The #robot does not replace #surgeons but enhances their ability to carry out complex operations via very tiny incisions, with greater #accuracy and #precision. Nine in 10 of all keyhole surgeries, such as the removal of certain organs affected by #cancer, will be delivered with robot assistance within the next 10 years https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c7v8176z7dlo

Also this is FAR cheaper than spending $1000s on skills-training simulators for endoscopic surgery. As a department, I mean.

The trick is managing skill progression. So after a month, the clear glass plate has to go, then after another month we have to start adhering the snacks to the machine, etc, etc...

Obviously the advanced vending machine will be very difficult to steal from, and the surgeons will have to put it through a CT scanner first to understand the internal layout, before attempting surgery upon it.

#Surgeons - how can you tell if the IONM clinician is helping you intervene in a timely manner?

A short list to consider:

#1

They took the time to optimize their signals beforehand. Asking them what they did to do so should have more steps than clicking the "on" button. This allows them to give you alerts with more confidence.

#2

When a change happens, they have already eliminated many of the possible technical problems. Some of this comes with good technique and program adapting, but a lot
