摘要:
A robotic surgical system includes an instrument driver and an instrument assembly operatively coupled to the instrument driver such that mechanisms of the instrument driver operate or control movement, operation, or both, of components of the instrument assembly. The instrument assembly components include an elongate flexible guide instrument and an image capture device, wherein the image capture device is configured to capture images of a forward-oriented field of view. The system further comprises a controller operatively coupled to the instrument driver and configured to operate the instrument driver mechanisms in a manner so as to control advancement of the instrument assembly toward a target along a trajectory that maintains the target in the forward-oriented field of view of the image capture device.

A robotic surgical system includes an instrument driver and an instrument assembly operatively coupled to the instrument driver such that mechanisms of the instrument driver operate or control movement, operation, or both, of components of the instrument assembly. The instrument assembly components include an elongate flexible guide instrument, an optical light source, a camera and a working tool, wherein the light source, camera, and working tool are carried in one or more lumens of the guide instrument. An operator control station is operatively coupled to the instrument driver via a remote communication link. The instrument assembly further includes an inflatable visualization balloon carried on a distal end portion of the guide instrument, the light source and camera having distal ends located within an interior of the balloon, the balloon comprising a lumen extending from the guide instrument to a distal facing wall of the balloon, such that the working instrument may extend from a respective lumen of the guide instrument through the balloon lumen to contact body tissue when the distal end of the guide instrument is positioned in an interior body region.

Systems are described herein that improve control of a shapeable or steerable instrument using shape data. Additional systems use such shape data for improved mapping or adjusting models of the instrument. Such systems include robotic medical systems for controlling a shapeable instrument within an anatomical region having a controller, one or more actuators, and a localization system for guiding one or more shapeable instruments.

A method for performing an interventional procedure using a robotically controlled guide instrument coupled to an instrument drive assembly, includes manipulating a user interface of a master controller to actuate the drive assembly and thereby position a distal portion of the guide instrument at an interventional procedure site in a patient's body; and providing on a first display a graphically rendered image of the distal portion of the guide instrument overlaying an image of the interventional procedure site, wherein manipulation of the user interface causes a corresponding movement of the instrument model relative to the image in the first display.

A robotically controlled guide instrument system, comprising an elongate flexible guide instrument; a drive assembly coupled to a proximal portion of the guide instrument and configured to maneuver a distal portion of the guide instrument; a master controller including a user interface that may be manipulated to actuate the drive assembly and thereby maneuver the distal portion the guide instrument; and a closure device detachably coupled to a delivery member carried by the guide instrument, the guide instrument maneuverable to position the closure device proximate an opening of a left atrial appendage of a person's heart such that the prosthesis may be detached from the delivery member and implanted to substantially close off the left atrial appendage.
摘要:
A shape cutting system for cutting a material having a surface. The shape cutting system includes a cutting unit and at least one template. The cutting unit includes a frame, a blade adjustment assembly and a blade assembly are coupled to the frame. The blade assembly is positioned at least partially within the frame such that a longitudinal axis of the blade assembly is substantially perpendicular to a lower support surface of the frame. The blade assembly includes a blade retainer and a blade connected to the retainer. The blade adjustment assembly is positioned on a neck which is rotatable relative to the frame. A user is capable of accessing and replacing the blade assembly without altering the position of the blade adjustment assembly relative to the neck.

A collapsible housing including a first housing having a magnetic member (108) carried by the first housing (110). A slide enabling member (104) is rotatably coupled to the first housing by a hinge (102), the slide enabling member rotating about a rotation axis (106) of the hinge and, the slide enabling member extending radially from the rotation axis. A second housing (120) is slideably coupled to the slide enabling member such that the second housing slides along the slide enabling member. The housing further includes an engaging member (112) carried by the second housing and selectively engageable to the magnetic member. A first urging member (118) is coupled between the first housing and the slide enabling member, the first urging member urging the slide enabling member to rotate about the rotation axis relative to the first housing. A second urging member (122) is coupled between the second housing and the slide enabling member, the urging member urging the second housing to laterally slide along the slide enabling member in a radial direction relative to the rotation axis.
