“…Another distinctive feature of the role of the BA is the sort of challenges presented. First, the skills-set required of the BA include laparoscopic and visual spatial skills, besides intuition and adaptability, meticulous attention to detail and considerable study (Garbens et al 2021, Mangano et al 2020) in a ‘hybrid understanding of technology and standard operating room procedures’ (Wrightson 2019: p511). BAs are also said to be at an increased risk of neuromuscular or traumatic injury (Borin & McDaniel 2013).…”

Introduction: Robot-assisted surgery has grown exponentially since its inception and first approval in the United States in the year 2000. The surgeon operating with the assistance of the robot sits remotely to the patient and another practitioner assists at the bedside. The role of the bedside assistant and the training that is required to undertake this role are understudied topics. Aim: To explore the functions, training and professional development of the bedside assistant in robot-assisted surgery and propose the necessary foundations for the safe enactment of the role in the United Kingdom. Methods: Through critical interpretative synthesis, relevant literature was systematically searched and analysed to inform integration of evidence. Results: Seventy-three studies were retrieved from the literature, across several health care disciplines and surgical specialities. These were critically analysed to inform a theoretically sound account grounded on evidence. Conclusion: The role, functions and skills of the bedside assistant in robot-assisted surgery vary across contexts. These were analysed and critically synthetised to produce several keys to the success of bedside assistants in robot-assisted surgery in the context of the United Kingdom and of its national regulations.
