Co-manipulation surgical system for use with surgical instruments for performing surgery according to stored surgeon's preferences

A co-manipulation surgical system to assist with surgery performed using a surgical instrument, the co-manipulation surgical system comprising:

• a robot arm comprising a plurality of links, a plurality of joints, a proximal region operatively coupled to a base, and a distal region configured to be removably coupled to the surgical instrument;
• a plurality of motors operatively coupled to corresponding joints of the plurality of joints;
• and
• a controller operatively coupled to the robot arm and configured to permit the robot arm to be freely moveable in a co-manipulation mode responsive to movement at a handle of the surgical instrument for performing surgery, the controller programmed to:
• load a user profile associated with a first user, the user profile comprising one or more preferred operating parameters associated with a preference of the first user;
• monitor operating characteristics of the co-manipulation surgical system to detect if a condition exists;
• control, based on detecting that the condition exists, the co-manipulation surgical system according to at least one of the one or more preferred operating parameters;
• record data indicative of interactions between the first user and the co-manipulation surgical system collected in real-time;
• and
• execute one or more machine learning models to learn the first user's preferences over time based on the recorded data.

• load a user profile associated with a first user, the user profile comprising one or more preferred operating parameters associated with a preference of the first user;
• determine a sequence of clinical steps of a surgical procedure;
• infer a clinical step of the sequence of clinical steps of the surgical procedure in real-time;
• and
• estimate a procedure end time based at least partially on the inferred clinical step.
