Clinical Trial Summary

To evaluate the safety and feasibility of a Foot Controlled Robotic Endoscope Enabled Robot (FREE) in performing functional endoscopic sinus surgery to answer the two key questions:

1. Is the FREE robot feasible to use in patients for endoscopic sinus surgery?

2. Is the FREE robot safe to use in patients for endoscopic sinus surgery?


Description:

Through previous cadaver experiments we have demonstrated and experimentally validated a new foot-controlled robotic endoscope holder prototype that allows the surgeon to directly manipulate surgical instruments with both hands at all times. The conducted ex-vivo cadaver test, corroborated the feasibility of the robotic prototype. However the next step requires further clinical trials to evaluate its use in endoscopic sinus surgery in patients that is the purpose of this study

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Conversion The rate of conversions to normal holding of the endoscope Intraoperative
Primary Perioperative complications Assessment of perioperative complications Within 30 days postoperative
Secondary Surgical outcomes Operative time Intraoperative and postoperative 2 weeks and 30 days
Secondary Surgical outcomes Estimated blood loss Intraoperative and postoperative 2 weeks and 30 days
Secondary Surgical Outcomes Length of stay Intraoperative and postoperative 2 weeks and 30 days
Secondary Quality of life The Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS; possible score of 0-12) is the sum of 4 individual participant-assessed symptom scores for rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching, and sneezing, each evaluated using a scale of 0=None, 1=Mild, 2=Moderate, or 3=Severe. Higher scores represent a worse outcome Within 30 days postoperative
