Vision‐Based Handover and Organization of Robotic Scrub Nurse for Seamless Surgical Flow

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a pose estimation‐based robotic scrub nurse (PERSN) that assists surgical procedures by estimating the surgeon's hand position, orientation, and grasping state, along with the constraint‐based 6D pose of surgical instruments. User evaluations show that PERSN provides greater immediate usability and reduces physical demand compared ...

Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair With Autologous Biologic Augmentation Using Biceps Tendon Redirection and Incorporation

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The long head of the biceps tendon is a valuable autologous tissue for biologic augmentation in rotator cuff repair. Redirecting the long head of the biceps tendon can enhance its role as a humeral head depressor, limiting superior humeral head migration, and improving rotator cuff force couple and shoulder biomechanics. Incorporating the long
