The purpose of this research is to study patient outcomes based on the use of Force Feedback instruments during robotic-assisted lung resection. Force Feedback technology describes the physical forces a surgeon senses when pushing and pulling structures inside the body during robotic-assisted surgery.
The objective of the proposed study is to evaluate whether reduced force applied at the tips of Force Feedback instruments is associated with improvements in outcomes following robotic-assisted anatomic lung resections. The investigators propose a prospective cohort study of patients undergoing anatomic lung resection at a single high volume thoracic surgery institution to analyze outcomes based on the use of Force Feedback instruments. Investigators will use a composite endpoint of textbook recovery to capture patients who have an uncomplicated postsurgical trajectory with absence of complica…
