The First Experience of the Upper Extremities Passive Exoskeletons using to Facilitate the Endosurgeons' Work.

The introduction of endosurgery into medical practice has significantly reduced the severity of surgery for patients, and increased it significantly for endosurgeons. Until now, passive exoskeletons of the upper extremities have not been used to facilitate the work of medical workers. The publication summarizes the first experience of using the endosurgeon's exoskeleton - REXS. It was found that for the optimal work of endosurgeons, unloading of the arms and back is required, which can be done by using the developed original exoskeleton of the upper extremities. The first experience of using the passive exoskeleton of the endosurgeon REX-S is completely positive and indicates the prospects of its wider application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
