Would You Be Happy to be Operated On by Surgical Robot Controlled by AI?

ITV News Science Correspondent Martin Stew reports on the next generation of surgical robots poised to disrupt healthcare systems worldwide.

Or, how would you feel being stitched up by a robot, which is remotely operated by a surgeon on a different continent?

These are just some of the questions that a new robotic surgery framework, led by scientists from University College London, is aiming to solve.

With the next generation of surgical robots poised to disrupt healthcare systems worldwide, just how ready are the ethics surrounding robots and medical artificial intelligence?

Since the first surgical robot was introduced in 1985, many more companies are producing surgical robots.

Today, 81 researchers from 12 different countries have released the results of joining forces to agree on a safe criteria for increasingly autonomous robots, as their use in medical settings increases worldwide.

Whilst robots were only used in one out of every 400 NHS surgical procedures last year, the use of robotics is rising fast. In the past four years it's nearly doubled, from 24,647 to 47,966 procedures.

Hani Marcus, from University College London and a lead author for the framework, explained that it will provide a safety net, particularly with the emergence of AI and autonomous robots.

"All of a sudden, there's not just one robot but many robots in widespread use, so it's a good time to have a framework to evaluate them," he said.

The framework considers the economic value and sustainability, as well as major impacts on healthcare systems.

It also looks at the integrations of AI into robotic systems and the unique ethical considerations involved in using a robot during surgery, stating that a standard process for determining responsibility for errors when AI is used should be adopted.
