Abstract: Method of actuating an end effector of a surgical device employ a drive shaft to actuate the end effector. A method of actuating an end effector of a surgical device includes rotating a main shaft relative to the proximal chassis. An end effector base of the end effector is supported by a wrist mechanism coupled between the end effector base and the main shaft. The end effector base is reoriented relative to the main shaft by operating a wrist articulation mechanism. A drive shaft is supported for rotation within a lumen of the main shaft. A feature of the end effector is actuated by rotating an input shaft of the end effector by rotating the drive shaft relative to the main shaft.

Abstract: A circular stapling device (10) includes a handle assembly (12) having an indicator assembly (80) that includes a clicker assembly (82) and a biasing member (84). The clicker assembly (82) provides an audible and/or tactile signal to a clinician when an anvil assembly (20) of the stapling device (10) is moved from a clamped position towards an open position a distance sufficient to allow an anvil head (56) of the anvil assembly (20) to pivot in relation to a reload assembly (18) of the stapling device (10) from an operative position to a tilted reduced profile position. The signal is provided to the clinician while the anvil assembly (20) is locked onto the stapling device (10).

Abstract: Devices and systems are provided for controlling movement of a working end of a surgical device by means of a robotic system. In one embodiment, systems and devices are provided for moving an end effector on a distal end of a surgical fastening device. Movement can include rotational movement of the end effector about an axis of the shaft, articulation of the end effector relative to the shaft, and actuation of an end effector, e.g., closing, firing, and/or cutting.

Abstract: A staple having a crown, a deformable leg extending from the crown, and a spring extending from the crown configured to compress tissue between the spring and the deformable member. Owing to the flexibility of the spring, the staple can accommodate a wide range of tissue thicknesses while still compressing the tissue captured therein. As a result, a single staple design can be used in a wide variety of surgical procedures thereby reducing the amount of staple designs that must be provided to the surgeon. In at least one embodiment, the staple includes a crushable member. This crushable member can include a plastically deformable first portion and an elastically deformable second portion. The present invention can also include, in various embodiments, a crown, a first deformable member extending from the crown, and means for compressing the tissue against the first deformable member.
