Method for adaptive control schemes for surgical network control and interaction
A method for adaptive control of surgical network control and interaction is disclosed. The surgical network includes a surgical feedback system. The surgical feedback system includes a surgical instrument, a data source, and a surgical hub configured to communicably couple to the data source and the surgical instrument. The surgical hub includes a control circuit. The method includes receiving, by the control circuit, information related to devices communicatively coupled to the surgical network; and adaptively controlling, by the control circuit, the surgical network based on the received information.
1. A system for validating surgical data, the system comprising:
a plurality of network devices communicatively coupled to a server, the plurality of network devices configured to generate surgical data; and
a surgical instrument communicatively coupled to the server, the surgical instrument comprising an end effector;
wherein the server is configured to validate surgical data received from the plurality of network devices based on data integrity, data authenticity, or a combination thereof; and
wherein the surgical instrument is configured to receive instructions from the server to adaptively control a firing speed based on the validated data.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the server is configured to validate the surgical data based on data integrity by comparing the surgical data to a dataset known to be valid.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the server is configured to validate the surgical data based on data integrity by determining that the surgical data does not relate to an individualized error of one of the plurality of the network devices.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the server is configured to validate the surgical data based on data authenticity by identifying a source of the surgical data.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the validated data comprises data related to a plurality of events occurring during a surgical procedure, and wherein the instructions to adaptively control the firing speed are based on a weighted effect of each of the plurality of events.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the validated data comprises data related to previous uses of the surgical instrument by a user.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions to adaptively control the firing speed comprise instructions to adjust the firing speed based on a predefined adjustment limit.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the predefined adjustment limit is based on a maximum number of adjustments allowed during a procedure, a maximum allowable firing speed, a minimum allowable firing speed, a user preference, a user experience level, or a combination thereof.
9. The system of claim 7 , further comprising a graphical user interface configured to allow a user to select the predefined adjustment limit.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the surgical instrument is configured to allow a user to override the instructions to adaptively control the firing speed.
11. A system, comprising:
a plurality of network devices communicatively coupled to a server, the plurality of network devices configured to generate surgical data; and
a surgical instrument communicatively coupled to the server, the surgical instrument comprising an end effector;
wherein the server is configured to validate surgical data received from the plurality of network devices based on data integrity, data authenticity, or a combination thereof; and
wherein the surgical instrument is configured to receive instructions from the server to adaptively control a tissue treatment parameter of the end effector based on the validated data.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the server is configured to validate the surgical data based on data integrity by comparing the surgical data to a dataset known to be valid.
13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the server is configured to validate the surgical data based on data integrity by determining that the surgical data does not relate to an individualized error of one of the plurality of the network devices.
14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the server is configured to validate the surgical data based on data authenticity by identifying a source of the surgical data.
15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the validated data comprises data related to a plurality of events occurring during a surgical procedure, and wherein the instructions to adaptively control the tissue treatment parameter are based on a weighted effect of each of the plurality of events.
16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the validated data comprises data related to previous uses of the surgical instrument by a user.
17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the instructions to adaptively control the tissue treatment parameter comprise instructions to adjust the tissue treatment parameter based on a predefined adjustment limit.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the predefined adjustment limit is based on a maximum number of adjustments allowed during a procedure, an allowable operating range of the tissue treatment parameter, a user preference, a user experience level, or a combination thereof.
19. The system of claim 17 , further comprising a graphical user interface configured to allow a user to select the predefined adjustment limit.
20. The system of claim 11 , wherein the surgical instrument is configured to allow a user to override the instructions to adaptively control the tissue treatment parameter.
