A surgical device controlled by a control console includes a device body, an identification circuit in connection with the device body, and a communication interface. The communication interface is configured to communicatively connect the identification circuit to the control console. In response to receiving an energization signal from the control console via the communication interface, the identification circuit activates an identification signal at a fixed frequency for a predetermined period of time and communicates the identification signal to the control console via the communication interface.

Apparatus and method for tool accessory identification

An adaptive flow rate control system for a surgical device, whereby the control system includes one or more nonintrusive sensors configured to be positioned on an aspiration conduit extending downstream from a handheld surgical device to measure flow and reduce clogging within the aspiration conduit is disclosed. The nonintrusive sensor may provide data to a controller of a handheld surgical device system to enable it to control operation of the handheld surgical device based at least in part on the data from the adaptive flow rate control system to prevent clogging of the aspiration system. The adaptive flow rate control system may also include a clog tracking module and a clog prediction module. The adaptive flow rate control system may include a wireless communication system configured to communicate with other components of a surgical device system and may communicate with a external network and resources on the internet.

Surgical system with adaptive aspiration flow control

A sterilizable housing for a personal electronic device includes a base, a cover and a user interface. The base is configured for receiving the personal electronic device. The cover is selectively engageable to the base. Both the base and the cover are sterilizable. The user interface provides selective access to the personal electronic device, and is at least partially contiguous with a corresponding user interface of the personal electronic device.

Portable electronic device assembly having sterilizable housing

A fluid management system with a detection circuit for detecting whether an attached surgical device is operational. The fluid management system changes at least one operation mode when the surgical device is detected as being operational. The fluid management system may include inflow, outflow, or inflow/outflow capabilities, and monitors at least one signal characteristic of an AC power signal provided to the surgical device.
