Warm-Up Before Robotic Hysterectomy Does Not Improve Trainee Operative Performance: A Randomized Trial

Use of computer or robotic technology to assist surgeons in performing gynaecological surgery This updated review was originally covered by two separate Cochrane reviews on robot-assisted surgery for benign and malignant gynaecological disease. The question Laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery is widely used in gynaecology. Robot-assisted surgery (RAS) is a relatively new type of laparoscopic surgery that allows the surgeon to conduct the operation from a computer console situated away from the patient via remote-controlled mechanical arms attached to the surgical table. RAS is already in use in several countries for gynaecological surgery, particularly for hysterectomy (removal of the uterus/womb), and it has been reported to be useful for myomectomy (removal of uterine fibroids), tubal reanastomosis (joining two ends of one fallopian tube to restore fertility), sacrocolpopexy (designed to repair vaginal vault prolapse, when the uppermost part of the vagina slips downwards), and other procedures for benign (non-cancerous) disease. It has also been used for Robot-assisted surgery in gynaecology (Review)

System events: readily accessible features for surgical phase detection

et al. 2016

Our findings demonstrate that system events features are useful for automatically detecting surgical phase. Events contain phase information that cannot be obtained from motion data and that would require advanced computer vision algorithms to extract from a video. Many of these events are not specific to robotic surgery and can easily be recorded in non-robotic surgical modalities. In future work, we plan to combine information from system events, tool motion, and videos to automate phase detection in surgical procedures.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
