Pilot Trial of the Robotic Uterine Manipulator

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Gynecologic Surgery
Interventions
Device: BAUM device
Registration Number
NCT03517228
Lead Sponsor
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test a robotic uterine manipulator system called the Barakat Automated Uterine Manipulator (BAUM), which will assist the surgeon in moving and positioning the uterus during a hysterectomy. This new device will allow the surgeon to control the movements of the robotic arm directly instead of giving verbal instructions to a staff member. The BAUM has never been used during surgeries before this trial. Overall, the study goal is to determine whether the use of this robotic uterine manipulator system can be safely used in the operating room while improving surgeon control during the procedure.
