Comparison of Robotic vs. Standard Surgical Procedure on Postoperative Nursing Care of Women Undergoing Total Abdominal Hysterectomy

Janie Best et al. Medsurg Nurs. 2014 Nov-Dec.

Abstract

This exploratory study was conducted to determine if the postoperative course is different for women undergoing robotic-assisted total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH) compared to women undergoing traditional (open) TAH. This study adds to the evidence regarding potential benefits and complications of robotic-assisted gynecologic surgery, and identifies specific areas for further research.
