Book Robotic Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery

Download or read book Robotic Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery written by Shawn Tsuda and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minimally invasive surgery has impacted the outcomes of surgery more than any technology since the development of sterile technique. The hard science has demonstrated that decrease in wound complications and recovery time has created the biggest gap with open approaches to surgery. The total economic benefit may be unfathomable when looked at comprehensively. Integral to the rise of minimal access and therapeutic techniques in surgery has been the growth of technological improvements over time. Beginning with insufflators, videoscopy, and energy devices, that evolution has continued into the development of tele-surgical devices that feature full articulation of instruments, high-resolution 3-D optics, and computer assisted movement. This has come with controversy – as the dominant manufacturer of robotic assisted devices, Intuitive Surgical, and their generations of da Vinci surgical platforms, holds enough market share to spur cries of monopoly and financial excess. However, with over 3000 world-wide systems in use, and over 6000 peer-reviewed research articles, the impact of robotic surgery cannot be ignored. The current state of data suggests equivalency in most procedures with regard to traditional outcome measures, equal or somewhat elevated costs, with specific areas of superiority. The first section of this textbook, Surgical Robots, covers the history, economics, training, and medico-legal aspects of robotic surgery that will be of interest to students, residents, fellows, surgical staff, and administrators or public health specialists who seek to gain a comprehensive background on robotic surgery, or justification for purchasing a robotic system for their institution. Surgeons will also find this background valuable to their practice, to give context to their procedures so they can better counsel their patients, help with advocating for robotic platform purchases, and proactively prepare themselves for medico-legal issues. The chapter on legal issues will have specific instances of robotic surgery-related lawsuits and their outcomes, a first for robotic surgery texts. The second section of this textbook, Robotic Procedures, will contain a comprehensive catalogue of procedures that have been performed robotically in general surgery, gynecology, urology, plastic surgery, cardiothoracic, and otolaryngology. Each author will cover the existing literature, preoperative planning, room and patient setup, steps of the procedure, and postoperative care. Standardized room maps and port placement will help the student, resident, fellow, surgeon or OR Staff to quickly reference these before cases. Each chapter will also cover the specific equipment needs and expected complexity of the procedures, allowing administrators to better gauge how to prepare for, or ration, use or their robotic resources. The final section, Future of Robotics, will give the entire scope of audience a look into what exciting advancements in the field are on the horizon. This textbook is a complete resource for robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery, covering the history, current state, technical and clinical aspects, and future considerations that may be of interest to any who has a role, stake, or curiosity regarding robotic surgery.

Book The Route to Patient Safety in Robotic Surgery

Download or read book The Route to Patient Safety in Robotic Surgery written by Lorenzo Grespan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-13 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of a new technology in a consolidated field has the potential to disrupt usual practices and create a fertile ground for errors. An example is robotic surgery that is now used in most surgical specialties, pushed by technology developers and enthusiastic surgeons. To analyze the potential impact of robotic surgery on patient safety, a consortium of major European Universities started the project SAFROS whose findings are summarized and further elaborated in the three parts of this book. Part one describes safety in complex systems such as surgery, how this may disrupt the traditional surgical workflow, how safety can be monitored, and the research questions that must be posed. Part two of the book describes the main findings of this research, by identifying the risks of robotic surgery and by describing where its ancillary technologies may fail. This part addresses features and evaluation of anatomic imaging and modeling, actions in the operating room, robot monitoring and control, operator interface, and surgical training. Part three of the book draws the conclusions and offers suggestions on how to limit the risks of medical errors. One possible approach is to use automation to monitor and execute parts of an intervention, thus suggesting that robotics and artificial intelligence will be major elements of the operating room of the future.

Book The Use of the Da Vinci Surgical Robotic System for Telesurgery and Telementoring

Download or read book The Use of the Da Vinci Surgical Robotic System for Telesurgery and Telementoring written by Abdullah Mohammed H. Maghazil and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As robotic surgery was emerging fast into the medical field, many professionals had predicted that telesurgery will be widely available in the near future. Some challenges and issues faced telesurgery that delayed its adoption while robotic surgery was gaining popularity in different surgical specialties. In this research, I will indicate some of the challenges opposing telesurgery and telementoring, how to solve them, and how to adopt the new technology into hospital networking systems which may provide remote surgeries for different purposes with ease and feasibility. The study was conducted through two different surveys targeting healthcare providers and surgical robotic system surgeons and professionals to gain insight on the opinions and attitudes relating to telesurgery. It was predicted that healthcare providers and robotic system surgeons would support telesurgery and all its features, whenever feasible. The results showed that most healthcare providers surveyed supported telesurgery while the majority of robotic system surgeons did not support telesurgery. Even though with the possible feasibility of implementing telesurgery and telementoring, there are a lot of risks and fear associated with the technology. This research paper will also target these issues and possible implementation methods that will lead to maximizing benefits and minimizing the disadvantages of remote surgical communications.
