Oxygen Delivering System III: Tracheostomy and T-piece01:23

Oxygen Delivering System III: Tracheostomy and T-piece

Oxygen delivery is critical in clinical care, especially for patients with respiratory disorders or those undergoing surgical procedures. Various systems, such as tracheostomy and the T-piece, deliver oxygen to the lungs, ensuring adequate arterial oxygenation.
Tracheostomy
A tracheostomy is a surgically created opening (stoma) in the anterior part of the trachea. It is used to establish a patient airway, bypass an upper airway obstruction, simplify the removal of secretions, permit long-term...

Area of Science:

  • Robotics in Surgery
  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Telemedicine

Background:

  • Remote surgical procedures are emerging.
  • Advancements in 5G technology enable high-speed, low-latency communication.
  • Robotic surgery offers precision and minimally invasive options.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the feasibility and safety of real-time transcontinental uniportal robotic thoracic surgery.
  • To assess the performance of a 5G-enabled serpentine robotic system for remote surgery.
  • To determine if low network latency (<150 ms) is achievable for such procedures.

Main Methods:

  • A 69-year-old female patient underwent a right upper lobectomy.
  • The surgery was performed remotely by a team over 8000 km away.
  • A single-port robotic platform utilizing a dedicated 5G network was employed.

Main Results:

  • The transcontinental uniportal robotic thoracic surgery was completed in 58 minutes.
  • Network latency remained consistently below 150 milliseconds throughout the procedure.
  • No intraoperative complications were observed, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 3 without adverse events.

Conclusions:

  • Transcontinental single-port robotic thoracic surgery is technically feasible and safe under specific latency constraints (<150 ms).
  • This technology holds significant potential for expanding global surgical access.
  • 5G-enabled robotic systems can facilitate complex remote surgical interventions.
