Development of a Tele-Surgical Training Robot and Simulator
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Al-Zahrawi is a training robot and simulator for minimal invasive surgery (MIS) or laparoscopic surgery that is being developed at the NUST School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science in collaboration with Holy Family Hospital, Pakistan. This ICTR&D funded project is primarily focused towards developing a cost effective solution for training surgeons for conventional and robotically assisted MIS procedures. This document presents a brief overview of MIS and the usage of surgical robots in this recently introduced surgical technique. The main focus of the paper is on the design of the Al-Zahrawi system.

Tele-surgery simulation with a patient organ model for robotic surgery training.
Robotic systems are increasingly being incorporated into general laparoscopic and thoracoscopic surgery to perform procedures such as cholecystectomy and prostatectomy. Robotic assisted surgery allows the surgeon to conduct minimally invasive surgery with increased accuracy and with potential benefits for patients. However, current robotic systems have their limitations. These include the narro...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Surgical Robot for Remote In Vivo Training
The Laparobot is a tele-operated robot designed specifically for training surgeons in advanced laparoscopic techniques. The Laparobot allows a student to practice surgery on a remotely located animal. The system uses standard laparoscopic tools for both the student’s control interface and for performing the in vivo surgery, thereby providing a realistic training platform for non-robotic laparos...
متن کاملThe effect of pressure ulcer prevention care training by tele-nursing on the extent and severity of pressure ulcers in patients with stroke
Background & Aim: Patients with stroke are at risk for pressure ulcers. Continuous presence and direct care of the nurse in preventing this complication is not possible in all cases. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of pressure ulcer prevention care training by tele-nursing on the amount and severity of pressure ulcers in patients with stroke. Methods: This quasi-e...
متن کاملDevelopment of Tele-robotic Interface System for the Hot-line Maintenance
This paper describes the development of the tele-robotic interface for a hot-line maintenance robot system. One of the main issues in designing humanrobot interface is to plan the control procedure for each part of the robotic system. Another issue is that the actual degree of freedom (DOF) in the hot-line maintenance robot system is much greater than that of available control devices such as j...
متن کاملThe System Development of Unmanned Vehicle for the Tele-operated System Interfaced with Driving Simulator
In this paper, the integration of driving simulator and unmanned vehicle by means of new concept for better performance is suggested. But, autonomous navigation system is one of the most difficult research topics from the point of view of several constrains on mobility, speed of vehicle and lack of environmental information. In these day, however, many innovations on the vehicle provide the app...
