Modules for housing electronic and electromechanical medical equipment including a system to measure and record administration of one or more IV medications or fluids for IV administration.

END EFFECTOR IDENTIFICATION IN SURGICAL ROBOTIC SYSTEMS

Systems, methods, and devices are disclosed for end effector identification in robotic surgical systems. A surgical robot can be coupled to an end effector. The system can identify the end effector using data received from the end effector. The system can adjust operation of the surgical system, including the robot arm, based on the data received from the end effector. Data received from or regarding the end effector can include detected characteristics, retrieved characteristics, or data stored on the end effector and communicated to the system. Both the identification and the operation adjustments can be performed automatically such that the system experiences little to no lag or downtime when coupling with different end effectors.

Surgical RFID assemblies for display and communication

A control system for a surgical instrument for use with a surgical system. The surgical system includes a first device and a second device, which can include a surgical hub, a visualization system, or a robotic system. The control system includes an RFID scanner and a control circuit coupled to the RFID scanner. The control circuit is configured to receive data from RFID tags associated with the devices, determine a communication protocol for communicating with the devices, and accordingly cause the surgical instrument to utilize the determined communication protocol to establish a communication link between the surgical instrument and the devices.

Device interoperation

A surgical robotic system comprising: a surgical robot; a user interface console coupled to the surgical robot whereby a user can control motion of the surgical robot; a data logger for logging data from a surgical procedure performed by means of the robot; and a portable user terminal; the system further comprising: a display controllable by one of the data logger and the user terminal, that one of the data logger and the user terminal being configured for displaying a machine-readable code whereby the data logger or a user of the user terminal can be identified; and a camera coupled to the other of the data logger and the user terminal; the said other of the data logger and the user terminal being configured to, on receiving from the camera an image of a machine-readable code, decode that code to identify the data logger or a user of the user terminal and to cause the identified entity to be logged in association with a procedure performed by means of the robot.

Engagement, homing, and control of robotics surgical instrument

The disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for a surgical tool or a surgical robotic system. A tool driver is coupled to a distal end of a robotic arm and includes a roll drive disk driven by a rotary motor. One or more processors are configured to detect an attachment of a surgical tool to the tool driver. The surgical tool includes a roll tool disk to be engaged with the roll drive disk of the tool driver, actuate of the roll drive disk through the rotary motor, determine that a measured torque of the rotary motor exceeds a preset torque threshold for a preset period of time since the actuation, and report a successful engagement between the roll drive disk and the roll tool disk.

PENICILLIN ALLERGY TEST KIT
20230008497 · 2023-01-12 ·

The kit evaluates the patient's skin for penicillin sensitivity. The kit comprises a container, a multi-site skin test system, four preloaded syringes, and a tattoo-type label that is transferable onto the patient's skin. A multi-site skin test applicator is cooperatively engageable with four reservoirs in a fluid tray. The applicator pierces the patient's skin as trace amounts of the allergy test fluids are simultaneously administered. The tattoo-type label is transferable onto the skin of the patient and includes a QR Code. The QR Code includes machine-readable linkage to artificial intelligence for assisting a doctor in interpreting patient test results. The doctor reviews the artificial intelligence analysis and decides either to accept the analysis or modify it. The doctor may also decide to verify negative results with a subcutaneous skin test. The four syringes for the subcutaneous skin tests are preloaded with saline, Pre-Pen, Pen-G, and histamine.

REAL TIME IMAGE GUIDED PORTABLE ROBOTIC INTERVENTION SYSTEM

An image-guided robotic intervention system (“IGRIS”) may be used to perform medical procedures on patients. IGRIS provides a real-time view of patient anatomy, as well as an intended target or targets for the procedures, software that allows a user to plan an approach or trajectory path using either the image or the robotic device, software that allows a user to convert a series of 2D images into a 3D volume, and localizes the 3D volume with respect to real-time images during the procedure. IGRIS may include sensors to estimate pose of the imaging device relative to the patient to improve the performance of that software with respect to runtime, robustness, and accuracy.
