Differential analysis of muscle fatigue induced elbow and wrist tremor in controlled laparoscopic manoeuvring

ConclusionsIn this work, we have investigated the attribution of elbow and wrist joints in FIT during laparoscopic tool manipulation. The outcomes may be useful for the design of robot‐assisted surgical manipulator, and can be used for quality assessment of surgical training as well.
