Abstract: An inventory system configured for reducing variability in detecting and counting surgical items includes an RFID tag affixed to a surgical item, a signal generator configured to generate an energizing signal for the RFID tag, an antenna operably coupled to the signal generator, a sensor configured to generate a signal indicative of a spatial parameter of the antenna when scanning for the RFID tag, a processor, and a memory. The RFID tag is configured to transmit a return signal when energized. The antenna is configured to receive the return signal transmitted by the RFID tag. The memory includes instructions stored thereon, which when executed by the processor cause the system to scan for the RFID tag by the antenna, sense the signal over a period of time, and provide an indication that the spatial parameter of the antenna over time meets a predetermined rule.

Abstract: A robotic surgical instrument includes a housing having a shaft extending therefrom configured to receive a first end effector including jaw members moveable between a fully open position wherein the jaw members are spaced a maximum distance relative to one another and a closed position wherein a closure pressure between the jaw members is within a predetermined range. A drive rod actuates the first end effector upon translation thereof. The housing includes a spring compression assembly having proximal and distal hubs with the compression spring disposed therebetween. A jaw drive input rotates a drive gear to translate the distal hub relative to the proximal hub to compress the compression spring and actuate the end effector. Once the jaw members are fully open, the jaw drive input rotates a preset number of degrees to compress the compression spring and approximate the jaw members to a closure pressure within the predetermined range.

Abstract: A method for object detection in endoscopy images includes capturing an image of an object, by an imaging device, the image including a first light and a second light. The object includes an infrared (IR) marking. The method further includes accessing the image, performing real time image recognition on the image to detect the IR marking, performing real time image recognition on the image to detect the object and classify the object, based on the IR marking, generating an augmented image based on removing the IR marking from the image, and displaying the augmented image on a display.

Abstract: A method of controlling a tool of a surgical robot with a processing unit such that the tool follows input of the input handle of a user console includes receiving movement of the input handle in a master frame of the user console, translating the movement of the input handle in the master frame to movement of the tool in a camera frame of a camera providing real-time images of a surgical site, translating the movement of the tool in the camera frame to movement of the tool in a world frame defined in a surgical theater, translating the movement of the tool in the world frame to movement of the tool in a tool frame which is defined by an arm supporting the tool, and transmitting control commands to a motor controlling the tool such that the tool follows movement of the input handle.

Abstract: A surgical device includes an outer member, an inner member, and at least one locking element. The inner member is at least partially supported within the outer member. The at least one locking element is configured in a first arrangement of the surgical device to lock the inner member in a first position and configured in a second arrangement of the surgical device to unlock the inner member from the first position. The at least one locking element is configured to change from the first arrangement to the second arrangement upon coupling the inner member in an operational arrangement to a hand piece.

Abstract: A robotic surgical system includes a robot system, a user interface, a hand detection system, and a processing unit. The robot system includes a tool coupled to an arm. The user interface includes a handle assembly including a body portion having a proximal end portion, and a first actuator movable between open and closed positions. The hand detection system includes a first sensor disposed within the first actuator for detecting finger presence on the first actuator, a second sensor disposed on the proximal end portion for detecting palm presence about the proximal end portion, and an encoder disposed within the body portion for detecting position of the first actuator relative to the body portion. The processing unit is electrically coupled to the first, second, and third sensors for receiving and processing data from the first, second, and third sensors.

Abstract: An ultrasonic surgical system includes an ultrasonic instrument configured to seal a vessel and including an ultrasonically-activatable blade and a jaw member pivotably movable with respect to the blade, an endoscope configured to capture video data of a surgical site including the blade and the jaw member, and a processor connected to the endoscope. The processor is configured to process the video data to determine an angle between the blade and the jaw member, determine a desired energy level based on the angle, and provide the desired ultrasonic energy as a feedback to the ultrasonic instrument. The ultrasonic instrument performs a closed-loop control to maintain the desired ultrasonic energy.
