ABSTRACT

The integration of robotics into clinical practice has shifted from experimental application to a structural necessity in modern medicine. By 2026, healthcare robotics has evolved to encompass three primary pillars: surgical precision, rehabilitation efficiency, and patient support systems. This article reviews the current state of these technologies, highlighting the transition toward AI-driven autonomous systems, the expansion of robotic-assisted procedures in India, and the ethical considerations of human-robot collaboration in hospital environments. As surgical robotics reduces recovery times by 50% and rehabilitation robotics addresses the needs of a growing aging population, the focus has shifted toward democratizing access and ensuring seamless integration into existing clinical workflows.

Keywords: Robotic-Assisted Surgery (RAS); Rehabilitation Robotics; Healthcare Automation; Human–Robot Collaboration; Automation
