First seen Mar 22, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study watches surgeons as they operate to see how much physical strain they experience. Ten experienced surgeons will wear motion-capture suits and muscle sensors during bowel or prostate surgery using different methods (standard keyhole or robotic systems). The goal is to find which technique is less tiring for surgeons, so future tools and training can be improved.
