Telerobotics is a wide term and include multiple directions and aspects in its development. When speaking of different aspects of its development, one should think of its functionality, construction aspects, communication aspects, implementation safety and acceptance by the environment. Robotics is a science dealing with possibilities of implementing different tasks, through mechanical instruments, controlled by humans. Telesurgery does not include only aspects of teleconference but assists in surgical procedures, i.e. enables for the part of surgical procedure to be performed through electronic commands on bigger distances. Currently, two robotic systems are employed in clinical practice. One is ZEUS system, constructed by the Computer Motion and manufactured by AESOP. Second one is Da Vinci surgical system. For laparoscopic robotic telesurgery, identical set of apparatus and instruments as the one used in a routine laparoscopic surgical procedures is needed. In all reports, authors refer to safe and successful surgical method. Recovery of the patient is identical as in classic laparoscopy. No statistically significant difference has been found in the duration of the surgery between robotic and classic laparoscopy. When counting used instruments, it was found that less instruments were used in the robotic laparoscopy. From presented studies related to the robotic laparoscopy, it can be seen that there is an intention to present this method as safe and usable. One thing is sure--this method is the first step toward new model of planning and performing surgical procedures with only one goal--to help the patient. |
