15 years in surgical technology. We could use robots to wash, sort and sterilize instruments but the dexterity and anticipation of surgeons needs, communication in advance, perception of risk and patient care will not be replaced

Surgical technologist have already been replaced. There is a new title, which is O.R. Aide, Surgical Care Assistant etc., The only difference is that both of these 'New' professions are not required to pass instruments to surgeons, at least, not yet. Robots will be able to do this (passing instruments to surgeons) in the very near future. Therefore, allowing O.R. techs, surgical care assistants to fully replace surgical technologist...and with lower pay.

Anyone who knows anything about robotic assistant surgery and the scrub tech role and duties while scrubbed in during a robotic surgery knows there is a zero percent chance of this happening.

Not only do I think this will be replaced but also the surgeon too. Think about it, they’re already making robots capable of precise manual dexterity movements in sewing and carpentry, then can be precise during surgery and programmed. The only real human needed in this circumstance is the anesthesiologist to keep the patient asleep during the procedure. Why would a hospital pay a 6 figure plus salary to a surgeon or 40-50,000 to the assistant when they can just have a robot do it for free? Have to remember most hospitals are “for-profit”

The robots are controlled my surgeons so creating a whole robot that has accuracy reliability and validity in operating on a patient and process the information of a human body properly is very unlikely. Also I feel like people would want to have human surgeons from the start anyways since they are not going to appear as reliable when they get introduced

Well, I think robots are likely to replace surgeons because as the time technology is getting better and better with time so robots can take our jobs and even do it better than us too.

Surgery sees a great deal of robotic devices these days, but those robotics are not AI, they are operated by surgeons.

In order for the job to become fully automated, robotics would need to reach a point where they could read situations and make decisions on their own, and the patients would need to trust those decisions with their lives.

That's something that I think is very far off.

Well, Humans are really good at this stuff if you go to college. And they could code some robot to know how to preform surgeries.

Because robotics is being introduced into this profession very quickly now
