Modern advances in medicine and technology have led to an increase in robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) cases. However, concerns have been raised about the potential environmental impact of RAS. Despite this, only limited quantitative evidence…
INTRODUCTION: Despite recent evidence on the surgical outcomes of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS), other patient centre outcomes, including quality of life (QOL), are lacking. This study aims to examine changes in QoL trajectories following …
This study aims to compare surgical outcomes and in-hospital cost between robotic-assisted surgery (RAS), laparoscopic and open approaches for benign gynaecology, colorectal and urological patients and to explore the association between cos…
BACKGROUND: A barrier to the uptake of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) continues to be the perceived high costs. A lack of detailed costing information has made it difficult for public hospitals in particular to determine whether use of the …
