Abstract
An applied usage count reader and display device is disclosed. The applied usage count reader and display device is configured to read information embedded in memory of a limited-use medical device used by a surgical or robotic system and determine a remaining number of uses available for the limited-use medical device. The applied usage count reader and display device removes the human element from the determination of useful life left on the limited-use medical device by allowing staff or other authorized users to test the useful life and read the memory on the device at any time when away from the surgical system or operating room.
