About

Dr. S. Davey is a pioneering researcher in orthopaedic surgery, with a focused expertise in the adoption and integration of emerging technologies, particularly Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery (CAOS) and robotics. Their work critically examines the gap between technological promise and clinical reality, identifying the key barriers—such as surgeon skepticism, workflow disruption, and training demands—that limit the uptake of innovations like image-guided and robotic systems for total joint arthroplasty. Dr. Davey’s most cited paper (16 citations) explores surgeon opinion on new technologies, highlighting the need for user-centered design to drive acceptance. While their citation counts reflect a niche but influential body of work, their contributions are foundational for understanding technology diffusion in orthopaedics, offering actionable insights for device developers and healthcare policymakers. By bridging engineering and clinical practice, Dr. Davey has shaped the discourse on how to responsibly integrate CAOS into modern surgical workflows, ensuring that future advancements align with real-world user needs.
