What are the tasks of an assisting nurse contained by a min. invasive surgery operation?

I need some infos for a situation to do at university. I'm italian so talk as clear as possible, thankfulness.
The title of my essay is "Technological innovations & nursing competences: what a nurse has to do and what he have to know during a minimally invasive surgery operation".
Thank you very much for everyone will answer this. :-) The tasks of the scrub (assisting) nurse surrounded by minimally invasive surgery are similar to that during major surgery.
They are responsible for setting up the instruments for the surgery, protecting the sterile enviroment (many a time I own been shouted at not to touch this or that by the scrub nurse lol), providing the surgeon beside the correct instruments and other materials during the operation, and in some cases assisting within the operation.
In some operations such as colonoscopy, where on earth sterility in not of utmost imprtance, the role of the assisting nurse can be to do in recent times about anything. From checking the equpment getting KY jelly out of the drawer.
Any surgery is serious and can become completely serious and invasive in literally a heart pound! The duty of the nurse is to be a complete nurse regardless the level of the surgery!
