Filter by:Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy has gained increasing popularity compared to open radical prostatectomy with its advantages such as low blood loss, reduced blood transfusion rate, low complication rate, and shortened hospital stay. Since robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy should be performed in the limited retroperitoneal area, insufflation of the abdomen with carbon dioxide (CO2) (pneumoperitoneum) and steep Trendelenburg position are required to provide better surgical vision. Low-flow anesthesia warms and moistens the inhaled gases, creating a more physiological breathing atmosphere during anesthesia. In addition, it provides cost advantage by reducing inhalation agent consumption and reduces atmospheric pollution. Studies show that long-term minimal flow anesthesia is safe and advantageous for non-laparoscopic surgery. The aim of this study is to compare low-flow (1L/min) with normal flow (3lt/min) desflurane anesthesia in terms of hemodynamic and respiratory parameters, inhalation agent consumption and soda lime consumption for robotic assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy surgery. The secondary aim of the study is to compare the effects of low-flow and normal-flow anesthesia in the steep trendelenburg position (45°) used for robotically assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.
Investigators aimed to investigate the effects of video game habits, duration of experience, and training in different surgical clinics on the success of robotic surgery simulators. In this prospective, observational, comparative, and multi-clinic study, all participants played the Temple Run and Piano Tiles 2™ mobile games for one month after responding to a questionnaire including their sociodemographic characteristics, surgical experience, and past and current video game experience. At the end of the study period, participants experienced four different robotic surgery simulator tasks (Camera Targeting 1, Energy Switching 1, Ring & Rail 2, Vertical Defect Suturing) in the da Vinci® Skills Simulator™. Additionally, sociodemographic data were statistically analyzed with mobile game scores, and 13 different performance scores were obtained from the simulator.
This prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label study aims to evaluate the perioperative safety and feasibility of specimen extraction through anus regarding robotic radical excision of rectal cancer.
The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze donor and recipient outcomes after robotic-assisted donor nephrectomy and hand-assisted laparoscopic donornephrectomy.
This is a prospective single center cohort study on effect of a novel robotic surgical system for performance of minimally invasive surgery in multiple specialties. The targeted procedures include Urological, upper and lower GI robotic surgeries and the expected sample size will be 20 patients. The clinical outcomes for assessment include background demographics, operative time, perioperative complications as well as completion rate of procedure, hospital stay and recovery.
Robotic surgery for common surgical procedures is on the rise despite limited evidence to support its clinical benefit. We intend to to map and characterize the prevalence of the patients'expectation that robotic surgery might be superior to open or laparoscopic procedures and to identify the sociodemographic, clinical and organisational factors associated with this expectation.
Robotic rectal cancer resection with natural orifice extraction is a recently developed minimally invasive surgery for patients with rectal cancer. However, it's safety and feasibility remain undiscussed and controversial. This study reported the clinical outcomes and prognostic factors of robotic assisted rectal cancer resection alone vs. robotic rectal cancer resection with natural orifice extraction to discuss aforementioned question.
Obesity has become a significant health problem in Canada. When conservative efforts to lose weight fail, bariatric surgical procedures are often considered. Today, the most common bariatric procedures in North America are Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) and Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG). For many reasons, an initial bariatric procedure may require surgical revision. Some reasons include weight regain, failed weight loss or other acute and chronic complications not related to weight loss. In these cases, it may be indicated that a procedure be reversed inor converted to another type of bariatric procedure. Regardless of the planned intervention, revisional surgery is always more difficult than the initial procedure mainly due to surgical scarring and altered anatomy. Though revisional bariatric surgery has been shown to be safe, our hope is to improve the safety profile by utilizing robotic surgery. Robotic surgery can facilitate more complex procedures by providing superior imaging and freedom of movement during the procedure. The aim of our study is to evaluate prospectively the outcomes of robotic compared to laparoscopic revisional bariatric surgery in terms of perioperative outcomes such as complication rates, operative time and readmissions as well as weight loss/comorbidity resolution (diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea) where applicable.
The purpose of this study is to explore the clinical efficacy between robotic and laparoscopic total gastrectomy in patients with clinical Stage I gastric cancer
The purpose of this study is to explore the clinical outcomes of the robotic distal gastrectomy for patients with gastric adenocarcinoma(cT1-4a, N-/+, M0).
