Abstract
- BACKGROUND: Spinal surgical robots are in the early phases of development and adoption. These systems need to be easier to use, less costly, and more workflow-efficient. METHODS: A portable, operating room table-mounted spine robot and camera system are described. Accuracy and workflow efficiency were assessed in comparison to another commonly utilized spinal robotic system. RESULTS: For the surgical task of inserting 4 pedicle screws into 2 adjacent lumbar vertebrae, equivalent accuracy was seen with both systems. The new robotic system was more efficient in terms of total procedure time, system setup time, and screw planning to in-position time (p
