Robots in the OR: could they save surgeons from Career-Ending pain?

NCT ID NCT06978309

Summary

This study aims to understand if robotic-assisted surgery causes less muscle strain and fatigue for surgeons compared to standard laparoscopic surgery. Researchers measured muscle activity in surgeons' arms and necks during real operations using sensors. The goal is to see if newer robotic technology could reduce the risk of long-term work-related injuries for surgeons.
