ObjectiveTo review and evaluate the basic principles and advantages of orthopedic robot-assisted technology, research progress, clinical applications, and limitations in the field of traumatic orthopedics, especially in fracture reduction robots. Methods An extensive review of research literature on the principles of robot-assisted technology and fracture reduction robots was conducted to analyze the technical advantages and clinical efficacy and shortcomings, and to discuss the future development trends in this field. Results Orthopedic surgical robots can assist orthopedists in intuitive preoperative planning, precise intraoperative control, and minimally invasive operations. It greatly expands the ability of doctors to evaluate and treat orthopedic trauma. Trauma orthopedic surgery robot has achieved a breakthrough from basic research to clinical application, and the preliminary results show that the technology can significantly improve surgical precision and reduce surgical trauma. However, there are still problems such as insufficient evaluation of effectiveness, limited means of technology realization, and narrow clinical indications that need to be solved. ConclusionRobot-assisted technology has a broad application prospect in traumatic orthopedics, but the current development is still in the initial stage. It is necessary to strengthen the cooperative medical-industrial research, the construction of doctors’ communication platform, standardized training and data sharing in order to continuously promote the development of robot-assisted technology in traumatic orthopedics and better play its clinical application value.
