aceWillingness to undergo autonomous robotic surgery in Jordanian medical students: a national multicenter cross-sectional survey
Surgical robots in clinical use operate under continuous human control, yet research systems now perform surgical tasks on their own. Patient willingness may limit adoption, and to our knowledge no study has measured willingness across defined levels of autonomy while holding performance constant. To estimate the willingness of Jordanian medical students to undergo high-autonomy robotic surgery with immediate surgeon oversight and to quantify how willingness changes as autonomy increases. We conducted a national…
Willingness to undergo autonomous robotic surgery dropped steeply as AI took over surgical steps and surgeon rescue was removed, which may limit adoption of high-autonomy systems.
The sample was a convenience sample of medical students, and the authors state that patients' views remain untested.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1984 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
