By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – New research on Surgery - Surgical Tec hnology is the subject of a report. According to news originating from Uppsala, Sweden, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “The introduction of robotic assistance in surgical practice has led to advancements such as the MUSA-2 robot ic system that was designed for microsurgical procedures. Advantages of this sys tem include tremor filtration and motion scaling.” Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Uppsala University Hospital, “Initial studies showed promising results in skill acquisition for rob ot-assisted microsurgery. This study evaluated the learning curve for microsurgi cal anastomosis with and without robotic assistance among surgeons of varying ex perience levels. Fifteen surgeons were divided into 3 groups (novice, intermedia te, and expert) based on their microsurgical experience. They performed 10 anast omoses by hand and 10 with robotic assistance on synthetic polyvinyl alcohol ves sels (diameter of 2 mm) in a laboratory setting. Participants were timed and mis takes such as backwall and leakage were assessed and recorded. Demographic infor mation was collected. Statistical differences were found in manual anastomosis t imes between the intermediate and novice groups compared to the experts (p <0.01). However, no statistical difference was found in the mean time between gr oups for the robot-assisted anastomoses. . Experts had the fastest completion ti me at the end of the 10 robotic session, finishing at 14 min, compared to 33 min at the 2 session. All groups reduced their mean time in half through their 10 r obotic sessions. This study indicated similarities in the learning curves for ro bot-assisted anastomosis among surgeons with varied experience levels. Experts e xcelled technically in manual anastomoses, but robot-assistance enabled novice a nd intermediate surgeons to perform comparably to the experts.”
