Abstract

Abstract:

The da Vinci′s robotic surgery system, which is a type of platform for surgery robots, can proceed complex surgeries via the minimally invasive method. It has the characteristics of excellent ergonomics, high operational stability and flexibility leading to the increased application in surgeries recently. This system does release doctors from operating table to the surgeon′s console, resulting in the workload alteration of doctors, however, it is still controversial about this alteration and there is little study on it in China. In this review, we summarized the workload during the surgeries of robotic system and aimed to identify the altered workload, moreover, to improve the robotic surgery system and make it more appropriate to China′s medical characteristics.

Key words: Da Vinci, Laparoscopy, Ergonomics, Workload
