Abstract

Telesurgery has the potential to overcome geographical barriers in surgical care, encouraging its deployment in areas with sparse surgical expertise. Despite successful in-human experiments and substantial technological progress, the adoption of telesurgery remains slow. In this Review, we analyze the reasons for this slow adoption. First, we identify various contexts for telesurgery and highlight the vastly different requirements for their realization. We then discuss why procedures with high urgency and skill sparsity are particularly suitable for telesurgery. Last, we summarize key research areas essential for further progress. The goal of this Review is to provide the reader with a comprehensive analysis of the current state of telesurgery research and to provide guidance for faster adoption of this exciting technology.

远程外科和语境的重要性

远程外科手术有潜力克服外科护理的地理障碍，鼓励其在缺乏外科专业知识的地区部署。尽管成功的人体实验和实质性的技术进步，采用远程手术仍然缓慢。在这篇评论中，我们分析了这种缓慢采用的原因。首先，我们确定了远程外科手术的各种背景，并强调了其实现的巨大不同的要求。然后我们讨论为什么高度紧急和技能稀疏的手术特别适合远程手术。最后，总结了今后研究的重点领域。这篇综述的目的是为读者提供远程外科研究现状的全面分析，并为更快地采用这一令人兴奋的技术提供指导。
