Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, 2013 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Retained gauze after a surgery is an uncommon complication and may be associated with many complications. We report our case as attention may be paid to the fact that the retained gauze may get symptomatic even after a very long

The Bulletin of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2019 National guidance is in place to minimise the number of cases of surgical instruments and sponges retained in a patient post-surgery. But is the existing strategy for prevention sufficient? Is this supposed 'never event' always avoidable? George Winter investigates.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This work presents a state‐adaptive Koopman linear quadratic regulator framework for real‐time manipulation of a deformable swab tool in robotic environmental sampling. By combining Koopman linearization, tactile sensing, and centroid‐based force regulation, the system maintains stable contact forces and high coverage across flat and inclined surfaces.

Root‐Stimulated Movements in Mimosa Pudica for Biohybrid Robotic Systems
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study demonstrates that thermal and electrical stimulation of Mimosa pudica root induces movement of the petiole and pinnules without direct stimulation of the aerial organs, thereby enabling a plant‐based robotic gripper and providing a foundation for the development of intelligent and sustainable systems.

Bar-coding surgical sponges to improve safety: a randomized controlled trial.
, 2008 OBJECTIVE: A randomized, controlled trial was performed to evaluate a computer-assisted method for counting sponges using a bar-code system. BACKGROUND: Retained sponges are a rare and preventable problem but persist in surgery despite standardized ...
