An ultrasonically actuated medical implement is used in improving medical interventions and in certain instances to the generation of image data, in particular data acquired during a medical intervention or procedure. The medical implement employs a piezoelectric element which causes reciprocation between first and second mass assemblies in order to ultrasonically actuate a probe member and improve the visibility of the probe member to imaging methods. The invention also concerns the visibility of structures in target regions to be imaged and how this may be enhanced using the medical implement of the invention.

An ultrasonic instrument includes a body and a shaft assembly extending distally from the body. The shaft assembly includes an acoustic waveguide. The instrument further includes an end effector including an ultrasonic blade. The ultrasonic blade is in acoustic communication with the acoustic waveguide. The instrument further includes a sensor configured to sense at least one characteristic of the shaft assembly and/or the end effector. The end effector is configured to be activated at varying power levels based on the at least one characteristic sensed by the sensor.

A medical instrument includes a first device (108) including shape-sensed flexible instrument, a second device (102) disposed over the first device and a third device (109) disposed over the first device and a portion of the second device. The second and third devices include a geometric relationship such that a position of the second device and the third device is determined from shape sensing information of the first device and the geometric relationship.

The present invention proposes a wearable blood pressure measurement and antihemorrhagic device comprising a tightening system adapted to tighten a tightening device on or around the region of interest, wherein the tightening system is adapted to be automatically adjusted in one of a plurality of fastening positions, and one of a processor or control circuitry to control the tightening system. The present invention also proposes a method of measuring blood pressure for measuring at least one of the following: the systolic pressure and/or diastolic pressure of a user, the device comprising such a tightening device, wherein the tightening device is placed on a region of interest to measure at least one of the following: the systolic pressure and/or diastolic pressure, and a blood sensor placed on one side of the tightening system, wherein the blood sensor is, for example, a PPG sensor.

A computer-implemented method for collecting data within a facility is disclosed. The method includes receiving, by a computer system, perioperative data from a plurality of surgical devices located within the facility, the perioperative data associated with a plurality of surgical procedures performed in the facility; determining, by the computer system, procedural context data associated with the plurality of surgical procedures based at least in part on the perioperative data; aggregating, by the computer system, the perioperative data according to the procedural context data; and determining, by the computer system, trends associated with the surgical procedures performed in the facility according to the perioperative data and the procedural context data.
