Abstract: A surgical platform and trolley assembly and an interface of a robotic system are provided. The surgical platform and trolley assembly includes a trolley portion and a surgical platform portion. The trolley portion supports the surgical platform portion, and affords positioning and repositioning of the surgical platform portion relative to the interface of the robotic system. An end portion of the surgical platform portion is attachable relative to the robotic system via engagement to the interface.

Abstract: A surgical tool, systems, and method for cleaning an anatomical space is provided. At least one brush is disposed on a shaft extending through a tube. The tube includes a corresponding brush slot for each brush. A motor is operable to rotate the shaft to cause the at least one brush to move from a closed position to a cleaning position. The at least one brush is positioned entirely inside of the tube when in the closed position and at least partially outside of the tube when in the cleaning position. A fluid source is operable to supply fluid to the at least one brush as the at least one brush passes through the brush slot.

Abstract: Methods and systems for determining and maintaining a center of rotation are provided. A center of rotation may be determined based on first information about a robotic region of interest of a robot and second information about a patient region of interest. An operating table having multiple degrees of freedom may be caused to rotate about the center of rotation from a first position to a second position. A control system may be caused to control the robot based on the operating table being in the second position.

Abstract: An interbody tool may include an upper portion with an upper contact surface and a plurality of upper legs; a lower portion with a lower contact surface and a plurality of lower legs, each of the lower legs movably connected to one of the upper legs; a plurality of gauges, each gauge configured to measure a position of one of the plurality of upper legs relative to a corresponding one of the plurality of lower legs; at least one actuator configured to selectively push the upper portion away from the lower portion; and at least one sensor for measuring a force exerted by the at least one actuator.

Abstract: A cannulation tool, systems, and methods for placing a cannula is provided. The tool includes a body and a plurality of tubes removably secured to the body. Each tube is moveable from a retracted position to an extended position. The plurality of tubes may include an inner tube, an outer tube, and a set of tubes positioned between the inner tube and the outer tube. Each tube of the set of tubes is nested in an adjacent tube, the outer tube is positioned external to the set of tubes, and the inner tube is positioned internal to the set of tubes. The tool also includes a gripper rod having a gripper disposed on an end thereof for forcibly moving each tube of the set of tubes, in sequence, from the retracted position to the extended position.

Abstract: A surgical tool comprises a dilator, a cutter, a retractable brush, and at least one retractable drill. The dilator is configured to dilate tissue of a patient and can be positioned in an undilated configuration or a dilated configuration. The cutter is configured to cut the tissue and is disposed at a distal end of the dilator. The cutter is configured to move between a cutting position when the dilator is in the undilated configuration and a non-cutting position when the dilator is in the dilated configuration. The retractable brush is configured to brush a surface of an anatomical element of the patient to remove matter from the surface. The at least one retractable drill is configured to drill into the anatomical element.
