Herramienta e-learning para la programación de robots mediante entorno web

2008

Este artículo describe los trabajos realizados para permitir a los estudiantes de diversas titulaciones de ingeniería la realización de prácticas a distancia en un laboratorio remoto desde un navegador web. Este hecho posibilita utilizar aparatos y maquinaria a distancia (inicialmente un robot industrial), pudiendo programarlos y visualizar el resultado de la programación realizada en tiempo real así como interactuar con la máquina. Adicionalmente, se propone al estudiante la realización de un curso de programación mediante diversas prácticas que debe realizar y el sistema web autoevalúa. Este trabajo ha requerido la integración de diversos elementos hardware y software

ROBOTIC VERSUS LAPAROSCOPIC INTRACORPOREAL ANASTOMOSIS IN RIGHT COLON CANCER SURGERY: ANALYSIS OF PATIENTS’ OPERATIVE OUTCOMES AND OPERATORS’ CURRENT…

2022

Background. Whereas laparoscopy proved to have better operative outcomes than open surgery over the years, robotic surgery provided no clear advantages over laparoscopy despite its more advanced technical features. However, robotic technology might help to achieve some advantageous procedures which are generally regarded as challenging, such as performing an intracorporeal anastomosis during a right colectomy. The objectives of this research project were: 1) to compare the outcomes of laparoscopic and robotic surgery in the case of a right colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis for colon cancer; 2) to find any factors influencing surgical decisions and outcomes. Methods. First, we conduc…

Uterine preservation in pelvic organ prolapse and urinary stress incontinence using robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery. Case report

2020

Highlights • Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) represents a common and bothersome condition in parous women. • The demand to “save” the uterus has fuelled a renewal of the surgical technique. • Robotic surgery was conceived with the intent to overcome the limitations of laparoscopic surgery. • The characteristics of the robotic system help surgeons to perform conservative management of POP.

Work-related upper limb musculoskeletal disorders in paediatric laparoscopic surgery. A multicenter survey.

2013

Abstract Background Surgeons are at risk for developing work-related musculoskeletal symptoms (WMS). The present study aims to examine the physical factors and their association with WMS among pediatric laparoscopic surgeons. Methods A questionnaire consisting of 21 questions was created and mailed to 25 pediatric laparoscopic surgeons (LG). 23/25 surgeons (92%) completed the survey. The questionnaire was analyzed and then split into 2 groups. Group 1 (LG1) included surgeons with greater laparoscopic experience, and group 2 (LG2) included surgeons with less important laparoscopic experience. In addition, we constructed and sent to the same surgeons a similar questionnaire focused on WMS aft…

Innovation in endocrine surgery: robotic versus laparoscopic adrenalectomy. Meta-analysis and systematic literature review.

2017

Several studies in the last years demonstrated the better surgical outcome of laparoscopic approach to adrenal gland. Laparoscopic surgery is more difficult to learn and requires different psychomotor skills than open surgery, especially with regard to complex maneuvers requiring precision and dexterity. The development of robotic platform with three-dimensional vision and increased degrees of freedom of the surgical instruments has the aim to overcome these problems. We performed a systematic literature review with meta-analysis to evaluate preoperative data and surgical outcomes of robotic adrenalectomy compared with laparoscopic technique. In September 2016 we performed a systematic lite…

Robotic Process Automation and Consequences for Knowledge Workers; a Mixed-Method Study

2020

Part 2: Fourth Industrial Revolution; International audience; This paper explores an overly optimistic and tenacious claim in the literature that robotic process automation (RPA) will only free knowledge workers from mundane tasks and introduce more interesting work. We explore this claim and other consequences for knowledge workers using data from a sequential quantitative-qualitative, mixed-method study in Norway. 88 RPA users from different sectors and industries where first surveyed to identify differences in utilization and effects from RPA. Then, differences were explored in 24 in-depth interviews in the public and private sectors, including financial industry, manufacturing, and oil …

P111 ROBOTIC-ASSISTED REPAIR OF IATROGENIC LEFT BRONCHUS PERFORATION DURING RAMIE – A CASE REPORT

2019

Abstract Background Iatrogenic bronchial injury during an esophageal surgery is a severe complication. Hence, immediate treatment is necessary to avoid further pulmonary complications and death. We present a case of an intraoperative bronchial injury caused by a bronchial tube cuff during a full robotic-assisted Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy (RAMIE). Case report A 64-year old patient with adenocarcinoma of the distal esophagus was planned for a RAMIE after completing neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy. Before beginning the thoracic phase, the anesthesist reported an airway leakage during the ventilation. During the transthoracic robotic assisted esophagectomy a perforation of the left main bronchus c…

Robotic total knee arthroplastyThe accuracy of CT-based component placement

2004

Accurate alignment of the components in total knee arthroplasty is important. By use of postoperative CT controls, we studied the ability of a robotic effector to accurately place and align total knee arthroplasty (TKA) components according to a purely CT-based preoperative plan.Robotic TKA was performed in 13 patients (6 men) with primary gonarthrosis. Locator screws were placed into femur and tibia under spinal anesthesia. A CT-scan including the femoral head, knee and ankle was performed. In the preoperative planning software, virtual components were positioned into the CT volume. In a second operation, the robot milled femur and tibia with a high-speed milling tool according to the preo…

Analitiski algoritmiskās domāšanas attīstības 5-7 gadus veciem bērniem robotikas nodarbībās

2019

Maģistra darba mērķis ir noskaidrot, kā analītiski algoritmiskā domāšana (computational thinking) tiek attīstīta Lego robotikas nodarbībās. Lai sasniegtu mērķi, darba autore veica iekļaujošu, strukturētu novērojumu. Novērojums tika veikts 4 grupām 3 mēnešu garumā. Kopumā tik aizpildīti 48 novērojuma protokoli. Novēroti tika 38 bērni vecumā no 5 līdz 7 gadiem. Novērojuma protokola pētāmās pazīmes tika izveidotas izmantojot destrukcijas metodi – jēdziens analītiski algoritmiskā domāšanas tika sadalīts sīkās vienībās. Pēc iegūto datu analīzes darba autore secina, ka analītiski algoritmiskā domāšana Lego robotikas nodarbībās tiek ļoti attīstīta. Vislielākā attīstība vērojama pētāmajās pazīmēs, …
