Robotic Spine Surgery System And Methods With Haptic Interface

摘要

Disclosed herein are techniques including a robotic manipulator including a surgical tool to interface with and rotate the screw about a rotational axis. A haptic device includes an actuator and a rotational interface coupled to the actuator and the rotational interface is manually manipulatable by a hand of an operator. One or more controllers control movement of the robotic manipulator to maintain the rotational axis of the surgical tool along a planned trajectory; autonomously control the surgical tool to rotate the screw at a rotational rate about the rotational axis and to linearly advance the screw at an advancement rate according to a known thread geometry of the screw; obtain a measurement indicative of a present interaction between the screw and the target site; and control the actuator of the haptic device to enable the rotational interface to emulate the present interaction between the screw and the target site.
