Robotic surgical platforms were first developed with telesurgery in mind. Conceptualized by NASA and the military to provide surgical expertise to remote locations, some telesurgical success has been documented, but progress has been held back by communication bandwidth limitations. Telepresence surgery, where the surgeon is in proximity to the patient but is provided with an ergonomic console ...

BACKGROUND As cesarean sections become a more common mode of delivery, they have become the most likely cause of vesicouterine fistula formation. The associated pathology with repeat cesarean deliveries may make repair of these fistulas difficult. Computer-enhanced telesurgery, also known as robotic-assisted surgery, offers a 3-dimensional view of the operative field and allows for intricate m...

Ultra low delay video transmission is becoming increasingly important. Video-based applications with ultra low delay requirements range from teleoperation scenarios such as controlling drones or telesurgery to autonomous control of dynamic processes using computer vision algorithms applied on real-time video. To evaluate the performance of the video transmission chain in such systems, it is imp...

The problem of position tracking in teleoperation systems containing latencies and dynamical uncertainties is addressed this work. In many applications, such as telesurgery, safe interaction with the external environment a factor which may undermine synchronization positions. For nondestructive contact environment, addition to an errorless steady-state tracking, closed-loop system requires have...

Objective This systematic review aims to provide a summary of the use real-time telementoring, telesurgical consultation and telesurgery in surgical procedures patients low/middle-income countries (LMICs). Design A was conducted accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses statement Cochrane Collaboration published guidelines. Data sources EMBASE, MEDLINE, Coch...

To the editor: With great interest we read the article “Total laparoscopic hysterectomy versus da Vinci robotic hysterectomy: is using the robot beneficial?” by Soto et al. [1], which was published in your journal. The introduction of any new surgical system is expected to provide added value for existing ones, and we absolutely accept the conclusion of this excellent article that with experien...

The Internet of Things (IoT) technology has been widely introduced to the existing medical system. An eHealth system based on IoT devices gained widespread popularity. In this article, we propose an framework provide autonomous solution for patients with interventional cardiovascular diseases. framework, wearable sensors are used collect a patient's health data, which is daily monitored by remo...

With modern medicine and healthcare services improving in leaps bounds, the integration of telemedicine has helped expanding these specialised to remote locations. Healthcare telerobotic systems form a component telemedicine, which allows medical intervention from distance. It been nearly 40 years since robotic technology, PUMA 560, was introduced perform stereotaxic biopsy brain. The use telem...
