Effects of visual force feedback on robot-assisted surgical task performance

Abstract: Visual force feedback resulted in reduced suture breakage, lower forces, and decreased force inconsistencies among novice robotic surgeons, although elapsed time and knot quality were unaffected. In contrast, visual force feedback did not affect these metrics among surgeons experienced with the da Vinci system. These results suggest that visual force feedback primarily benefits novice robot-assisted surgeons, with diminishing benefits among experienced surgeons.

“…This was not surprising and corroborated previous results on the effects of a visual biofeedback to improve force control (Vaillancourt and Russell, 2002;Gerovich et al, 2004;Wagner et al, 2007;Reiley et al, 2008). The present result extended this improvement to the use of an auditory biofeedback.…”

“…Exactly like musicians who use their fingers for producing the desired sound and, in case of string instruments, feel the vibrations of the strings, it is of utmost importance for a surgeon to be able to feel the consistency and anatomical structures and evaluate the tensility of the suture during knot-tying. Haptic sensation during surgery should be part of any telesurgical system, even if its relevance in telesurgical procedures is controversial, and it has been claimed that the results of visual force feedback and haptic feedback are comparable (17). In a recent study, differences between strand-to-strand knots and loop-to-strand knots were detected when telesurgical and manual knot-tying were compared (18).…”

“…Limitations can include an incomplete and delayed motion tracking, although this limitation might negatively affect the quality of an anastomosis in beating-heart surgery, such as coronary artery bypass grafting [44] , and it does not seem relevant for intra-cardiac tumor resection. Lack of tactile feedback has demonstrated to be also a limitation: the visual force feedback primarily benefits inexperienced robot-assisted surgeons, with diminishing benefits among experienced surgeons [45] .…”
