CA 2570336

An imageless robotized device for guiding surgical tools to improve the performance of surgical tasks is provided. The method of using it comprises the steps of: collecting anatomical landmarks with a robot arm; combining landmarks data with geometric planning parameters to generate a position data; automatically positioning a guiding tool mounted to the robot arm. For example, in total knee replacement surgery this device improves the accuracy of implant installation. Particular embodiments for a limb fixation device are also described.

Un dispositif robotisé sans image permettant de guider des instruments chirurgicaux afin d'améliorer l'opération chirurgicale. Le procédé d'utilisation consiste à recueillir des points de repère anatomiques au moyen d'un bras de robot; combiner ces points de repère avec des paramètres de planification géométrique afin de générer des données de positionnement; positionner automatiquement un instrument de guidage monté sur le bras du robot. Lors d'une chirurgie de remplacement total d'un genou, ce dispositif peut, par exemple, améliorer la précision d'un implant. Des modes de réalisation particuliers pour un dispositif de fixation d'un membre font également l'objet de cette invention.
