ObjectiveTo analyse ambulatory movements and team dynamics during robot‐assisted surgery (RAS), and to investigate whether congestion of the physical space associated with robotic technology led to workflow challenges or predisposed to errors and adverse events.
MethodsWith institutional review board approval, we retrospectively reviewed 10 recorded robot‐assisted radical prostatectomies in a single...
To design a data collection methodology to capture team activities during robot-assisted surgery (RAS) (team communications, surgical flow, and procedural interruptions), and use relevant disciplines of Industrial Engineering and Human Factors Engineering to uncover key issues impeding surgical flow and guide evidence-based strategic changes to enhance surgical performance and improve outcomes.Field...
An aging and more sedentary population requires interventions aimed at monitoring physical activity, particularly within the home. This research uses simulation, optimization, and regression analyses to assess the feasibility of using a small number of sensors to track movement and infer physical activity levels of older adults. Based on activity data from the American Time Use Survey and assisted...
Summary form only given. The management of team work and task work in modern high-paced, collaborative environments is challenging due to unyielding time constraints, constant switching of cognitive tasks, and collating incoming and outgoing information requests to and from collaborators who vary in their expertise. To ensure the effectiveness of collaboration in these environments, agencies frequently...
