Abstract
A surgical robotic system comprising: a robotic arm; a tool drive coupled to the robotic arm; a cannula interface configured to couple a cannula to the tool drive, the cannula interface having a fluid pathway in communication with an interior lumen of the cannula; and an insufflation pathway coupled to the robotic arm, the insufflation pathway having a distal end coupled to the fluid pathway and a proximal end coupled to a surgical insufflator.
Claims19
A surgical robotic system comprising:
- a robotic arm having an insufflation tube coupled thereto;
- a tool drive coupled to a distal end of the robotic arm and having a docking interface through which the insufflation tube extends;
- and
- a cannula interface configured to be received by the docking interface to couple a cannula to the tool drive, the cannula interface having an integrated fluid pathway in communication at a proximal end with the insufflation tube and at a distal end with an interior lumen of the cannula.

A surgical robotic system comprising:
- a surgical robotic assembly comprising:
- a robotic arm comprising an insufflation pathway having a proximal portion coupled to a surgical insufflator and a distal portion,
- a tool drive coupled to a distal portion of the robotic arm and having a docking interface through which the distal portion of the insufflation pathway extends, and
- a cannula interface configured to be received by the docking interface to couple a cannula to the tool drive, the cannula interface having an integrated fluid pathway in communication at a proximal portion with the insufflation pathway and at a distal portion with an interior lumen of the cannula dimensioned to receive a surgical tool;
- and
- a processor communicatively coupled to the surgical robotic assembly and the surgical insufflator, the processor operable to control an operation of the surgical insufflator based on a detected surgical condition.
