    The healthcare industry is growing and technology is the way it is leading. Just recently the new electronic media has been introduced for the clinics, pharmacies, hospitals and doctor offices to use. What is next well what is next is all the newer technology that will start hitting surgical rooms such as the robotic. Robotic surgery is going to be less invasive for the patient which also means faster recovery time (da Vinci Surgery, 2012). Robotic surgery has been adopted rather quickly since 2007 over 205,000 surgeries have been done. Around the world da Vinci Robotic systems are being installed in hospitals (Barbash, M.D & Giled, Ph. D., 2010). There are quite a few surgeries that are eligible for this new technology of robotic such as prostate cancer, nerve sparing, cystectomy, and urinary, partial nephrectomy for kidney cancer, adrenalectomy for adrenal cancer and for lymph node dissection which is for testicular cancer (Stanford Hospital and Clinics, 2012).…

    Robot-Assisted Hysterectomy

    The United States is the land of opportunity and competition, so in order for robotics in healthcare to succeed it must make sense financially. Robot-assisted surgery is sometimes considered to be the most expensive form of surgery due to the cost of the robotic system, but that is not true when the indirect costs of robot-assisted surgery are also considered. Landeen et al. studied the cost effectiveness of the four methods of hysterectomy, and they concluded robot-assisted hysterectomy was the least expensive approach when the cost of the robotic system was excluded and disposable equipment was kept below $1,496 per case (197, 208). In addition, the indirect financial effect of lower morbidity, shorter hospital stay, and fewer post-operation…

    The Pros And Cons Of Human Replacement Robots

    Asides from causing human social dysfunction, the robots are neither safer nor more reliable compared to human resources, which is totally opposite to most people’s common sense. One extreme case is that a women bought a robot to substitute for her boyfriend because she believes the machine is safer and will never betray her (Turkle, 2012). The main reason why she abandoned human boyfriend is the eager for “no-risk relationship” (Turkle, 2012). However, does this machine which always obeys her order and never has different thoughts really give her boyfriend-like care? The technology of human replacement robots is not advanced enough and still limited by huge barriers. For example, a kind of robot works as an alternative role to those disabled students who have problems attend classroom, can’t guarantee receiving perfect wireless signal when moving in the campus (Brown, 2013).…

    Incorporating Robotic Surgery: A Rhetorical Analysis

    In his political cartoon “Frugal and Regression” Ed Fisher depicts a robot taking a job slip before a man who says “So it’s finally happened?.” This political cartoon depicts one of the greatest ethical dilemmas. When incorporating robots into surgical procedures, a vast amount of surgeons will lose or be forced to alter their jobs. Although that may be true, incorporating robots into surgical procedures will call for innovation. Innovation calls for new research, strategies, and production. Robotic surgery is a revolution in the operating room, and like all revolutions, it will not end the careers of surgeons, but rather expand them. The US National Library…
