Technology Behavior Model—Impact of Extended Reality on Patient Surgery

Abstract

Smart surgery is a new way to utilize smart devices to change existing surgeries. Smart glasses can enhance the surgical procedure so that the patient can understand the procedure more intuitively. Surgery is for patients, and patient acceptance of extended reality surgery is the purpose of this study. This study uses the technology behavior model, which is more in line with the user’s assessment of the acceptance behavior of the new technology. A triangulated research approach was used, which applies to this study for a specific patient population. Primary data were collected from hospitals through questionnaires and were statistically analyzed by CB&PLS-SEM multimodel using SmartPLS software. It was concluded that patients were influenced by operational emotional factors in undergoing extended reality surgery. The study provides a basis for future research related to the practical application of smart surgery from the patient’s perspective in viewing and accepting surgery.
