Endoscopic Procedures IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy

134
Sigmoidoscopy and laparoscopy are distinct medical procedures that enable physicians to internally inspect different parts of the GI tract. Although they serve different purposes, each is essential for diagnosing and, in some cases, treating various medical conditions.
Sigmoidoscopy
Sigmoidoscopy is a diagnostic procedure that uses a flexible sigmoidoscope equipped with a light source and camera to examine the rectum and sigmoid colon. The procedure involves inserting the tube through the anus...

Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP

503
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.

Area of Science:

  • Robotics in Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Workflow Optimization

Background:

  • Operating room staff shortages and underutilization of capacity necessitate innovative solutions.
  • Current robotic scrub nurse systems primarily support open surgery, overlooking laparoscopic procedures.
  • Laparoscopic surgery's potential for standardization makes it suitable for robotic integration, but safe instrument handling is critical.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and evaluate a robotic platform capable of manipulating laparoscopic and da Vinci instruments.
  • To ensure the safe and robust handling of surgical instruments within a robotic system.
  • To lay the groundwork for context-aware robotic assistance in minimally invasive procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a robotic platform featuring a universal gripper system for efficient instrument handling.
  • Implementation of a comprehensive test protocol to assess gripper robustness.
  • Conducting force absorption tests to define operational safety limits and grip tests for system performance evaluation.

Main Results:

  • The end effector demonstrated significant force and torque absorption, crucial for safe instrument handover to surgeons.
  • Laparoscopic instruments were reliably picked up, manipulated, and returned, even with positional deviations.
  • The universal gripper successfully manipulated da Vinci instruments, enabling potential robot-robot interactions.

Conclusions:

  • The developed robotic scrub nurse system with its universal gripper can safely and robustly handle both laparoscopic and da Vinci instruments.
  • The system shows promise for improving operating room efficiency and addressing staffing challenges.
  • Future development will focus on integrating context-aware functionalities into the robotic system.
