From the hands of the robot to the courtroom.

The number of claims analysed shows a growing trend, although robotic surgery represents a small proportion of the total number of procedures performed. This finding should encourage healthcare facilities to adopt appropriate tools for assessing and monitoring risks associated with robot-assisted procedures. These tools will help strengthen the skills and training of healthcare workers, as well as improve doctor-patient communication, thus promoting a reduction in claims and an overall improvement in the healthcare experience.
