  • Publication number: 20250086234
    Abstract: A natural language request is received for surgical event information associated with one or more network-connected medical devices. Based on the natural language request, a generative artificial intelligence model is prompted to generate a database query. This database query is used to query a graph database which returns, data responsive to the database query. Such responsive information can be conveyed to a user initiating the request in a user interface (e.g., GUI, audio, etc.). In some variations, the results from the graph database are used to poll one or more other models to obtain further contextual information or to provide curation of the results in a more user-friendly and intuitive manner.

  • Patent number: 11276001
    Abstract: Each of a plurality of edge computing devices are configured to receive data streams generated by at least one sensor forming part of a respective medical device (e.g., a sensor-equipped surgical tool, etc.) which, in turn, characterizes use of the respective medical device in relation to a particular patient. Each of the edge computing devices can execute at least one machine learning model which generates or from which model attributes are derived. The generated model attributes are anonymized using an anonymization technique such as k-anonymity. The anonymized generated model attributes are homomorphically encrypted and transmitted to a central server. Encrypted model attribute updates to at least one of the machine learning models are later received from the central server which results in the machine learning models executing on one or more of the edge computing devices to be updated based on the received encrypted model attribute updates.
