Resumen

Subretinal injection (SI) is a novel drug delivery method, directly to retina for treatment of various eye disease.

However, manual injection requires surgical experience and precision due to physiological factors.

Robots offer solution to this issue, by reducing hand tremor and increased accuracy.

This systematic review analyzes current status on robot-assisted SI compared to conventional techniques.

Systematic search across 5 databases was conducted to identify studies comparing manual and robot-assisted SI procedures.

Extracted data included robotic systems, complications, and success rates.

Four studies, including one human trial, two ex vivo porcine eye studies, and one artificial eye model study were included in the synthesis.

The findings show early advantages of robot-assisted SI.

Compared to traditional interventions, robot procedures result in reduced tremor, what potentially lowers the risk of complications, including retinal tears and reflux.

The first in-human randomized trial showed encouraging results, with no significant differences in surgical times or complications between robot-assisted and manual SI.

However, major limitation of robot-assisted procedures is longer procedure time.

Robot-assisted SI holds promise by offering increased precision and stability, reducing human error and potentially improving clinical outcomes.

Challenges include cost, availability, and learning curve.

Overall, early stage of robot-assisted SI suggests advantages in precision, complication reduction, and potentially improved drug delivery.

Further research in human randomized trials is needed to fully assess its full-scale clinical application.
