SURGICAL ROBOT PLATFORM
A medical robot system, including a robot coupled to an end effector element with the robot configured for controlled movement and positioning. The robot system includes a robot base having a display, a robot arm coupled to the robot base, wherein movement of the robot arm is electronically controlled by the robot base. The end-effector is coupled to the robot arm, containing one or more end-effector tracking markers. The system also includes a plurality of dynamic reference bases (DRB) attached to multiple patient fixture instruments, wherein the plurality of dynamic reference bases include one or more tracking markers indicating a position of the patient fixture instrument in a navigational space. The system also includes a first camera system and a second camera system, the first and second camera systems being able to detect a plurality of tracking markers.
Melt-Blown Webs Without Shots and With Improved Barrier Properties
Melt-blown webs having no shots and improved barrier properties, whereby the melt-blown webs are made out of a so-called “controlled rheology” propylene (CR-PP), which was visbroken without any peroxide.
SPUNBOND NONWOVEN FABRIC, NONWOVEN FABRIC LAYERED BODY, MEDICAL CLOTHING, DRAPE, AND MELT BLOWN NONWOVEN FABRIC
A spunbond nonwoven fabric, comprising fibers of a propylene-based polymer composition containing 100 parts by mass of a propylene-based polymer (A) and 1 part by mass to 10 parts by mass of an ethylene-based polymer (B) having a density of from 0.93 g/cm.sup.3 to 0.98 g/cm.sup.3, wherein air permeability measured in accordance with JIS L 1096 (2010) by a Frazier type air permeability tester at a flow rate corresponding to a pressure differential of 125 Pa is 500 cm.sup.3/cm.sup.2/s or less.
FLUID INFUSION SYSTEM
A fluid infusion system includes an air pump connected to an accumulator tank to produce pressurized air that is stored in the accumulator tank. The system can include one or more fluid bag chambers wherein each fluid bag chamber includes an inflatable bladder positioned inside the fluid bag chamber to apply pressure on the fluid bag supported inside the chamber. The fluid bag can be connected by a tube set to deliver fluid from the fluid bag to a surgical tool at a surgical site. The fluid can, for example, be irrigation fluid or distention fluid. The system can include a controller connected to the pump to control the pump to produce the pressurized air and an adjustable pressure regulator can be connected between the accumulator tank and the inflatable bladder to control the pressure of air delivered to the inflatable bladder and the pressure that the fluid is delivered to the surgical tool. A pressure sensor can be connected between the adjustable pressure regulator and the inflatable bladder to measure the air pressure delivered to the inflatable bladder and send the air pressure measurements to the controller. The controller can configure the system display to show the air pressure measured by the pressure sensor.

Intubation drape
A medical drape which is positioned over the head and upper torso of a patient is disclosed which includes a head flap, a head portion, a torso portion, and two oppositely disposed arm portions. The head flap is of a sufficient length to extend about the backside of the patient=s head. The head portion includes oppositely disposed side wings which aid in covering the head of a patient. Each arm portion includes an access slot extending through the arm portion.
MULTI-FUNCTIONAL PROTECTIVE SLEEVE FOR WOUND OF SOFT TISSUE DURING OPERATION
A multi-functional soft tissue wound protective sleeve includes: a waste collection bag including a bottom patch and a surface patch connected to form a cavity; a bottom ring to be inserted into a human body, to push away human tissues surrounding the bottom ring to form a surgery space; a flip ring located above the waste collection bag and having an adjustable distance with the bottom ring, to prevent waste from touching a surgical surface; a medical inner membrane connecting the bottom ring to the flip ring and defining a surgery channel to the surgery space; a positioning ring sealed with a hole edge of the surgery through-hole on the bottom patch; and a medical outer membrane connecting the positioning ring to the flip ring so as to guide waste escaping the surgery channel over the flip ring to flow into the waste collection bag.
Method for placing implant using robotic system
A method for placing an implant on a patient in a robotic surgical procedure using a robotic system. During the robotic surgical procedure, a navigation system tracks the patient. The navigation system also provides information to the robotic system to guide movement of a cutting tool to remove material from the patient such that a cut surface is created to receive the implant. The implant is then robotically placed on the cut surface.
