Systems and methods for improving cardiac ablation procedures
A plurality of systems and methods for improving a cardiac ablation procedure are disclosed. The systems and methods include a cloud server that includes a database containing information about previously performed cardiac ablations, a local server that is communicatively coupled to the cloud server via first network, and a surgical system that is communicatively coupled to the local server via second network. The cloud server is configured to receive, via the local server, electrical and anatomical data of a heart of a patient from the surgical system, perform a comparison of the electrical and anatomical data of the heart to the database information, generate a surgical treatment plan for the heart based on the comparison, wherein the surgical treatment plan includes a grid of the heart, and transmit, via the local server, the surgical treatment plan to the surgical system.
1. A system for training a surgeon to perform a cardiac ablation, the system comprising:
a cloud server that includes a database information related to cardiac ablations performed by surgeons with known treatment outcomes; and
an AR/VR system that is communicatively coupled to the cloud server via a first network, wherein the AR/VR system is configured to:
receive a plurality of parameters configured for a training ablation related to a patient, the plurality of parameters configured from at least one of the patient medical records or electrical and anatomical data of the patient,
receive electrical and anatomical data for a virtual patient from the cloud server, wherein the electrical and anatomical data for the virtual patent is determined by comparing the plurality of parameters to the database information and selecting electrical and anatomical data for the virtual patient that meets the comparison and provides the best treatment outcomes of the compared database information,
create a virtual simulation of a heart of the patient based on the electrical and anatomical data for the virtual patient,
measure performance of a trainee performing a cardiac ablation procedure on the created virtual simulation by comparing the measured performance with a performance of the surgeon that performed the ablation related to the selected electrical and anatomical data, and
score the performance of the trainee.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the cloud server receives the electrical and anatomical data of the heart of the cardiac ablations while a cardiac ablation procedure is performed.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein cardiac ablations include a plurality of ablations, wherein the cloud server receives the electrical and anatomical data of the heart of the patient after each ablation.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the cloud server is further configured to: receive additional electrical and anatomical data of the heart after the ablation procedure is performed, and generate an ablation score based on the additional electrical and anatomical data.
5. A method for training a surgeon to perform a cardiac ablation, the method comprising:
receiving a plurality of parameters configured for a training ablation related to a patient, the plurality of parameters configured from at least one of the patient medical records or electrical and anatomical data of the patient;
receiving electrical and anatomical data for a virtual patient from a cloud server, wherein the electrical and anatomical data for the virtual patent is determined by comparing the plurality of parameters to database information related to cardiac ablations performed by surgeons with known treatment outcomes and selecting electrical and anatomical data for the virtual patient that meets the comparison and provides the best treatment outcomes of the compared database information;
creating a virtual simulation of a heart of the patient based on the electrical and anatomical data for the virtual patient;
measuring performance of a trainee performing a cardiac ablation procedure on the created virtual simulation by comparing the measured performance with a performance of the surgeon that performed the ablation related to the selected electrical and anatomical data; and
scoring the performance of the trainee.
6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising receiving the electrical and anatomical data of the heart of the cardiac ablations while a cardiac ablation procedure is performed.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein when the cardiac ablations include a plurality of ablations, the method further comprises receiving the electrical and anatomical data of the heart of the patient after each ablation.
8. The method of claim 5 , further comprising receiving additional electrical and anatomical data of the heart after the ablation procedure is performed.
9. The method of claim 5 , further comprising generating an ablation score based on additional electrical and anatomical data.
