ELASTOMER THIN SLEEVE FOLDING MECHANISM
A folding device for placing an elastomer thin sleeve on a retainer includes a mandrel, one or more rollers, and a drive system. The mandrel is configured to translate relative to a portion of the folding device. The mandrel is adapted to releasably receive the retainer. The one or more rollers are configured to rotate relative to the mandrel. The rotation of the one or more rollers being configured to fold the sleeve onto the retainer. The drive system is configured to translate the mandrel and turn the one or more rollers.
Robotic surgical assemblies
A surgical instrument holder includes a carriage, a housing, and a drive assembly. The carriage is configured for engagement to a surgical robotic arm and for supporting an instrument drive unit. The housing extends from the carriage and defines a channel. The drive assembly includes a pulley, a belt, and an annular member. The pulley is rotatably disposed within the housing and in operable engagement with a motor of the carriage such that actuation of the motor rotates the pulley. The belt is rotatably disposed within the housing and in operable engagement with the pulley such that rotation of the pulley effects rotation of the belt. The annular member is disposed within the channel of the housing and configured for non-rotatable receipt of an instrument drive unit. The annular member is in operable engagement with the belt such that rotation of the belt effects rotation of the annular member.
MEDICAL DRAPE
Disclosed is herein a medical drape, and more particularly, a drape capable of preventing sprays generated from the mouth of a patient during dental treatment from being diffused by a first guard or the like to improve hygiene and fixation.
Sterile cover for a mixed reality (MR) device
Disclosed is a sterile cover (100) for a Mixed Reality (MR) device (101). The sterile cover (100) may comprise a first case (102) arranged for covering a front side of the MR device (101). The first case (102) may comprise a hard case with an embedded clear layer (114) for covering a glass area of the front side of the MR device (101). The sterile cover (100) may further comprise a second case (104). The second case (104) may be arranged for covering a headband side of the MR device (101). The second case (104) may comprise a stretchable case for allowing a flexible adjustment of the headband side of the MR device (101) within the second case (104).
System and method for increased operating room efficiency
Systems, devices and methods to improve safety and efficiency in an operating room comprise providing a suture package that holds new suture needles and needle receptacles for storing used needles. The devices can be safely worn for the surgeon to self-dispense new suture needles in the near surgical field and to secure the used needles into a needle trap or a needle retainer located on his extremity, on his operative instruments or on the surgical drapes. The device may provide automated and/or simplified needle counting both during use and after removal from the surgical field. The device may be configured for ergonomic and efficient use so as to minimize the actions and motions of the surgeon to dispense and secure the needle.

Prosthetic implant delivery device and method
A prosthetic implant transfer device is provided that may be used to insert a prosthetic implant through a surgical opening. In some embodiments, the device may comprise a flexible sheet of material that may be formed into an elongated hollow structure. The flexible sheet of material includes a plurality of fasteners that may be selected and engaged to define a desired size distal opening.

Pocket and drape system for providing sterile fields
A pocket and drape system which provides multiple (e.g., at least two) sterile fields and the methodology for employing said pocket and drape system is provided. The system includes a base drape material having an upper edge, lower edge, first side edge, and second side edge to define a perimeter, where the base drape material also includes a first (outer) surface and a second (inner) surface. A first zone of pockets is present on a portion of the first surface and a second zone of pockets present on a portion of the second surface. The manner in which the base drape material is folded at first and second longitudinal fold lines and first and second transverse fold lines during assembly (e.g., prior to sterilization) maintains the sterility of the first zone of pockets and the second zone of pockets until each zone is ready for use during a medical procedure.
DEVICE FOR BLOOD LOSS MEASUREMENT FOLLOWING CHILDBIRTH TO DETECT POSTPARTUM HEMORRHAGE
A device for detecting postpartum hemorrhage is provided. A mat defines a proximal end and a distal end. The mat is configured to be disposed between a support and a patient and has a surface with a fluid flow region configured to direct flow of bodily fluids from the patient towards the distal end of the mat. A first detachable and optionally sealable bag is configured to receive the bodily fluids from the patient in a first operational mode of the device. A second sealable bag is configured to receive the bodily fluids from the patient in a second operational mode of the device. The second sealable bag comprises a visual volume indicator to measure the bodily fluids collected in the second sealable bag.
