  • Publication number: 20240081922
    Abstract: A system includes a proximal sheath, a distal sheath, and a scope shaft. The proximal sheath has a distal end with a first connection member and is configured to be positioned extracorporeally relative to a patient. The distal sheath has a proximal end with a second connection member configured to releasably connect with the first connection member. A distal sheath portion of the distal sheath is configured to be passed through a body wall and into a body cavity of the patient. The scope shaft is slidable through the proximal and distal sheaths to access the body cavity and includes a distal tip section having a lens configured to visualize the body cavity.

  • Publication number: 20230380928
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to endoscope cleaning systems and methods. The endoscope cleaning system can include a pump housing that houses a peristaltic pump, an endoscope sheath fluidly connected to the pump housing, and a pump control communicatively coupled to the peristaltic pump. Upon activation of the pump control, the peristaltic pump can supply fluid to the endoscope sheath for cleaning an endoscope. Upon deactivation of the pump control, the peristaltic pump can remove residual fluid from the endoscope.

  • Publication number: 20230240770
    Abstract: Robotics surgical systems, instrument mounts, and endoscopes are disclosed. A robotic surgical system includes a robotic arm, an instrument mount arranged at a distal end of the robotic arm, and an endoscope comprising a housing and a shaft. The housing is configured to be mounted to the instrument mount, and the shaft extends from the housing in a distal direction. A cable is connected to the housing and extends from the housing in a distal direction and along a lateral side of the housing.
