ABSTRACT
Robotic surgery make use of Robots to perform surgery. Major potential advantages of robotic surgery are precision and miniaturization. With our skilled surgeons and the robotic system, we can now use minimally invasive techniques in even the most complicated procedures like Cardiac surgery, Gastrointestinal surgery, Gynecology, Neurosurgery, Orthopedics, Pediatrics, Urology etc.
The software is "command central" for the device's operation, da Vinci, Aesop, Hermes etc. are different kinds of the Robotic systems. The combination of increased view and tireless dexterity is helping us to overcome some of the limitations of other types of less invasive surgery.
INTRODUCTION
Robotic surgery is the use of robots in performing surgery. Major potential advantages of robotic surgery are precision and miniaturization. Further advantages are articulation beyond normal manipulation and three-dimensional magnification. At present, surgical robots are not autonomous, but are always under the control of a surgeon. They are used as tools to extend the surgical skills of a trained surgeon.
Robotic surgery is different from minimally invasive surgery. Minimally invasive surgery (sometimes called laparoscopic surgery) is a general term for procedures that reduce trauma by performing operations through small ports rather than large incisions. Minimally invasive surgery is now commonplace for certain procedures. But until now, we haven't been able to use minimally invasive techniques for more complex operations. With our skilled surgeons and the robotic system, we can now use minimally invasive techniques in even the most complicated procedures like Cardiac surgery, Gastrointestinal surgery, Gynecology, Neurosurgery, Orthopedics, Pediatrics, Urology etc.
. DIFFERENT TYPES OF ROBOTIC SYSTEMS
Computer Motion of Santa Barbara California has become the leading producer of medical robotics. Different types of robots are da Vinci, Aesop, Hermes, and Zeus.
The da Vinci Surgical System was the first operative surgical robot. Products like Aesop, Hermes, and Zeus are the next generation of surgical equipment and are used together to create a highly networked and efficient operating room.
WORKING OF ROBOTIC SYSTEM
Today's robotics devices typically have a computer software component that controls the movement of mechanical parts of the device as it acts on something in its environment The software is "command central" for the device's operation.
Surgeon sits in the console of the surgical system several feet from the patient. He looks through the vision system - like a pair of binoculars - and gets a huge, 3-D view of inside the patient's body and area of the operation.
ADVANTAGES
Robotic surgery offers many benefits over traditional surgery. The Robotic Surgical System is great for patients and for surgeons. Robotic surgery gives us even greater vision, dexterity and precision than possible with standard minimally invasive surgery, so we can now use minimally invasive techniques for a wider range of procedures. The patient side benefits include,
• Reduced pain and trauma
• Fewer complications
• Less blood loss and need for transfusions
• Less post-operative pain and discomfort
• Less risk of infection
• Shorter hospital stay
• Faster recovery and return to work
• Less scarring and improved appearance
6. LIMITATIONS
• Current equipment is expensive to obtain, maintain, and operate.
• Surgeons and staff need special training.
• Data collection of procedures and their outcomes remains limited.
7. CONCLUSION
Robotic surgery is an emerging technology in the medical field. It gives us even greater vision, dexterity and precision than possible with standard minimally invasive surgery, so we can now use minimally invasive techniques for a wider range of procedures. But it's main drawback is high cost. Besides the cost, Robotic System still has many obstacles that it must overcome before it can be fully integrated into the existing healthcare system. More improvements in size, tactile sensation, cost, and are expected for the future
