Safety and feasibility of solo surgery using a novel robotic platform: an IDEAL 2a development study
This IDEAL 2a investigation showed the Maestro platform was safe and feasible for performing solo surgery, with acceptable safety and technical outcomes in routine and complex procedures. There is potential to improve operating room workflow and surgeon autonomy, with controlled studies to follow.
