FIELD: medical equipment.SUBSTANCE: method for control of hemorrhage with a tourniquet in case of injuries to the extremities of the arms and legs and in case of complete abruption of one of them. The tourniquet contains a plastic tie with slots for fixation and the head of the fixing device. The tourniquet has a nichrome wire, designed with the ability to cut the plastic tie, freeing the limb for surgical procedures. The tourniquet includes a green square handle for cutting the plastic tie with nichrome wire. The tourniquet contains a red ring-shaped handle sealed with adhesive tape for tightening the tourniquet. The tourniquet has a fabric cover for sewing onto the inside of clothing or over underwear. The tourniquet includes a Velcro fastener for closure from external influences and a plate attached to the Velcro fastener for marking the start time of the tourniquet use. In the method for control of hemorrhage, the red ring-shaped handle is pulled to tighten the tourniquet until the bleeding from the limb stops and the start time of using the tourniquet is marked on the plate.EFFECT: rapid stop of bleeding with a tourniquet.3 cl, 5 dwg

An intraocular lens (IOL) (100) specifically designed for posterior chamber sutureless scleral fixation comprises an optic plate (11) and two haptics (12) extending from opposite sides of the optic plate (11), each haptic (12) comprising at its extremity a pinhead-shaped anchoring element (13) for anchoring to the sclera. This eliminates the need for scleral flaps, thereby simplifying the surgical procedure and reducing operative time while enhancing postoperative outcomes.

An orthopaedic surgical procedure includes monitoring output from a number of onboard sensors of a bone saw to detect the presence of blade deflection during advancement of the saw's oscillating blade into the bone of a patient. Operation of the bone saw is adjusted based on the amount of detected blade deflection. A robot-assisted orthopaedic surgical system is also disclosed.

Patient biomarkers may be monitored before, during, and / or after thoracic surgery to predict complications, detect complications, track recovery, and / or make pre-, in- and / or post-surgery recommendations to avoid predicted complications and / or mitigate detected complications. Complications (e.g., prolonged air leak or esophageal stricture) may be predicted based on patient parameters and / or biomarker measurements. Complications may be predicted or detected based on biomarker measurements compared to thresholds associated with a biomarker (e.g., developed from baselines) generated based on patient parameters, pre- and / or in-surgery biomarker measurements, and / or surgical details (e.g., decrease in long capacity). Recovery milestones may be tracked based on biomarker measurements compared to predicted biomarker measurements for recovery stages. A recommendation (e.g., to avoid a predicted complication and / or mitigate a detected complication) may be a patient-specific selection and / or modification of more of: surgical preparation, in-surgery procedures, surgical instrument selection, surgical and / or post-surgical instrument settings, post-surgery procedures, in-surgery and / or post-surgery monitoring, etc.

Systems and methods for enhancing surgical outcomes by providing generators having optimal RF output for sealing, fusing and / or cutting tissue or vessels under all dynamic conditions are described. Examples of dynamic conditions may include varying tissue impedance load due to electrosurgical operations or tissue affects, any operational conditions and commands determined by the surgeon, surgical procedure and / or device script. This is achieved by implementing a digital closed-loop control system within the electrosurgical generator to regulate voltage, current, and power of the RF output. The digital closed-loop control system may include an RF amplifier for generating RF energy, a feedback system for constantly monitoring the electrical characteristics, e.g., voltage, current, and power, of the supplied RF energy to a connectable electrosurgical instrument and a microcontroller for processing measurement data from the feedback system and adjusting the output of the RF amplifier to meet a desired regulation target under any varying conditions.

Methods, non-transitory computer-readable media, and arthroscopic video segmentation devices and systems are disclosed that facilitate improved automated segmentation analysis of video of arthroscopic procedures. With this technology, a machine learning model can be used to automatically segment a video feed of an arthroscopic surgery, and one or more tags related to the segment can be associated with the video feed. The generated video can be output in real-time to provide segmented information related to the surgical procedure, or can be saved with one or more segments tagged for playback for training or informational purposes.

Monitoring devices monitor physiological parameters of a patient undergoing surgery. The physiological parameters describe a physiological condition of the patient. A processor matches the physiological parameters to stored surgical data associated with adverse surgical events associated with surgical procedures matching the surgery. The processor determines a predicted time at which the physiological condition of the patient will meet a threshold physiological condition associated with the adverse surgical event based on a rate of change of the physiological parameters. Responsive to determining the predicted time, the processor transmits a first alert to robotic surgical controls to adjust the surgery prior to the predicted time. The processor determines that the physiological condition of the patient has met the threshold physiological condition. The processor transmits a second alert to the robotic surgical controls to terminate the surgery.

An orthopaedic surgical procedure includes monitoring output from a number of onboard sensors of a bone saw to detect the presence of blade deflection during advancement of the saw’s oscillating blade into the bone of a patient. Operation of the bone saw is adjusted based on the amount of detected blade deflection. A robot-assisted orthopaedic surgical system is also disclosed.

This application relates to a measurement system, measurement method, electronic device, and non-transitory machine-readable storage medium for expressing the morphological development characteristics of the orbital bone wall. This measurement system can automatically identify the orbital contour, superior rectus muscle contour, inferior rectus muscle contour, medial rectus muscle contour, and lateral rectus muscle contour, and output a ratio curve expressing the morphological development characteristics of the orbital bone wall, providing a more valuable reference for the diagnosis of congenital orbital variations, analysis of orbital decompression surgery procedures, and selection of precision.

Systems and methods are provided for performing tensionable knotless tissue repairs. A locking ferrule that includes a one-way locking mechanism may be utilized as part of the tensionable knotless tissue repairs for tensioning and locking one or more strands of suture. The one-way locking mechanism may be established by one or more locking barbs of the locking ferrule. The locking ferrule may further include an eyelet or a through-bore for accommodating the suture.

This article presents a technique for transmitting information between an implantable medical device and an external device via a far-field wireless link during a surgical procedure. The method includes performing one or more intraoperative measurements and transmitting data representing the one or more measurements (intraoperative measurement data) from the implantable medical device to the external device via a far-field communication link.
