Real Benefit
Ergonomic Outcomes
Surgeon wore EMG electrodes during 13 laparoscopic and 5 robotic
procedures
• Mean maximum voluntary contraction measured in bilateral deltoid, biceps, triceps and the trapezius• B/L deltoid, biceps, triceps significantly elevated activation in laparoscopic
procedures
Unsure of clinical significance to surgeon

Conclusions
• Robotics have significant surgeon benefits
• There are no proven significant PATIENT benefits
– ? decreased conversion rate in obese males
• Hospital benefits – Innovation and Marketing
• WE NEED COMPETITION IN THIS INDUSTRY TO OFFSET COST!!
• The right operation is the technique that the operating surgeon feels most comfortable with
