In recent years, surgical robots have become instrumental tools for assisting surgeons in performing complex surgical procedures in hospitals. Unlike conventional surgical methods, robotic systems help surgeons, for example, to perform minimally invasive surgical procedures while enhancing the precision and control of operations (e.g. tiny incisions, wound sutures, endoscopic suturing, among others). To this extent, it is essential to consider several factors that may influence the feasibility and decision making of employing robotic systems in surgical procedures. In this paper, we propose an IoT-based self-adaptive approach that uses multi-criteria decision analysis methods (MCDA) for enhancing the decision making of operations involving surgical robots. Throughout this paper, we present experimental validation results in utilizing MCDA as an effective strategy for enhancing the decisions of employing robotic systems in surgical procedures.
