Transcontinental robot-assisted remote telesurgery: feasibility and potential applications.
OBJECTIVE To show the feasibility of performing surgery across transoceanic distances by using dedicated asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) telecommunication technology. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Technical limitations and the issue of time delay for transmission of digitized information across existing telecommunication lines had been a source of concern about the feasibility of performing a comp...
متن کاملTelesurgery. Remote monitoring and assistance during laparoscopy.
In comparison to open surgery, laparoscopy results in less postoperative pain, shorter hospitalization, more rapid return to the work force, a better cosmetic result, and a lower incidence of postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions. These advantages are indisputable when comparing large series for cholecystectomy and smaller series for pelvic lymph node dissection, nephrectomy, and bladder neck...
متن کاملComputer-assisted surgery and computer-assisted telesurgery in otorhinolaryngology.
Surgical preparation is enhanced by the availability of computer-generated three-dimensional models that allow surgeons to explore the surgical field in various projections prior to an actual operation. In fact, with adequate computed tomography images, an entire operation can be simulated beforehand so that surgeons can plan the safest and most effective approach and be prepared to avoid or ov...
متن کاملCurrent Medical Digital Applications-Telesurgery
Last years many efforts have been made for developing “smart” biomedical devices, which can change in high level the way of the healthcare provision for a large amount of population. For instance, people who suffer from chronic diseases such as diabetes or neurological disorders, the elderly and some groups of people with special needs can easily check repeatedly many times per day their health...
متن کاملFeasibility of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery: an evaluation of 35 robot-assisted laparoscopic cholecystectomies.
Laparoscopic surgery offers patients distinct benefits but is not without its disadvantages to surgeons in terms of maneuverability and visualization. Robotic telemanipulation systems were introduced with the objective of providing a solution to the problems in this field of surgery. The feasibility of robot-assisted surgery was assessed by performing 35 laparoscopic cholecystectomies with the ...
