摘要:
Illumination systems are described that can include one or more light sources, which can include LEDs, one or more lenses, and one or more optical fibers. A handheld, portable, and surgical intraocular illumination system is disclosed that is disposable, low-cost, and efficient. A surgeon can have direct control of turning the illuminator on and off and adjusting the intensity via a simple control ergonomically placed on the handpiece and/or voice activated control. A coupling is provided, such as through an endo-probe, which is coupled to the one or more light sources. A user input device can be included that is operable to transmit to a feedback controller a first signal based on a user-selected light intensity. The feedback controller can, in response to the first signal, transmit a second signal to the power source for altering the power provided by the power source to the illumination system.

Apparatus, systems, and devices are described that utilize an adjustable biological tissue cutting handpiece that is based on selectable settings. The biological tissue cutting handpiece includes a cutter tip that allows multiple duty cycles as well as multiple port configurations. For example, when working next to the retina, the port could be adjusted to be a smaller size, allowing delicate membrane dissection. When working near or in less sensitive tissue, e.g. the center of the eye, the port could be wide open. The port aperture size can be independent of cut speed, allowing a surgeon to work at high speed both next to the retina and away from the retina. High speeds have been shown to have increased tissue (e.g., vitreous) removal, e.g., in 25 and 23-gauge instruments. Duty cycle is not necessarily dependent on cut speed, allowing high cutter performance and varied flow characteristics.

摘要:
The present disclosure is directed to illumination techniques that include the use of one or more sets of Light Emitting Diodes or LEDs as light sources in a console/module system. The LED light sources can be utilized to produce a light beams with a specified/combination of intensity and spectrum. Of course, embodiments according to the present disclosure are not limited to one intensity/spectrum but multiple combinations of intensity and spectrum can be implemented. Such systems/methods can be implemented with various optical elements including filter, lenses, mirrors, and/or optical fibers. The system is controlled by voice activation, touch screen, footswitch or wireless communication. The LEDs might also be pulsed as a driving system. The optical fiber cable is tethered to the control.
摘要:
A surgical pack includes a platform having a plurality of recesses configured to function as a surgical tray. A plurality of surgical instruments are contained in a corresponding recess of the platform. The recess may have the shape of the surgical instrument that it is designed to receive. The recess may also include safety mechanisms to protect the tips of certain instruments and to lower the risk of injury caused by them. A packaging or covering holds the platform and the plurality of surgical instruments in a substantially sterile condition.
摘要:
A personal surgical center embodied as a general purpose computer (e.g. laptop) with wireless technology for monitoring the operation of an independent surgical center and/or handheld instruments. The computer tracks procedures in the operating room and instruments used during those procedures, and accounts for billing, supply management, and payment options. The monitoring of the instruments used during the surgery is conducted by the personal surgical center while actual control of the settings of those instruments is via the independent surgical center or via controls included in the instruments themselves. The monitored information is stored in a log file which is then transmitted to a hospital server for generating reports, inventory control, billing, and the like. Other information generated during the procedure (e.g. doctor notes) is also stored in the log file. The personal surgical center may also access the hospital server or local data storage device for retrieving a surgeon's specific surgery parameters, obtaining patient files, and the like.
摘要:
A sterile surgical tray includes structure for receiving a plurality of surgical instruments. The sterile surgical tray also may include electrical input and output connectors attached to tray.
摘要:
A biological tissue cutting and fluid aspiration system provides a plurality of surgical instruments operable independent of an external control console. In some embodiments, each surgical instrument may include all sensors and controls directly applicable to the surgical instrument, and may be used independently. In some embodiments, instruments communicate status information to each other, and adjust operating parameters based on the communications.
