Abstract:

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are provided for security-aware caching of resources. An offline version of a resource may be prepared for a computing device. The offline version of the resource may include a security parameter. The security parameter may define a security rule to be enforced with respect to offline usage of the resource. The offline version of the resource may be provided for caching by the computing device. The cache of the offline version of the resource may enable the offline usage of the resource by the computing device. The security rule for the offline usage of the resource may be enforced by the computing device based on the security parameter.

Disha V. Labhasetwar - Cincinnati OH, US
Nicholas M. Morgan - West Chester OH, US

International Classification:

A61B 17/115
A61B 90/00

Abstract:

An apparatus includes a handle assembly having a body, a shaft assembly having an outer tubular member extending distally from the body, an end effector, an anvil, and a trocar latch assembly. The end effector includes a staple deck fixed relative to the outer tubular member, a staple driver that can actuate relative to the staple deck between an unfired position and a fired position, and a trocar that can actuate relative to the staple deck and the staple driver, the anvil can couple with trocar to move relative to the staple deck to define a gap distance. The trocar latch assembly includes a locking body that can actuate between an unlocked configuration and a locked configuration in response to the staple driver actuating between the unfired position and the fired position. The locking body can selective fix the trocar relative to the staple deck in the locked position.

International Classification:

A61B 17/115
A61B 90/00

Abstract:

An apparatus includes a body assembly with a handle and a shaft portion, an end effector with a staple deck fixed to the shaft portion, an anvil, and a firing assembly. The end effector further includes a trocar and a staple driver both configured to actuate relative to the staple deck. The staple driver can actuate a distance between an unfired position and a fired position. The trocar can couple with the anvil to define a gap distance. The firing assembly includes a trigger pivotably coupled with the body assembly via a first pivot, a driver actuator configured to actuate the staple driver, and a linkage assembly pivotably coupled with the trigger via a second pivot and the driver actuator. Where the second pivot is proximal relative to the first pivot. The linkage assembly can drive the driver actuator is response to the trigger pivoting about the first pivot.

International Classification:

A61B 17/068
A61B 17/128

Abstract:

A surgical device for clipping tissue is disclosed. The surgical device comprises a housing, a shaft defining a shaft axis, and an end effector. The end effector comprises a first jaw, a second jaw, and a receiver. The first jaw and the second jaw are movable relative to each other between an open position and a closed position. The receiver is at least partially defined between said first jaw and said second jaw. The surgical device further comprises a rotatable clip magazine configured to rotate about the shaft axis, a first advancing system, and a second advancing system. The clip magazine is configured to store at least two clips. The second advancing system is configured to operate sequentially with the first advancing system. The first advancing system and the second advancing system are configured to sequentially advance the clips into the receiver of the end effector.

Abstract:

A method for adjusting control parameters of a clip applier using a surgical hub is disclosed. The method comprises gathering data during a first surgical procedure, evaluating the gathered data to determine the appropriate operation of a clip applier in a subsequent surgical procedure, gathering data during the operation of the clip applier in the subsequent surgical procedure, determining if the operation of the clip applier needs to be adjusted based on the data gathered during the subsequent surgical procedure, and adjusting the operation of the clip applier based on the data gathered during the subsequent surgical procedure.
