Systems and methods for surgical and interventional planning, support, post-operative follow-up, and functional recovery tracking

A medical method, comprising:

• a processor receiving plan data regarding a virtual performance of a particular surgical procedure on a patient, the virtual performance being a simulation of the particular surgical procedure on a three-dimensional simulated model of the patient using virtual surgical instruments;
• the processor receiving performance data regarding an actual performance of the particular surgical procedure on the patient, the performance data being received in real time during the actual performance of the surgical procedure, and the virtual performance of the surgical procedure having been performed and completed prior to a start of the actual performance of the surgical procedure on the patient;
• the processor determining deviation between the plan data and the performance data;
• if the plan data is determined to deviate from the performance data outside a predetermined degree of tolerance, the processor providing a warning to a user that includes an indication of the determined variance, and the processor receiving subsequent performance data in real time during the actual performance of the surgical procedure and determining deviation between the plan data and the subsequently received performance data;
• and
• if the plan data is determined to deviate from the performance data within the predetermined degree of tolerance, the processor receiving subsequent performance data in real time during the actual performance of the surgical procedure and determining deviation between the plan data and the subsequently received performance data;
• wherein the patient is on a bed Burin the actual performance of the surgical procedure;
• the surgical procedure Is a spinal surgical procedure;
• the method further comprises, upon determining that the plan data deviates from the performance data outside a predetermined degree of tolerance, the processor causing the bed to move so as to position the patient in the desired position;
• the desired position aligns a vertebra of patient for a trajectory of approach;
• the method further comprises the processor receiving, from a head-mountable stereoscopic viewing device worn by the surgeon, an input indicative of the surgeon desiring the patient to be in a second desired position;
• and
• the method further comprises the processor causing the bed to move so as to position the patient in the second desired position;
• and
• the second desired position aligns a second vertebra of the patient for a trajectory of posterior approach.
