Abstract
Robotic systems are increasingly being used in healthcare. These systems improve patient care both by freeing healthcare professionals from repetitive tasks and by assisting them with complex procedures. This analysis examines the development and implementation of the use of robotic systems in healthcare. It also examines the application of artificial intelligence (AI), which focuses on the autonomy of robotic systems, enabling them to perform tasks autonomously. It describes the main areas of use of robots in hospitals, gives examples of the main commercial or research robots, and analyzes the main practical and safety issues associated with the use of these systems. Using the main databases, including PubMed, IEEE Xplore, MDPI, ScienceDirect, ACM Digital Library, BioMed Central, Springer, and others, an extensive search for papers related to the topic was conducted. This resulted in 59 papers being identified as eligible for this review. The article concludes with a discussion of future research areas that will ensure the effective integration of autonomous robotic systems in healthcare.
