Introduction: A chest X-ray (CXR) is the most common imaging investigation performed worldwide. Advances in machine learning and computer vision technologies have led to the development of several artificial intelligence (AI) tools to detect abnormalities on CXRs, which may expand diagnostic support to a wider field of health professionals. There is a paucity of evidence on the impact of AI algorithms in assisting healthcare professionals (other than radiologists) who regularly review CXR images in their daily practice.

In such cases, initial entry is usually performed with a Veress needle via Palmer's point (PP). However, it is associated with an increased failure rate, especially in obese patients.

Robotic-assisted surgery offers several advantages over traditional methods, such as reduced blood loss and fewer complications. Establishing pneumoperitoneum is a critical step, with two primary techniques: the Veress needle (closed) and the Hasson (open) technique. Despite extensive studies in laparoscopic surgery, limited data exist regarding their use in robotic surgery.

Methods: The total of 187 adult patients with primary inguinal hernia who successfully underwent transabdominal preperitoneal prosthesis (TAPP) from September 2021 to September 2023 in the Department of General Surgery, Haimen People's Hospital affiliated to Nantong University, were collected. These patients were randomly divided into low abdominal pressure group (group A: pneumoperitoneum pressure = 8 mmHg), sub-low abdominal pressure group (group B: pneumoperitoneum pressure = 10 mmHg), moderate abdominal pressure group (group C: pneumoperitoneum pressure = 12 mmHg), and standard pressure group (group D: pneumoperitoneum pressure = 14 mmHg), with 40 patients each.
