| Summary: | 碩士 === 中華大學 === 工業管理學系碩士班 === 103 === Surgical operations may be performed using the traditional approach or the moreadvanced technology: the roboticsapproach. The robotics used in surgical operations includesa 3D console for thesurgeon, a robotic arm simulating human wrist/hand, and a surgicalplatform. In this research, comparison between the motions of surgeons in surgical operationusing both the traditional and robotics approaches. Ten surgical operations, fivefortraditional and fivefor robotics operations, were observed in a medical center in Taiwan. Themotions, operation times were recorded and compared. It was found that sewing, cutting, andtissue removing were the three most time consuming tasks. Surgeons were always watching amonitor and operating two joysticks when performing the tasksvia a robotic arm. The surgeons were, on theother hand, standing with arms below the shoulder most of the timeunder a traditional way. The surgeons needed toraise the arms only whenthey need to change the accessories. The surgeons operating atraditional operation were prone to have lower limb discomfortproblems. The surgeons usinga robotic arm system, were, on the other hand, were more likely to have neck pain problems.
