  • Patent number: 12220174
    Abstract: Systems and methods for intraoperative implant fit analysis and longevity prediction for a prosthetic implant to be integrated with the physiological tissue of a patient, the method comprising the steps of: collection of data via a plurality of sensors situated in proximity to the tissue and implant and a plurality of data sources; determining tissue and implant state and morphology based on the collected data; generating compatibility information between the tissue and implant based on the determined tissue and implant state and morphology; processing compatibility information into a form adapted for evaluation against a pre-determined comparator; generating a means of predicting postoperative implant performance and longevity utilising the historical dataset of comparison information and postoperative results; and generating and providing corrective information for alteration of the tissue state and morphology for improved postoperative implant performance and longevity.

  • Publication number: 20220068496
    Abstract: A method for intraoperative state analysis and classification of articular tissue comprising the steps of: sensing data of the articular tissue via a plurality of sensors situated in proximity to the articular tissue for detecting a response to a stimulus; determining state analysis and classification information through a verified means; processing the sensed data into a form adapted to be evaluated against a comparator; generating a means of predicting the state analysis and classification utilizing a historical dataset of processed information; and performing the state analysis and classification using the generated means based on processing the stimulus response obtained intraoperatively.
