Surgical support system
A surgical table extension comprises a frame and a connector. The frame includes a surgical table connecting portion, a first connector, and a second connector. The connector enabler is movably coupled to the frame and is configured to selectively enable one of the first connector and the second connector to be removably coupled with a support device.
GRIPPING CLAW FOR MOUNTING ON A SLIDE RAIL OF AN OPERATING TABLE
A clamping apparatus is disclosed. The clamping apparatus has a main body having at least one bearing surface designed to bear against the structural member of the operating table. The clamping apparatus also has a clamp assembly that is attached to the main body and has a first bearing member and a second bearing member. The clamping apparatus further has an actuating assembly that is operatively connected to the clamp assembly and that actuates the clamp assembly into a locked state in which the at least one bearing surface of the main body and the first and second bearing members of the clamp assembly bear against the structural member.
OPERATING TABLE BARRIERS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
In one embodiment, a barrier includes two side panels extending on parallel planes and spaced laterally apart. Each side panel including a back end, a front edge opposed to the back end, a bottom edge, and an engagement feature on the bottom edge of each side panel. A back panel connects the side panels at the back ends, and a shield extends from an upper end of the back panel at an oblique angle in an upward and forward direction.
PATIENT SUPPORT APPARATUS WITH SUPPORT ASSEMBLY FOR MEDICAL DEVICE
A patient support apparatus for concurrently transporting a patient and a medical device includes a base and an intermediate frame coupled to the base and further includes a support assembly coupled to the intermediate frame. The support assembly supports the medical device for concurrent movement with the patient support apparatus. The support assembly includes a track extending between first and second track ends with at least one curvilinear region defined therebetween and includes a carrier for selective movement between the ends. The support assembly also includes a mount coupled to the track and configured to support the medical advice. The support assembly further includes a retainer operatively attached to the carrier with the carrier operable between an engaged state to inhibit relative movement of the carrier along the track and a disengaged state to permit movement of the carrier along the track.
Sterile surgical drape for ophthalmic surgery
The disclosure herein provides methods, systems, and devices for a sterile ophthalmic surgical drape system that can provide a sterile operating field for use by a doctor, surgeon, nurse, and the like during ophthalmic medical procedures. The sterile field created by the drape system can allow a doctor, surgeon, nurse and the like to perform a medical procedure, such as ophthalmic surgery, outside of an operating room and in locations such as a doctor's office or a military operating room war setting. The sterile ophthalmic surgical drape system can comprise a drape, a frame apparatus, a hole of sufficient size for a microscope, a fan, a filter, air directors, and slits. The drape system can comprise a collapsible frame apparatus. The drape system may be configured to be used in conjunction with a surgical tray that houses pre-sterilized tools for use in a medical procedure.
ELECTROMAGNETIC DISTORTION DETECTION AND COMPENSATION
Systems and methods for electromagnetic (EM) distortion detection and compensation are disclosed. In one aspect, the system includes an instrument, the system configured to: determine a reference position of the distal end of the instrument at a first time based on EM location data, determine that the distal end of the instrument at a second time is static, and determine that the EM location data at the second time is indicative of a position of the distal end of the instrument having changed from the reference position by greater than a threshold distance. The system is further configured to: determine a current offset based on the distance between the position at the second time and the reference position at the first time, and determine a compensated position of the distal end of the instrument based on the EM location data and the current offset.
Operating table for robotic surgical systems
An actuating system including at least one actuation section that includes a plurality of actuating supports. Each of the actuating supports includes a shaft assembly and configured to be actuated individually. The shaft assembly of each of the plurality of actuating supports is configured to translate between a first position and a second position. In the first position an actuated actuating support is aligned with the remaining of the plurality of actuating supports and in the second position the actuated actuating support is misaligned with the remaining of the plurality of actuating supports.
Adjustable lithotomy positioning apparatus with a limb rest
A limb support comprises a spar, a limb rest, and a coupler. The spar is configured to be supported from a patient support apparatus and adjustable relative to the patient support and has a longitudinal axis. The coupler includes a release that is selectively actuable to release locking mechanisms to permit adjustment of the limb rest relative to the spar.
Clamping device
A system with a clamping device attached to a clamping object is provided. One example clamping device includes a clamping jaw configured to pivot about a hinge and including a first clamping arm configured to interface with a first side of a clamping object and a body including a second clamping arm configured to interface with a second side of the clamping object, where the second side opposes the first side. The clamping device further includes a knob including a pin configured to axially translate toward and away from a third side of the clamping object, where the third side extends between the first side and the second side of the clamping object.
OPERATING ROOM (OR) TABLE COVER
An OR table disposable cover includes a sheet, fluid absorbent on a top side, and fluid impermeable on an opposite, bottom side; a angled support wedge positioned in a head support region on the top side of the sheet; and a soft foam ring member on a top of the angled support which in concert with its underlying support wedge maintains a patient's head in a sniff position. Also provided is a barrier cover having a patient head support member adjacent one end, said head support member being canted at an about 15° angle to the cover, and an operating table carriage that interfaces with the patient either directly, or through a cushion that allows the patient's head to translate along an Y axis of the rail.
