Application: Surgical system with training or assist functions (Patent ID: US20240115333A1)
The patent filed by Intuitive Surgical Inc. describes systems, methods, and software instructions for supporting a teleoperated surgical system (TSS). The system involves receiving a surgical input, autonomously determining the current stage of the surgical procedure, and providing context-relevant assistance to a surgeon console of the TSS that is synchronized with the surgical procedure. This assistance may include adjusting control settings to achieve a specific viewpoint in a virtual surgical environment.
The claims of the patent detail a system with processors that provide context-relevant assistance synchronized with the surgical procedure. This assistance includes adjusting control settings, queueing video segments demonstrating specific stages of the procedure, and offering surgical technique advice. The system can determine the current stage of the procedure based on surgical input and may involve trained neural networks for analysis. Additionally, the system can initiate stage-specific simulations within the virtual surgical environment in response to a call for assistance, providing scenario-specific surgical techniques from an automated expert system. Overall, the patent aims to enhance surgical procedures by offering timely and relevant support to surgeons during teleoperated surgeries.
