Apparatus, system and method of providing custom vacuum and aspiration in a surgical system
An apparatus, system and method for providing a may include at least a phacoemulsification surgical console having a customizable non-linear custom aspiration mode. The console may include at least an aspirator; a foot pedal; and a 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 aspirator corresponded to the received percentage foot pedal actuation; and dictating the calculated percentage aspirator actuation to the aspirator.
1 . A phacoemulsification surgical console having a customizable non-linear aspiration mode, comprising:
an aspirator comprising at least one of a positive displacement pump and a vacuum-based pump;
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 the execution of the steps of:
receiving by the processor a percentage actuation of the foot pedal;
calculating, including from a non-linear algorithm, based on user definable parameters to customize a percentage actuation for the aspirator corresponding to the received percentage foot pedal actuation; and
dictating the calculated percentage actuation to the aspirator to control an aspiration level,
wherein:
the calculating from the non-linear algorithm, comprises a start segment calculation, a performance-segment calculation, and a final-segment calculation, wherein
the start segment calculation obeys:
Y =( Y 1/ X 1)* X
wherein Y is the calculated percentage aspirator actuation, X is the percentage foot pedal actuation, X1 is a percentage foot pedal set point, and Y1 is an aspiration percentage set point corresponded to X1.
2 . The phacoemulsification console of claim 1 , wherein the executed steps further comprise assessing, based on the received foot pedal actuation percentage, a desired operational zone.
3 . The phacoemulsification console of claim 2 , wherein, based on the assessed operational zone being a first operational zone, the dictating the calculated percentage actuation to the aspirator comprises dictating the calculated percentage actuation from the non-linear algorithm.
4 . The phacoemulsification console of claim 3 , wherein, based on the assessed operational zone being a second operational zone, the dictating the calculated percentage actuation comprises dictating a linear aspirator percentage actuation.
5 . The phacoemulsification console of claim 4 , wherein, based on the assessed operational zone being a third operational zone, the dictating the calculated percentage actuation comprises dictating a zero aspirator percentage actuation.
6 . The phacoemulsification console of claim 1 , wherein the performance segment calculation obeys:
Y =[1/(100− X 1)]*[(100− Y 1)* X+ 100*( Y 1− X 1)].
