Abstract[English]
Co-manipulation surgical systems having robot arms are described herein that may be used for assisting with surgical procedures including laparoscopic surgery. The co-manipulation surgical systems allow a surgeon to use commercially available surgical tools while providing benefits associated with surgical robotics. Advantageously, surgical tools having an elongated shaft may be seamlessly coupled to the robot arms using a disposable coupler while the reusable portions of the robot arm remain in a sterile drape. The co-manipulation surgical system further includes a universal adapter configured to removably coupled additional surgical tools to the robot arms to perform additional surgical procedures including open surgery.[French]
L'invention concerne des systèmes chirurgicaux de co-manipulation comportant des bras de robot qui peuvent être utilisés pour assister des interventions chirurgicales, notamment une chirurgie laparoscopique. Les systèmes chirurgicaux de co-manipulation permettent à un chirurgien d'utiliser des outils chirurgicaux disponibles dans le commerce tout en offrant des avantages associés à la robotique chirurgicale. Avantageusement, des outils chirurgicaux comportant un arbre allongé peuvent être accouplés sans interruption aux bras de robot à l'aide d'un accouplement jetable tandis que les parties réutilisables du bras de robot restent dans un champ stérile. Le système chirurgical de co-manipulation comprend en outre un adaptateur universel conçu pour accoupler de manière amovible des outils chirurgicaux supplémentaires aux bras de robot pour effectuer des procédures chirurgicales supplémentaires, notamment une chirurgie ouverte.
