IX Innovation, a medical IP company, today announces issuance of patent for “Robotic Surgical System for Insertion of Surgical Implants” by the USPTO
SEATTLE, WA, UNITED STATES, May 25, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — IX Innovation, a medical IP creation and monetization company focused on inventing the future of human surgery, and portfolio company of IntuitiveX, today announced the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) issued U.S. patent 11,571,266 entitled “Robotic Surgical System for Insertion of Surgical Implants“. This patent is the sixth in a series of many robotic surgery related assets which will be issued over the course of the year.
The ‘Robotic Surgical System for Insertion of Surgical Implants’ patent relates to methods, apparatuses, and systems for robotic insertion of surgical implants, such as screws, rods, or other components, into a patient’s body. The goal of these methods is to minimize the risk of harm to the patient and improve surgical outcomes by leveraging clinical data from previous procedures or information provided by a supervising surgeon. By using this data, the robotic surgical system can achieve more precise placement of surgical components and implants.
“The advantages of the disclosed methods and systems include improved precision, stability, and dexterity in surgical procedures, automation of routine tasks, compensation for a surgeon’s lack of experience in a specific procedure, and enhanced control of insertion parameters.” Commented Simon Robinson, Managing Partner of IX Innovation. “These advancements can lead to safer and more accurate surgeries, shorter hospital stays, quicker recovery times, and reduced complications.”
Traditional surgical methods for implanting medical devices or implants require manual insertion by surgeons, which can be challenging, time-consuming, and prone to human error. This patent addresses these limitations by improving the precision, accuracy, and efficiency of surgical implantation by utilizing a robotic arm or system equipped with imaging devices and software algorithms. The robotic system assists surgeons in positioning and inserting implants with greater accuracy, reducing the risk of errors such as improper placement, misalignment, or damage to surrounding tissues.
