What this trial studies

This study investigates robotic-assisted reduction and fixation in orthopaedic trauma surgeries. It compares robotic assistance with conventional approaches to see if it improves fracture reduction, surgical outcomes, and reduces complications. The trial focuses on minimally invasive techniques using the R-Universal Intelligent Robotic Surgical System. Participants are adults with orthopaedic trauma who require surgery, recruited at The Chinese University of Hong Kong with Prince of Wales Hospital as lead sponsor.
