NCT ID NCT05613816

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study compared robot-assisted laparoscopy using the Senhance Surgical System to conventional laparoscopy for hysterectomy and other uterine surgeries. Researchers measured operating time, blood loss, and safety in 78 patients. The goal was to see if the robot offers advantages over standard minimally invasive surgery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Senhance Surgical System (robot-assisted surgical device)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that robot-assisted surgery is as safe and efficient as conventional laparoscopy, potentially offering surgeons more precision.

What could go wrong

This is a small, completed observational study, not a randomized trial, so results may not apply broadly. The robot may not improve outcomes or could increase costs.
