Summary | Scrub nurse is one of the significant clinical staff supporting surgical
procedure in an operating theater. Smooth instrument exchange with predicting next procedures assists surgeon‘‘s operating rhythm efficiency without any distraction, though these performances are generally limited to skilled scrub nurses who were well trained and experienced many surgical cases. However, a chronic shortage of scrub nurses has been severe. To compensate for this shortage, scrub nurse robot (SNR) which aiming to achieve an efficacy at the level of a skilled human scrub nurse during surgery has been proposed [1], and developed by several research teams [2]. Although those have been started developing since 2005, to the best of our knowledge from literature, there is only one robot which has been installed into clinical cases [2]. Because most of all other robots were based on basic research and were focusing to develop novel functions by engineering techniques, there have been few reports describing motivations to install into clinical cases. The aim of our study is fabrication and experiencing clinical cases of such practically yet robotic scrub nurse assistant (RSN) enabled by newly proposed rule as a robotic assistance for a human scrub nurse. |
