Exact data for docking time and the learning curve is missing. We describe for the first time the use of a laser-guided cart positioning to reduce the docking time. In this prospective monocentric study, the docking time was evalutated for a consecutive series of pelvic surgeries with the Hugo RAS system. In a subgroup, a cross-line laser was adapted at the cart for positioning using fix points at the ceiling. The medical personnel were classified as \u201cinexperienced\u201d with\u2009\u2264\u20095 consecutive dockings and as \u201cexperienced\u201d with\u2009&gt;\u20095 consecutive dockings. From 10\/2023 to 08\/2024, 82 procedures were performed with the Hugo RAS. For the evaluation 75 procedures could be considered. The mean docking time was 7.6\u2009\u00b1\u20093.5\u00a0min. There was a reduction in docking time from 13.5\u2009\u00b1\u20093.7\u00a0min in the first 5 procedures to 4.4\u2009\u00b1\u20090.9\u00a0min in the last 5 procedures (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). Docking with laser (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u200945) was faster than without laser (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u200930) (6.2\u2009\u00b1\u20092.5 vs. 9.8\u2009\u00b1\u20093.7\u00a0min,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). Faster docking time was observed with inexperienced surgical nursing staff with laser than without laser (10.4\u2009\u00b1\u20093.7 vs. 5.4\u2009\u00b1\u20091.4\u00a0min;\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). With experienced nursing staff, the laser had no influence (6.6\u2009\u00b1\u20091.3 vs. 6.7\u2009\u00b1\u20092.9\u00a0min;\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.9). As a reference docking time for daVinci Xi procedures was 2.4\u2009\u00b1\u20091.7\u00a0min (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20095). Laser-guided cart positioning has a significant impact on docking time, especially for unexperienced medical personnel. Especially in the times of experienced staff shortage, laser-guided cart positioning can save operating time.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s11701-024-02196-y","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,6]],"date-time":"2025-01-06T12:36:15Z","timestamp":1736166975000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["The use of laser-assisted cart positioning significantly reduces the docking time of multimodular robotic systems"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5601-7587","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Martin","family":"Baunacke","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christopher","family":"Hirtsiefer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roman","family":"Herout","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sherif","family":"Mehralivand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Susanne","family":"Oelkers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Oliver","family":"Kaske","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Claudia","family":"Franz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Thomas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,6]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"2196_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"23","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ucl.2021.07.008","volume":"49","author":"SL Alip","year":"2022","unstructured":"Alip SL, Kim J, Rha KH, Han WK (2022) Future platforms of robotic surgery.
