Various surgical hubs are disclosed. A surgical hub is for use with a surgical system in a surgical procedure performed in an operating room. The surgical hub comprises a control circuit configured to: pair the surgical hub with a first device of the surgical system; assign a first identifier to the first device; pair the surgical hub with a second device of the surgical system; assign a second identifier to the second device; and selectively pair the first device with the second device based on perioperative data.

A robotic surgical system can include one or more adjustable arm supports that support one or more robotic arms. The adjustable arm supports can be configured to attach to either a table, a column support of the table, or a base of the table to deploy the adjustable arm supports and robotic arms from a position below the table. In some examples, the adjustable arm supports include at least four degrees of freedom that allow for adjustment of the position of a bar or rail to which the robotic arms are mounted. One of the degrees of freedom can allow the adjustable arm support to be adjusted vertically relative to the table.

A medical device is provided. The medical device includes an adaptor, a parallel manipulator, a shaft motor, a transmission shaft and a force transducer. The force transducer is disposed between the adaptor and an end platform of the parallel manipulator, and the force transducer has a through hole. The receiving shaft of the adaptor meets the transmission shaft in the through hole to receive the mechanical force from the transmission shaft to manipulate movement of the surgical tool.

The present application relates to the technical field of medical robots, and in particular, to a slave driving device of an interventional surgical robot and an elongated medical instrument delivery method. The slave driving device includes: a frame; a first driving mechanism, fixedly arranged on the frame to clamp one end of an elongated medical instrument to deliver the elongated medical instrument; and a second driving mechanism, movably arranged on the frame to clamp the other end of the elongated medical instrument to deliver the elongated medical instrument through movement on the frame. Since only the second driving mechanism is able to move on the frame, the overall size of the slave driving device is reduced by using a reasonable structural design, and the occupied space and the overall weight of the slave driving device are reduced, thereby facilitating the spatial layout of the surgical robot.

Various surgical systems are disclosed. A surgical system comprises a robotic system. The robotic system comprises a control unit; a robotic arm comprising an attachment portion; a first sensor system in signal communication with the control unit; and a second sensor system. The first sensor system is configured to detect a position of the attachment portion. A surgical tool is removably attached to the attachment portion. The second sensor system is independent of the first sensor system and is configured to detect a position of the surgical tool.

Featured is a robot and a needle delivery apparatus. Such a robot comprises a plurality of actuators coupled to control locating any of number of intervention specific medical devices such as intervention specific needle injectors. Such a robot is usable with image guided interventions using any of a number of types of medical imaging devices or apparatuses including Mill. The end-effector can include an automated low needle delivery apparatus that is configured for dose radiation seed brachytherapy injection. Also featured is an automated seed magazine for delivering seeds to such an needle delivery apparatus adapted for brachytherapy seed injection.

A robotic surgical system for performing surgery, the system includes a robotic arm having a force and/or torque control sensor coupled to the end-effector and configured to hold a first surgical tool. The robotic system further includes an actuator that includes controlled movement of the robotic arm and/or positioning of the end-effector. The system further includes a tracking detector having optical markers for real time detection of (i) surgical tool position and/or end-effector position and (ii) patient position. The system also includes a feedback system for moving the end effector to a planned trajectory based on the threshold distance between the planned trajectory and the actual trajectory.

A mounting system for coupling first and second surgical components. The mounting system comprises a first mounting portion associated with the first surgical component, a second mounting portion associated with the second surgical component and comprising a tensioner movable between a first position and a second position, and a sterile barrier assembly. The sterile barrier assembly comprises a coupling configured to releasably secure to the first mounting portion and to releasably receive the second mounting portion when the tensioner of the second mounting portion is in the first position, and a plurality of kinematic couplers configured to engage the mounting portions and arranged to provide a kinematic coupling between the mounting portions through the sterile barrier assembly to constrain six degrees of freedom of movement between the surgical components when the tensioner of the second mounting portion is in the second position.

The present disclosure relates to high dexterity manipulation systems for microsurgical procedures. The surgical system includes a master apparatus controllably coupled to a slave apparatus configured to couple to a patient's head with a dual tripod structure having two pluralities of linear actuator links pivotally supporting a surgical tool shaft. The motions of the linear actuator links are controlled to provide at least 6 degrees of freedom for the surgical tool shaft. The slave apparatus may further include a redundant axis rotatable tool shaft, thus enabling 7 degrees of freedom for a surgical tool. The surgical system includes sensors enabling forces of interaction between the slave apparatus and its environment to be reflected back to the master apparatus. Forces imparted onto the master apparatus by an operator can be fed forward to control the slave apparatus and scaled down to reduce the forces on target tissues.

A surgical alignment device including a base, a guide, and a plurality of linear actuators each extending between the base and the guide. The plurality of linear actuators include first ends connected to the base at base joints and second ends connected to the guide at guide joints. A locking arrangement is configured to simultaneously lock all of the base joints or simultaneously lock all of the guide joints
