A neurotechnological aid for semi-autonomous suction in robotic-assisted surgery

Abstract: Adoption of robotic-assisted surgery has steadily increased as it improves the surgeon’s dexterity and visualization. Despite these advantages, the success of a robotic procedure is highly dependent on the availability of a proficient surgical assistant that can collaborate with the surgeon. With the introduction of novel medical devices, the surgeon has taken over some of the surgical assistant’s tasks to increase their independence. This, however, has also resulted in surgeons experiencing higher levels of c… Show more

“… 43 To assess the cognition levels of surgeons during robotic surgery, machine learning-based CSTs are able to analyze physiological parameters such as electroencephalogram and eye behaviour to detect moments of high cognitive load; in response to cognitive overload, the semi-autonomous program may take control of simple tasks such as blood suction and irrigation. 44 More invasive neurostimulation techniques were also tested; transcranial direct current stimulation on surgeons completing a knot typing task in robotic surgery was reported to have increased knot tensile strength. 45 Cognitive surgical technologies (CSTs) incorporating augmented reality (AR) and image guidance have shown promising results in improving precision and reducing errors in various surgical procedures.…”
