective in comparison to conventional (open/laparoscopic) surgeries. However, there is substantial lack of evidence on the effectiveness of r...

Are there disparities in access to robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery among pediatric urology patients? US institutional experience.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVE: Literature suggests access to robotic surgery varies by race and payer status. We seek to investigate whether disparities exist in robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery among the pediatric urology population at our tertiary academic medical ...
