Patent number: 12075992Abstract: The systems and devices disclosed herein can include a force transfer mechanism that permits force transfer between an instrument device manipulator and a tool coupled to the instrument device manipulator. The force transfer mechanism can include a first alignment member and a second alignment member. The first alignment member can have a disengaged position in which the first alignment member is out of engagement with the second alignment member, thereby reducing or preventing engagement between an instrument device manipulator base driveshaft and a tool driveshaft and permitting rotation of the base driveshaft relative to the tool driveshaft. When in an engaged position, the second alignment member can permit engagement between the base driveshaft to the tool driveshaft and transfer of rotary motion from the base driveshaft to the tool driveshaft. Additionally, the present disclosure also relates to methods of preparing and using a medical robotic system.Type: GrantFiled: December 25, 2020Date of Patent: September 3, 2024Assignee: Auris Health, Inc.Inventors: Adrian Tyler Hairrell, Andre J.

Publication number: 20210393344Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for calibrating a medical instrument are discussed herein. For example, a first instrument can be configured to access an anatomical site via a first access path and a second instrument can be configured to access the anatomical site via a second access path. The second instrument can include an imaging component configured to provide image data representative of the anatomical site and the first instrument. A difference can be identified between a first coordinate frame associated with the first instrument and a second coordinate frame associated with the second instrument. A control frame of reference associated with the first instrument can be updated based at least in part on the difference.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2021Publication date: December 23, 2021Inventors: Chauncey F. GRAETZEL, Russell W. PONG, Sarah PLEWE, Toni DIVIC, Aadel AL-JADDA

Publication number: 20210361364Abstract: A medical instrument can have an elongated shaft, at least three bending stiffness zones arranged along a length of the elongated shaft, and at least two transition zones that have a variable bending stiffness extending over a length thereof. Each bending stiffness zone can have a bending stiffness that extends over a length of the bending stiffness zone. The variable bending stiffness of each transition zone can vary from a first bending stiffness on a first side of the transition zone to a second bending stiffness on a second side of the transition zone.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 6, 2021Publication date: November 25, 2021Inventors: Aadel AL-JADDA, Curtis James CATON, Christopher Andrew COOK

Patent number: 11109920Abstract: Medical instruments with variable bending stiffness profiles are disclosed. A medical instrument can include a bending stiffness profile comprising a plurality of bending stiffness zones of substantially constant bending stiffness separated by transition zones. The bending stiffness profile can be achieved by modulating various modalities of the medical instrument along its length. A compound medical instrument can include a scope telescoping within a sheath. A variable bending stiffness profile of the compound medical instrument can be modulated by adjusting the relative position of the scope and the sheath.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2019Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: Auris Health, Inc.Inventors: Aadel Al-Jadda, Curtis James Caton, Christopher Andrew Cook

Publication number: 20200305793Abstract: A self-heating belly band for wrapping around an infant is provided. The belly band includes a multi-layer fabric construction that captures the infant's body heat and then reuses it to warm the infant's stomach and internal organs thereby providing the infant relief. The belly band also provides pressure on the infant's waist to provide the infant a cuddling, soothing, and comfort feel. Hook and loop fastener strips on top and bottom layers of the belly band allow wrapping and tightness adjustment around the infant's stomach. The belly band also includes a plurality of monitoring system that allows medical monitoring of the baby's vital signs. The monitoring system uses ultrasonic sound or infrared light to alert a user when the baby's vital sign increases or decrease from a preselected threshold. The monitor, along with sensors is used to measure blood pressure, heartbeat, temperature, oxygen level, as well as movement.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2020Publication date: October 1, 2020Applicant: Memeeno IncInventors: Souheila Al-Jadda, Aadel Al-Jadda

Publication number: 20050082248Abstract: The invention relates to a closure of the iris diaphragm type engaging a neck portion of a container. The closure includes a thin, flexible elastic tubular member having one end connected to a rigid mobile tubular member and the other end connected to the fixed neck portion of the container. Two male protrusions on the inner surface of the mobile rigid tubular member engage female notches on the fixed outer surface of the container neck such that when the mobile member is rotated, it causes the elastic tube to twist and fold upon itself in an iris-diaphragm fashion thereby rendering a fluid, solid and light impermeable seal at the iris. The mobile member can be rotated variably thereby reducing the matter flow through the center of the container.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2003Publication date: April 21, 2005Inventors: Omar Al-Jadda, Aadel Al-Jadda
