Abstract

A surgical system is disclosed including an imaging device, a display, and a control system operably coupled to the imaging device and the display. The display is configured to show a livestream of a surgical field of a surgical procedure. The livestream is captured by the imaging device. The control system is configured to overlay, on the livestream, a first amount of information associated with the surgical procedure, detect an event configured to cause the first amount of information being overlaid to increase to a second amount of information being overlaid, compare the second amount of information to a distraction threshold, adjust the second amount of information to a third amount of information based on the comparison, and overlay, on the livestream, the third amount of information based on the second amount of information being adjusted. The third amount of information is less than the distraction threshold.

Claims (50)

1. A surgical system, comprising:

an imaging device;

a processor configured to:

obtain a livestream of a surgical field of a surgical procedure, wherein the livestream is captured by the imaging device;

overlay, on the livestream, a first amount of information associated with the surgical procedure;

detect an event configured to cause the first amount of information being overlaid to increase to a second amount of information being overlaid;

compare the second amount of information to a distraction threshold;

adjust the second amount of information to a third amount of information based on the comparison, wherein the third amount of information is less than the distraction threshold; and

overlay, on the livestream, the third amount of information based on the second amount of information being adjusted.

2. The surgical system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to adjust the second amount of information to the third amount of information based on the second amount of information reaching or exceeding the distraction threshold.

3. The surgical system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to overlay, on the livestream, the second amount of information based on the second amount of information being below the distraction threshold.

4. The surgical system of claim 1 , wherein the distraction threshold is based on a user input.

5. The surgical system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

send the livestream to a display, wherein the display comprises a viewable area, and

wherein distraction threshold corresponds to a percentage of the viewable area.

6. The surgical system of claim 1 , further comprising a situational awareness module operably coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is further configured to determine, by the situational awareness module, a step of the surgical procedure, and wherein adjusting the second amount of information to the third amount of information comprises removing information irrelevant to the step of surgical procedure being performed.

7. A surgical system, comprising:

an imaging device;

a situational awareness module; and

a processor operably coupled to the imaging device, and the situational awareness module, wherein the processor is configured to:

obtain a livestream of a surgical field of a surgical procedure, wherein the livestream is captured by the imaging device;

overlay, on the livestream, information associated with the surgical procedure;

determine, by the situational awareness module, a step of the surgical procedure; and

adjust the overlaid information according to the determined step of the surgical procedure, wherein adjusting the overlaid information comprises adjusting a position of a portion of the overlaid information on the livestream.

8. The surgical system of claim 7 , wherein adjusting the overlaid information comprises adjusting a size of a portion of the overlaid information on the livestream.

9. The surgical system of claim 7 , wherein adjusting the overlaid information comprises adjusting a weight of a portion of the overlaid information on the livestream.

10. The surgical system of claim 7 , wherein adjusting the overlaid information comprises removing overlaid information irrelevant to the step of the surgical procedure.

11. The surgical system of claim 7 , wherein adjusting the overlaid information comprises overlaying additional information associated with the step of the surgical procedure.

12. The surgical system of claim 7 , further comprising an auditory feedback module operably coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is further configured to:

determine, by the situational awareness module, a second step of the surgical procedure;

overlay, on the livestream, information associated with the second step of the surgical procedure; and

provide, by the auditory feedback module, an auditory tone based on the second step of the surgical procedure being completed, wherein the auditory tone is provided absent the overlaid information associated with the second step of the surgical procedure being adjusted.

13. The surgical system of claim 12 , wherein the second step of the surgical procedure comprises moving tissue from a first position to a second position, wherein the processor is further configured to provide, by the auditory feedback module, a second auditory tone as the tissue toward the second position.

14. The surgical system of claim 13 , wherein the processor is configured to increase a volume of the second auditory tone as the tissue approaches the second position.

15. The surgical system of claim 13 , wherein the processor is configured to increase a speed of the second auditory tone as the tissue approaches the second position.

16. A method performed by a surgical system, the method comprising:

obtaining a livestream of a surgical field of a surgical procedure, wherein the livestream is captured by an imaging device;

overlaying, on the livestream, information associated with the surgical procedure;

sending the livestream with the overlaid information for display;

determining a step of the surgical procedure; and

adjusting, based on the determined step of the surgical procedure, a position of a portion of the overlaid information on the livestream.

17. The method of claim 16 , further comprising:

adjusting, based on the determined step of the surgical procedure, a size of a portion of the overlaid information on the livestream.

18. The method of claim 16 , further comprising:

adjusting, based on the determined step of the surgical procedure, a weight of a portion of the overlaid information on the livestream.

19. The method of claim 16 , further comprising:

removing overlaid information irrelevant to the step of the surgical procedure.

20. The method of claim 16 , further comprising:

identifying additional information associated with the step of the surgical procedure; and

overlaying the identified additional information associated with the step of the surgical procedure on the livestream.
