Computer-assisted surgery (CAS) or computer-assisted therapy (CAT) attempt primarily to optimize the performance of medical tasks. CAS systems include a guiding system to connect the information world of data and plans to the physical world of surgeons, patients and instruments, and to supplement the surgeon's perception and dexterity. Passive, semi-active and active systems have been proposed and implemented in various clinical applications. In this paper we introduce synergistic devices which are an extension of semi-active systems. We also discuss the advantages of the different categories of guiding systems on the basis of a list of task-oriented and user-oriented qualitative factors.

56 transfusion dependent patients, 42 with thalassaemia major, were given the oral iron chelator deferiprone 75 mg/kg daily long term. 29 patients continued the drug until the time of analysis, in 12 for over 36 months, whereas 27 have discontinued the drug after 1-36 (mean 17) months. In the patients continuing deferiprone there has been been no significant overall change in serum ferritin or urine iron excretion for groups analysed for up to 1 year, 1-3 years and greater than 3 years. Among the thalassaemia major patients. discontinuation of the drug was more likely to occur in females than males and in those with initially the highest serum ferritin levels.

Troccaz J, Peshkin M, Davies B, 1997, The use of localizers, robots and synergistic devices in CAS, Pages: 727-736, ISSN: 0302-9743

There are many roles for electromechanical devices in image guided surgery. One is to help a surgeon accurately follow a preoperative plan. Devices for this purpose may be localizers, robots4, or recently, synergistic systems in which surgeon and mechanism physically share control of the surgical tool. This paper discusses available technologies, and some emerging technologies, for guiding a surgical tool. Characteristics of each technology are discussed, and related to the needs which arise in surgical procedures. Three different approaches to synergistic systems, under study by the authors (PADyC, ACROBOT, and Cobots), are highlighted.
