Abstract:
The Hugo RAS and Versius are new robotic systems with a multimodular configuration, requiring a dedicated positioning of units, arms and trocars. While promising flexibility and multiquadrant opportunities-with an enhanced range of motion-the presence of multiple units around the patient should be effectively managed by the assistant and requires a new background of tasks. The article represents a practical guide while providing an overview on assistants' perspectives.
