Robotic Uro-oncological surgery. Nursing skills and future perspectives

The robotic nurse has an essential role in the robotics surgical team to successful robotic surgery. The operating room nurse takes on essential and specific roles, based on advanced skills. The studies published on this topic show that the nursing role positively impacts surgery outcomes; reduced mortality, reduced recovery time, reduced costs, lower complications, and greater patient satisfaction. This paper aims to describe the prin-cipal nursing skills and role in the robotic surgical contest, especially in the uro-oncological one. Moreover, in the last section, offers possible future research ideas on this topic to reach and maintain safe and high-quality care.
