MACHINE-LEARNING BASED SURGICAL INSTRUMENT RECOGNITION SYSTEM AND METHOD TO TRIGGER EVENTS IN OPERATING ROOM WORKFLOWS

摘要

Technologies are provided that define surgical team activities based on instrument-use events. The system receives a real-time video feed of the surgical instruments prep area and detects unique surgical instruments and/or materials entering/exiting the video feed. The detection of these instruments and/or materials trigger instrument use events that automatically advance the surgical procedure workflow and/or trigger data collection events.
