Overview

The goal of this observational study is to understand the utility of force feedback instruments in surgeries that are done using the da Vinci 5 robot.

Eligibility

Pre-Operative Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Age 22 years or older
  2. ASA ≤ 3
  3. The clinical decision has been made to perform multi-port robotic assisted surgery with da Vinci 5 with Force Feedback instruments for the study specified procedure as primary procedure prior to enrollment in the study
  4. Subject or a legally authorized representative is able to provide written informed consent using the study informed consent form prior to the study
  5. Subject is willing and able to comply with the study protocol requirements including follow up schedule

Pre-operative Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subject receiving an emergent procedure
  • Subject planned to undergo major concomitant surgery for the treatment of a different medical condition than was originally planned
  • Subject with previous ipsilateral surgery (open, endoscopic or robotic) with the same surgical indication
  • Subject with past or ongoing medical conditions (for example: inflammatory bowel disease) which, in the judgment of the Investigator, puts them at high risk for surgery and not appropriate for the study
  • Subject is pregnant or suspected to be pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Subject has any other condition or personal circumstance that, in the judgment of the Investigator, might interfere with the collection of complete quality data
  • Subject is currently participating in or has participated in a study of an investigational agent or a significant risk investigational device study within the past 6 months
  • Subject belongs to a vulnerable population.
  • Subject is contraindicated for anesthesia or surgery.
  • Subject has had previous neoadjuvant therapy, previous chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and/or radiation therapy for the treatment of the cancer to be resected within the past 6 months

Intra-operative Exclusion Criteria

  • Subject with hemodynamic or respiratory instability, which precludes the Investigator from performing the RAS.
  • Subject in whom inadequate visualization makes a minimally invasive approach not feasible, as determined from the investigator assessment prior to docking the robot.
  • Subject with adhesions, scarring and disease status in the body which in the opinion of the investigator limits the ability to perform the minimally invasive procedure.

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.
