Evaluation of safety-, acceptance- and efficiency-oriented movement paradigms for medical robotic systems in the context of human-robot interaction
Conditions
Interventions
Group 1: Online survey for evaluating different robotic movement patterns, separately for the use cases of patient interaction and staff interaction.
Group 2: Each participant goes through several sce

Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Medical professionals (e.g., medical students, nursing staff, physicians) employed in a hospital or other medical facility before or during the study (applies only to the “staff interaction” use case); experience with basic procedures in inpatient patient care (applies only to the “staff interaction” use case); Health status: No acute or chronic illnesses that could impair participation (= healthy participants); Vision and hearing: No impairments that would affect the perception of the robot interaction; Language skills: Good German or English skills to understand the study instructions and the questionnaire. Non-German-speaking participants may be included if adequate information is provided in English and written consent is obtained; Consent: Written informed consent to participate in the study after thorough briefing
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Health status: Illnesses that could affect participation or be affected by participation; Visual or hearing impairments: Any limitations that would influence the perception of the interaction; Insufficient language skills: Individuals who do not have adequate German or English language skills to meaningfully evaluate the user interface and the questionnaire; Multiple study load: Participation in other studies with similar demands (to avoid overlap effects)
