SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR A SITUATION AND AWARENESS-BASED INTELLIGENT SURGICAL SYSTEM

摘要

A computer-based method includes receiving a video feed of a surgical procedure; identifying a current step of the surgical procedure using the video feed and an electronic surgical database; and determining an expected next step of the surgical procedure. A similarity of the expected next step with the actual next step of the surgical procedure may be determined, and an alert and/or surgical guidance may be provided based on the similarity (or lack of). A system for surgical-guidance is disclosed, the system having a storage unit with an electronic surgical database; a surgery image identification unit for analyzing a video feed to determine characteristic data; a mapping unit for matching a database record based on the characteristic data; an alignment unit for mapping matched database records with a stored surgical procedure; and a surgery prediction unit for determining a predicted next surgical step.

主权项

1. A computer-based method for surgical guidance, the method comprising:
receiving a video feed of a surgical procedure, the video feed comprising a plurality of image frames; identifying a current step of the surgical procedure based on one or more image frames of the video feed and using an electronic surgical database; and determining an expected next step of the contemporaneous surgical procedure.
