OPERATING ROOM WIRELESS POWER TRANSFER
SA surgical room power system including at least one source of power wired to a power source for a surgical room, the at least one source of power being wired to the surgical room; at least one power receiver; and a surgical power consumer wired to the at least one power receiver, the surgical power consumer being configured to assist a surgeon during a surgical procedure on a patient. The at least one source of power wirelessly transfers power to the at least one power receiver for powering the surgical power consumer.
Disposable components for reusable physiological sensor
A sensor cartridge according to embodiments of the disclosure is capable of being used with a non-invasive physiological sensor. Certain embodiments of the sensor cartridge protect the sensor from damage, such as damage due to repeated use, reduce the need for sensor sanitization, or both. Further, embodiments of the sensor cartridge are positionable on the user before insertion in the sensor and allow for improved alignment of the treatment site with the sensor. In addition, the sensor cartridge of certain embodiments of the disclosure can be configured to allow a single sensor to comfortably accommodate treatment sites of various sizes such as for both adult and pediatric applications.

Surgical robot platform
A medical robot system, including a robot coupled to an effectuator element with the robot configured for controlled movement and positioning. The system may include a transmitter configured to emit one or more signals, and the transmitter is coupled to an instrument coupled to the effectuator element. The system may further include a motor assembly coupled to the robot and a plurality of receivers configured to receive the one or more signals emitted by the transmitter. A control unit is coupled to the motor assembly and the plurality of receivers, and the control unit is configured to supply one or more instruction signals to the motor assembly. The instruction signals can be configured to cause the motor assembly to selectively move the effectuator element and is further configured to (i) calculate a position of the at least one transmitter by analysis of the signals received by the plurality of receivers; (ii) display the position of the at least one transmitter with respect to the body of the patient; and (iii) selectively control actuation of the motor assembly in response to the signals received by the plurality of receivers.

Control device, control method, and microscope device for operation
To make it possible to improve user convenience, provided is a control device including: a control unit configured to control a position and an attitude of a microscope unit by driving an arm unit that supports the microscope unit on the basis of a captured image of an operating site photographed by the microscope unit during an operation so that a position and attitude condition set before the operation is satisfied. The position and attitude condition is a condition that prescribes a position and an attitude of the microscope unit with respect to the operating site to obtain a desired captured image corresponding to the position and attitude condition.

DRESSING
A dressing includes a drape, a pressure-sensitive acrylic-based adhesive on a skin-facing surface of the drape, an island of absorbent material, a silicone gel backing film, and a silicone gel on the silicone gel backing film. The drape is a thin film capable of maintaining a negative pressure underneath the drape upon application of a vacuum. The island of absorbent material has a smaller area than the drape and is applied onto the skin-facing surface of the drape. The silicone gel backing film has a frame shape and a smaller footprint than the drape and a larger footprint than the island of absorbent material.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AN AIRWAY ISOLATION DRAPE APPARATUS
Various embodiments for an airway isolation apparatus having a wire frame that is operable for deploying an isolation drape over a subjects head to protect healthcare and other workers from contagious or otherwise harmful agents are disclosed herein. The drape frame may include a frame base. A frame channel may extend from the frame base and a frame wire may extend through the frame channel A frame opening may be defined by the frame base and the frame channel of the drape frame. A drape may be disposed in the frame opening. Accordingly, the drape frame may be deployed in place over the chest and head of a subject. The drape may cover the subjects head to isolate the mouth and nose of the subject preparatory to accessing these airways for intubation or other procedure.
