HAPTIC FEEDBACK DEVICE FOR SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS AND ROBOTIC SURGICAL SYSTEMS

摘要

A feedback patch for use with a surgical instrument or a robotic surgical system includes a substrate and a stimulator disposed on the substrate. The stimulator is configured to receive a feedback signal from a sensor of the surgical instrument or the robotic surgical system and is configured to stimulate a hand of a clinician interfacing with the surgical instrument or the robotic surgical system.
