An end effector is removably connected to a robot arm under sterile conditions with an arm mount module configured to be connected to the robot arm, and an arm drape module configured to be removably connected to the arm mount module by a first locking mechanism. A third module may be configured to be removably connected to the arm drape module by a second locking mechanism. A sterile hand drape module may be configured to be removably connected to the arm drape module by the second locking mechanism; and a hand mount module may be configured to be removably connected to the hand drape module by a third locking mechanism, and to be connected to the end effector or the hand mount module is the end effector itself. A transmission pathway for signals, electrical energy, or mechanical energy is provided between the robot arm and the end effector.

System for connecting end effectors to robot arms that operate under sterile conditions

Patient-adapted articular repair systems, including implants, instruments, and surgical plans, and methods of making and using such systems, are disclosed herein. In particular, various embodiments include methods of selecting and/or designing patient-adapted surgical repair systems using parameterized models and/or multibody simulations.

Kinematic and parameterized modeling for patient-adapted implants, tools, and surgical procedures

Disclosed are various advanced methods, devices, and systems for implants, tools and techniques that facilitate the surgical repair of a knee joint while allowing retention of more natural kinematics and preserving controlled rotation and translation of the repaired joint.

Advanced methods and techniques for designing knee implant components

Various embodiments of methods for obtaining kinematic information regarding a joint, including information regarding the joint in a weight-bearing position, are disclosed, as well as methods of designing implants, instruments, and surgical repair systems based on the kinematic information.
