A method of displaying an operational parameter of a surgical system is disclosed. The method includes receiving, by a cloud computing system of the surgical system, first usage data, from a first subset of surgical hubs of the surgical system; receiving, by the cloud computing system, second usage data, from a second subset of surgical hubs of the surgical system; analyzing, by the cloud computing system, the first and the second usage data to correlate the first and the second usage data with surgical outcome data; determining, by the cloud computing system, based on the correlation, a recommended medical resource usage configuration; and displaying, on respective displays on the first and the second subset of surgical hubs, indications of the recommended medical resource usage configuration.

An apparatus includes an occlusion device operable to fit securely in an anatomical passageway within a head of a human. The occlusion device is configured to move unitarily with the head when the occlusion device is installed in the anatomical passageway. The occlusion device is further configured to prevent passage of fluid through the anatomical passageway when the occlusion device is installed in the anatomical passageway. A position sensor is fixedly integrated into the occlusion device. The position sensor generates signals indicating a position of the occlusion device in three-dimensional space, thereby indicating the position of the head in three-dimensional space. A connector communicatively coupled to the position sensor is operable to receive and transmit the signals generated by the position sensor.

The present disclosure includes apparatuses for a bone graft harvesting device. An example apparatus includes a blade tip including a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the distal end of the blade tip includes a number of blades configured to morcellate bone in response to being rotated and a lead tip located within the blade tip and configured to maintain the bone graft harvesting apparatus centered on a bone graft punch hole.

The control handle includes a housing and a manipulation portion disposed in the housing, the manipulation portion can move axially relative to the housing; the grasping device or the cutting device includes an elongated member, and the manipulation portion drives the elongated member to move axially; the elongated member is partially located in the housing, and a first limiting structure is further disposed in the housing, the first limiting structure has a groove or a through hole, and a portion of the elongated member located in the housing is at least partially disposed in the groove or the through hole of the first limiting structure.

A surgical retractor includes a mounting base, a first rod member, a connecting member, a compression spring, a second rod member, an expansion member, an extension spring and a position member. One end of the first rod member is assembled on the mounting base, and the other end of the first rod member includes a blocking part; the connecting member is assembled on the first rod member and includes a shoulder and a first connecting part; the compression spring is arranged on the connecting member and abuts against the shoulder and the blocking part; the second rod member is slidably arranged on the first rod member; the expansion member is arranged at the end of the second rod member and includes a second connecting part; an extension spring connects the first connecting part and the second connecting part; a position member selectively abuts against the first rod member.

A system and method that includes inserting a needle of a phacoemulsification handpiece into an eye of a patient and vibrating the needle in a first trajectory. Matter from the eye is aspirated via an aspiration line while the needle is vibrated in the first trajectory. An indication is received, of a vacuum level in the aspiration line. Determined is, that the vacuum level has changed by at least a preset vacuum level change, and in response vibrating the needle is switched to a second trajectory, different from the first trajectory.

As various embodiments of the present disclosure related to an electronic cell separating apparatus using ultrasonic waves are described, a cell separating apparatus according to an embodiment may include: a fat removal body part; a handpiece including an ultrasonic wave generating unit electrically connected to the fat removal body part; a tip part provided in the handpiece; a temperature sensor unit for detecting the temperature of the tip part, the temperature sensor unit being provided in the tip part; an interlocked pump part for feeding cooling water to the tip part, the interlocked pump part being disposed in the body unit and being connected to the handpiece; and a controller for receiving a signal detected by the temperature sensor unit, and operating the interlocked pump part at a preconfigured temperature. In addition, there may be various other embodiments related to the cell separating apparatus.

Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. A method in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, positioning a distal portion of a catheter proximate to the clot material within the blood vessel. The method can further include coupling a pressure source to the catheter via a tubing subsystem including a valve or other fluid control device and, while the valve is closed, activating the pressure source to charge a vacuum. The valve can then be opened to apply the vacuum to the catheter to thereby aspirate at least a portion of the clot material from the blood vessel and into the catheter.

In some embodiments an apparatus for providing access for a medical procedure in a patient's body cavity includes a stem configured for insertion through an opening in a body cavity wall. The stem has a bore and a cap is disposed at a proximal end thereof and includes an entry port in communication with the bore which receives an instrument to be inserted into the body cavity. An inflatable annular seal is disposed on the stem proximate the cap and a conduit extends through the cap providing pressurized gas at a first outlet in fluid communication with the body cavity providing insufflation pressure. A second outlet of the conduit is in fluid communication the seal, which when disposed inside the body cavity proximate the wall and inflated by pressurized gas, bears on an inner surface of the wall urging the cap into contact with an outer surface of the wall while sealing the opening.

A system for positioning a conduit within an ophthalmic surgical field comprises a conduit (12), a first fixation point (14) and a second fixation point (15). The first fixation point (14) comprises base structure (16) arranged to be secured in a fixed location, and a grip arrangement (18) configured to hold the conduit (12). The grip arrangement (18) is mounted on the base structure (16) by way of a ball joint structure (20, 22), with the ball joint structure (20, 22) being arranged to allow pivoting and rotational movement of the grip arrangement (18) with respect to the base structure (16). The second fixation point (15) is positioned remote from the first fixation point (14) at a predefined distance therefrom. A method for positioning a conduit with an ophthalmic surgical field is also described.
