Communication of smoke evacuation system parameters to hub or cloud in smoke evacuation module for interactive surgical platform

A computer implemented surgical system, comprising:

• a surgical hub, the surgical hub including a processor and a memory;
• a cloud computing network;
• a modular device in communication with the surgical hub, wherein the modular device comprises a generator;
• a smoke evacuation module in communication with the surgical hub, wherein the smoke evacuation module is configured to:
• acquire a value of a parameter;
• transmit the value of the parameter to the surgical hub;
• wherein the surgical hub is configured to:
• process the value of the parameter;
• determine an impact of the value of the parameter on at least one of the smoke evacuation module and the generator;
• send an instruction to adjust operation to at least one of the smoke evacuation module and the generator based on the impact;
• wherein at least one of the smoke evacuation module and the generator is configured to:
• adjust operation based on the instruction.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer readable instructions, which when executed cause a computer-implemented interactive surgical system comprising a surgical hub, a cloud computing network, a surgical evacuation system, and a modular device comprising a generator to:

• acquire, by the surgical evacuation system, a value of a parameter;
• transmit the value of the parameter to the surgical hub;
• process, by the surgical hub, the value of the parameter;
• determine, by the surgical hub, an impact of the value of the parameter on at least one of the surgical evacuation system and the generator;
• send an instruction to adjust operation from the surgical hub to at least one of the surgical evacuation system and the generator based on the impact;
• and
• adjust operation of at least one of the surgical evacuation system and the generator based on the instruction.
