    摘要: A computer-assisted surgery system comprises a calibrating instrument adapted to be applied to a pelvis in a known manner, and a surgical instrument. A computer-assisted processor unit operating a surgical assistance procedure and comprises at least one portable inertial sensor unit configured to be connected to the at least one calibrating instrument and the at least one surgical instrument, the portable inertial sensor unit outputting readings representative of its orientation. A geometrical relation data module provides a geometrical relation data between the orientation of the portable inertial sensor unit, of the calibrating instrument and of the surgical instrument. A coordinate system module sets a coordinate system of the pelvis in which an anterior-posterior axis of the pelvis is generally in a direction of gravity, and in which a medio-lateral axis of the pelvis is obtained from readings of the at least one portable inertial sensor unit on the calibrating instrument using the geometrical relation data therebetween. A tracking module tracks movements of the at least one surgical instrument relative to the coordinate system using readings from the inertial sensor unit on the surgical instrument using the geometrical relation data therebetween, and calculates navigation data for the movements, the navigation data relating the orientation of the surgical instrument to the orientation of the pelvis. An interface outputs the navigation data.

    摘要: A computer-assisted surgery system has inertial sensor unit connected to an instrument and producing readings representative of its orientation. A computer-assisted surgery processor unit has a coordinate system module for setting a pelvic coordinate system from readings of the inertial sensor unit when the instrument is in a given orientation relative to the pelvis, a tracking module for tracking an orientation of the instrument relative to the pelvic coordinate system during movements thereof and a geometrical relation data module for recording preoperatively a landmark orientation relative to the pelvic coordinate system and a distance when the at least one instrument has a first end abutted to a pelvic landmark and a second end abutted to a leg landmark, for recording after implant rejointing the medio-lateral orientation and the distance, and for calculating a leg length discrepancy and/or an offset, based on the distances and the medio-lateral orientations.

    摘要: A tibia cutting assembly includes a tibia cut guide with at least one cut slot. A guide rod has a guide holder mountable to the cut guide at a first end of the guide rod, and a second end of the guide rod is mountable non-invasively about a skin of a patient. The guide rod is extendable in length to displace the tibia cut guide and adjust a position thereof with respect to a tibia of the patient. The guide holder cooperates with the tibia cut guide to adjust an orientation of the tibia cut guide. A first inertial sensor is mountable to the guide holder and is displaceable therewith, and a second inertial sensor is mountable to the guide rod at the second end thereof.

    摘要: A computer-assisted surgery (CAS) system comprises a cup implanting device including a shaft having a tooling end and a handle end with a handle for being manipulated, the shaft having a longitudinal axis, the tooling end adapted to support a cup for being received in an acetabulum of a patient, and a rotation indicator having a visual guide representative of a device plane, wherein the device plane is in a known position and orientation relative to a center of the cup on the tooling end. A CAS processing unit includes at least one inertial sensor unit connected to the cup implanting device, the inertial sensor unit outputting three-axes readings and having a virtual preset orientation related to a reference axis of a pelvis of the patient, the virtual preset orientation being based on pre-operative imaging specific to the pelvis of the patient, the reference axis of the pelvis passing through a center of rotation of said acetabulum of the pelvis and through a reference landmark of the pelvis, wherein an instant three-axis orientation of the longitudinal axis of the cup implanting device is trigonometrically known relatively to the reference axis when the cup is in the acetabulum of the patient and the device plane passes through the reference landmark via the visual guide, the instant three-axis orientation used for calibrating the inertial sensor unit on the cup implanting device relative to the pelvis.
