The present invention provides a system for managing occlusions during phacoemulsification surgery. More specifically, the present invention provides a user of a surgical console an alert when a partial or full occlusion of a surgical tool causes the vacuum pressure to become greater than a predetermined pressure threshold setting and automatically reduces the vacuum pressure when the predetermined pressure threshold setting is exceeded.

Advanced occlusion management methods for a phacoemulsification system

The disclosed apparatus, system and method may include at least a phacoemulsification surgical console having a customizable non-linear custom phacoemulsification mode. The apparatus, system and method may include an ultrasonic delivery tip; a foot pedal; and non-transitory computing code resident on a computing memory associated with a computing processor which, when executed by the processor, causes to be executed the steps of: receiving a percentage actuation of the foot pedal; calculating, including from a non-linear algorithm, a percentage actuation for the ultrasonic delivery tip corresponded to the received percentage foot pedal actuation; and dictating the calculated percentage actuation for the ultrasonic delivery tip actuation to the ultrasonic delivery tip.

A Phacoemulsification surgical system provides a live video feed from a camera that is attached to a surgical microscope. The live video feed is shown as part of a graphical user interface (GUI) of phacoemulsification surgical console either in a picture in picture or a full-screen format. The video feed is either static or displayed on-demand as needed during a surgical procedure. The displaying of a live video feed directly on the phacoemulsification surgical console allows for surgical assistants to interact with the live video feed and phacoemulsification surgical system parameters and/or GUI controls without having to refocus on an external object between near and far distances.

A surgical cassette/pack usage tracker for tracking a number of uses for a cassette/pack to prohibit uses from exceeding a maximum amount. A usage tracker system engages with or scans a portion of the cassette/pack to determine the number of uses. In illustrative embodiments, an implement interacts with a film in the cassette after each use and determines remaining uses for the cassette/pack. In other embodiments, an implement interacts with a rotatable wheel that rotates with each use, the implement configured to permit the tracker to identify the number uses and determine remaining uses for the cassette/pack. When a maximum usage amount is reached, the tracker system may issue a warning, eject or reject the cassette/pack and/or disable the surgical device from further use.

Remote control

Systems, methods, and computer readable storage medium for providing a genericized medical device architecture common to a plurality of medical devices are disclosed. The architecture may comprise at least one diagnostics module associated with at least one of the plurality of medical devices, wherein the at least one diagnostics module is configured to monitor an operational status of the at least one medical device. At least one hardware abstraction layer may be associated with at least one of the plurality of medical devices, and may be configured to provide abstracted access to hardware of the at least one medical device.

System and method for providing a genericized medical device architecture

A computer-based surgery support system and method for obtaining information of surgical procedures from networked equipment in an operating room, storing the retrieved information in a database, receiving a request for the stored information from a user terminal, and providing the stored information in accordance with the received request. The networked equipment may be configured for use in cataract surgical procedures, such as a phacoemulsion system.
