Literature Review on Surgical Robots By Baker Salama School of sicence technology Middlesex university, Hendon, London Abstract Medical Robotics is a wide filed that focuses on developing electronic and mechanical devices for clinical use. The main goal of this field is to enable new medical ways and techniques by providing assistence to the doctors during surgiers and also provid new capabilites to people who are desabled. Medical robotics is a new and a young filed. The very first recorded medical procedure happened in 1985 for a brain biospy. It has a unique and incrediable improving the precision and capabilites of physicians when performing surgical operation. And since then it is believed that the field will grow continusly as modern and improved technology become available. This review delivers a comperhensive overview about medical robotics field and its applications. It begins with an introducion about robotics, followed brefily by a historical review of their use in the medical field. Also clinical applications in several different medical specialties are discussed. This review will discuss also tec hnology challenges and areas for future reaserch. Introducion In the last decade, robotics have emerged into many fields, medical field is one of them. The word †robot† gives many different thoughts and images to human beings. Some may think of a human-robot look alike, others of an industrial arm or device. In the filed of medical robotics, theShow MoreRelatedThe Use Of The Vessel Sealer Builds On The Co2 Environment730 Words   |  3 Pageshaving robotic surgery as opposed to laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic surgery is performed on the abdomen or pelvis. The promotional materials, researchers report online in the Journal for Healthcare Quality, overestimate the benefits of surgical robots, largely ignore the risks and are strongly influenced by the product’s manufacturer. The public regards a hospital’s official website as an authoritative source of medical information in the voice of a physician,† says Marty Makary, M.D., M.PRead MoreThe Surgical Management Of Gynaecological Disorders1223 Words   |  5 PagesThe surgical management of gynaecological disorders has progressed dramatically with the introduction of minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques. The recent application of robotic technology for minimally invasive surgery is an additional refinement that has been widely adopted in the United States and elsewhere. Although this is not supported by evidence-based studies on cost, clinical outcomes and patient safety, the ergonomic design of the console minimizes operator fatigue and muscle strainRead MoreRobotic Prostatectomy For Localised Prostate Cancer : An Overview For The Non Specialist1730 Words   |  7 PagesRobotic Prostatectomy for Localised Prostate Cancer: An overview for the non-specialist Introduction In 2001, the first case series of robot assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomies (RALPs) using the da Vinci operating system were reported. Since then its use has grown exponentially, much more so in the US than the UK. Some argue that aggressive marketing by manufacturers, operating preference by surgeons, and high demand from patients have all led the the rapid adaptation of RALP without theRead MorePresent Day Robotic Surgery and Beyond8509 Words   |  35 PagesRobotic surgery has been on the rise since its approval in 1997, spreading to hospitals and surgical centers all over the United States and seen Internationally. This increase in technology in the medical field could be either a remarkable change or the medical industries worst â€Å"Terminator† nightmares. This type of surgery has been revolutionary to the surgical field, by creating machines that are capable of more procedures and higher precision than the machine before.

The use of robots to aid surgeons in performing surgeries has changed the surgical field. Robotic systems entirely changed the traditional style of surgical operations. Robotic surgery is holding significant promise in the medical field because robotic surgery is a new revolution in surgery and is one of the most talked about subjects in surgery. The extent of robotic surgery is still evolving today.

This is because with minimally invasive surgery, the cuts are smaller and in order to be sure the surgical procedure is going as planned, there needs to be an electric display of the heart that the surgeon can look at and know how the surgery is progressing. Minimally invasive surgery is a safer surgical procedure, when compared to open surgery; less blood is lost and fewer complications arise when performing the former.

Arguments for and against it have appeared in all types of media, and more importantly in the minds of Americans. This Literature Review will discuss many of these beliefs in order to achieve a well-rounded, objective analysis of the issue. But before any opinions are put forth, it is always important to talk about the relative facts. Why put forth a new vision?
