Impact of da Vinci Xi robot in pulmonary resection.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study sought to evaluate the impact of a da Vinci Xi surgical robot on perioperative outcomes after pulmonary resections.

Methods

A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected STS data was performed at a single institution for patients who underwent elective lung resections from 2012 to 2019. Patient outcomes were compared at three different time periods: before the adoption of the robot technology (predominately VATS), during the initial robot experience (the first 18 months), and after the mature robot experience (the second 18 months). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression modeling was performed to determine the factors associated with perioperative complications.

Results

Five hundred and four patients underwent pulmonary resection b
