A Study to Understand the Utility of the Force Feedback Instruments in Robotic Procedures Using da Vinci 5 Robot

Exploring how da Vinci 5 robot tools help in surgeries.

Recruiting
22 years and older
All
Phase N/A

This study looks at the use of **force feedback instruments** in surgeries using the **da Vinci 5 robot**. Force feedback instruments help doctors feel the force they apply during surgery, which can make procedures safer and more precise. The study is for adults aged 22 or older who are having robotic surgery with the da Vinci 5 robot. Participants must agree to follow the study rules and sign a consent form.

**Key Points:**

  • Participants will not receive any direct treatment from the study, as it is observational.
  • The study requires participants to be available for follow-up checks as per the study protocol.
  • Individuals with certain medical conditions or who are pregnant cannot take part in the study.

People who should not participate include those having emergency surgery, those with specific health conditions, or those who have had recent cancer treatments. The study will not include individuals in vulnerable groups or those who cannot safely undergo surgery. This study helps researchers understand how force feedback can improve robotic surgeries.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
