Robotics in surgery power point presentation

Robotic Surgery:

—More accurate in dealing with surgical parameters
—E.g: laproscopic surgery (laproscopic cholecystectomy – standard treatment for cholelithiasis)
—But laproscopic techniques (such as suturing or ligation) make it difficult for surgeons to perform other kinds of operations.

—Necessary- to adopt various advanced computer-enhanced technologies (surgical robots, 3-D images, computer graphics, etc)
—

Need for more complex procedures:

Surgical robots + Computer-aided designing(CAD) + Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) + Navigation systems (CT, MRI, etc)

Navigation Systems

—Allow precise intraoperative orientation of surgical instruments

—3-D images give advanced vision
—Surgical robots, such as AESOP, da Vinci and Zeus provide surgeons with technologically advanced vision and hand techniques

—Leading to the development of new surgical fields such as Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS), Non-invasive surgery, telesurgery, fetal surgery, neuroinformatic surgery, etc)

Da vinci

—It is used in cardio, urology and pediatric surgery.
—The computer system which controls the whole network resides inside the sugeon’s console
—Master slave control system enables us to do more precise surgery than endoscopic surgery.
—Remote access endoscopic tele-manuplation enables us to record complex 3d manuplataions.

Notable features of Da Vinci are

1. Endo-wrist movement like humans.
2. optimal 3d endoscope provides scaling, tremor filtering, coaxial alignment of hand eyes and tool-tip.

Regarding treatment they are useful to treat
1. oesophagus cancer
2. colon cancer
3. Gastric cancer.

Zeus

—Zeus is developed from AESOP

—AESOP is a voice controlled robot, one hand holds the camera and other two holds the surgical instruments.

—Zeus is same as Da vinci, except for internal articulated endoscopic wrist.

It helps surgeons to perform long distant surgery using SOCRATES(computer motion).

—SOCRATES

—SOCRATES is a surgical tele collaboration system that links remote surgeons directly with colleagues in the operating room.
—HERMES is the leading edge operating room’s central nervous system. HERMES enables the surgeon and staff to control a wide variety of networks consisting of AESOP, ZEUS and SOCRATES.
The main features of Zeus is the video monitor projects a 3D image that can be viewed through glasses mounted with a polarizing filter .

—Cardiology

—The Da Vinci was specifically designed to perform closed-chest coronary artery by-passes grafting.
—Mitral valve replacement is carried out in many patients.
—ZEUS successfully performed closed-chest, off-pump coronary Artery bypasses grafting.
—To treat tumours with robots in heart is risky because of its complexity.
