The purpose of this study was to assess how surgical intensive care unit (SICU) patients and their families would perceive robotic telepresence. We hypothesized that they would view such technology positively.
This research was an Institutional Review Board-approved prospective observational study. Our robotic telepresence program augmented the SICU multidisciplinary team rounding process. We anonymously surveyed patients and their families on their perceptions. Those who interacted at least once with the robot served as our participant base.
Twenty-four patients and 26 family members completed the survey. Ninety-two percent of respondents were comfortable with the robot, and 84% believed communication was "easy." Ninety percent did not perceive the robot as "annoying" and 92% did not believe that "the doctor cared less about them" because of the robot. Ninety-two percent of respondents supported the continued use of the robot.
Robotic telepresence was viewed positively by patients and their families in the SICU. Furthermore, they believed the robot was beneficial to their care and indicated their support for its continued use.
本研究旨在评估外科重症监护病房（SICU）患者及其家属对机器人远程呈现的看法。我们假设他们会对此类技术持积极态度。
本研究是一项经机构审查委员会批准的前瞻性观察研究。我们的机器人远程呈现方案增强了 SICU 多学科团队查房流程。我们对患者及其家属的看法进行了匿名调查。那些至少与机器人互动过一次的人作为我们的参与者基础。
24 名患者和 26 名家属完成了调查。92%的受访者对机器人感到舒适，84%的人认为沟通“简单”。90%的人不认为机器人“烦人”，92%的人不认为“因为机器人，医生对他们的关心减少了”。92%的受访者支持继续使用机器人。
机器人远程呈现受到 SICU 患者及其家属的积极评价。此外，他们认为机器人对他们的护理有益，并表示支持继续使用。
