Robotics in Healthcare: The Future of Medical Care

In our study of the medical robots market is segmented into three major segments such as product, application, and end user. The product segment is divided into surgical robots, rehabilitation robots, non-invasive radiosurgery robots, hospital & pharmacy robots and others. The application segment consists of laparoscopy, neurology, orthopedics, gynecology, urology, cardiology and others. Similarly, the end user is classified as hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers.

The robots are designed to assist surgeons during the surgical procedures. However, the medical robots are majorly used for surgical producers, there are different types of medical robots.

The types of the medical robots include surgical robots, rehabilitation robots, hospital & pharmacy robots and more. The targeted stakeholders for the medical robots market reports include suppliers and distributors of medical robot systems medical robots and related device manufacturing companies, hospitals and diagnostic centers, ambulatory surgery centers and others.

Types

Surgical robots: These robots either allow surgical operations to be carried out with better precision than an unaided human surgeon or allow remote surgery where a human surgeon is not physically present with the patient.

Rehabilitation robots: facilitate and support the lives of infirm, elderly people, or those with dysfunction of body parts affecting movement. These robots are also used for rehabilitation and related procedures, such as training and therapy.

Biorobots: a group of robots designed to imitate the cognition of humans and animals.
Telepresence robots: allow off-site medical professionals to move, look around, communicate, and participate from remote locations.

Pharmacy automation: robotic systems to dispense oral solids in a retail pharmacy setting or preparing sterile IV admixtures in a hospital pharmacy setting.

Companion robot: has the capability to engage emotionally with users keeping them company and alerting if there is a problem with their health.

Disinfection robot: has the capability to disinfect a whole room in mere minutes, generally using pulsed ultraviolet light. They are being used to fight Ebola virus disease.
