ROBOTIC NAVIGATION OF ROBOTIC SURGICAL SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240016553 titled 'ROBOTIC NAVIGATION OF ROBOTIC SURGICAL SYSTEMS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application relates to robotic surgical systems that have built-in navigation capability for tracking patient position and guiding surgical instruments during a surgical procedure. This eliminates the need for a separate navigation system. Robotic navigation of surgical instruments allows for easy registration and tracking of the operative volume. The systems, apparatus, and methods described in the patent application allow for intra-operative re-registration, model updates, and operative volume adjustments with minimal disruption to the surgical workflow. Surgeons can be provided with navigational assistance by displaying a surgical instrument's position relative to a patient's anatomy. By revising pre-operatively defined data, such as operative volumes and patient-robot orientation relationships, a higher degree of precision and lower risk of complications and medical errors can be achieved.

  • Robotic surgical systems with built-in navigation capability for patient position tracking and surgical instrument guidance during a surgical procedure.
  • Eliminates the need for a separate navigation system.
  • Robotic navigation allows for easy registration and tracking of the operative volume.
  • Intra-operative re-registration, model updates, and operative volume adjustments can be performed with minimal disruption to the surgical workflow.
  • Navigational assistance can be provided to surgeons by displaying a surgical instrument's position relative to a patient's anatomy.
  • Pre-operatively defined data can be revised for higher precision and lower risk of complications and medical errors.

Potential Applications

  • Robotic surgical systems with built-in navigation capability can be used in various surgical procedures, such as minimally invasive surgeries, orthopedic surgeries, and neurosurgeries.
  • This technology can be applied in both hospital and outpatient settings, allowing for more efficient and precise surgical procedures.
  • It can be used in training and education, providing surgeons with real-time guidance and feedback during surgical simulations.

Problems Solved

  • The need for a separate navigation system is eliminated, reducing the complexity and cost of surgical procedures.
  • Intra-operative re-registration and model updates allow for more accurate tracking of the operative volume, reducing the risk of complications and medical errors.
  • Navigational assistance provided to surgeons improves precision and reduces the risk of damaging critical anatomical structures.

Benefits

  • Improved surgical precision and accuracy.
  • Reduced risk of complications and medical errors.
  • Enhanced efficiency and workflow in surgical procedures.
  • Real-time guidance and feedback for surgeons during surgical simulations.
  • Cost savings by eliminating the need for a separate navigation system.


Original Abstract Submitted

in certain embodiments, the systems, apparatus, and methods disclosed herein relate to robotic surgical systems with built-in navigation capability for patient position tracking and surgical instrument guidance during a surgical procedure, without the need for a separate navigation system. robotic based navigation of surgical instruments during surgical procedures allows for easy registration and operative volume identification and tracking. the systems, apparatus, and methods herein allow re-registration, model updates, and operative volumes to be performed intra-operatively with minimal disruption to the surgical workflow. in certain embodiments, navigational assistance can be provided to a surgeon by displaying a surgical instrument's position relative to a patient's anatomy. additionally, by revising pre-operatively defined data such as operative volumes, patient-robot orientation relationships, and anatomical models of the patient, a higher degree of precision and lower risk of complications and serious medical error can be achieved.
