摘要 |
A process and system are disclosed for downloading sensor data, stored in a memory device of a surgical cutting and fastening instrument (10), to an external or remote computer device (2420). The process may involve storing data from one or more sensors of a surgical cutting and fastening instrument in a memory device (2406) of a control unit (2400) of the surgical cutting and fastening instrument during a surgical procedure involving the surgical cutting and fastening instrument. Next, after the surgical procedure, a data link (2422) between the control unit and the remote computer device is established. Then, the sensor data can be downloaded from the control unit to the remote computer device. |
