Patent attributes
Various analytics systems are disclosed. An analytics system is configured to communicably couple to a surgical hub. The surgical hub is configured to communicably couple to a modular device that is controlled by a control program. The analytics system comprises a processor and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, causes the analytics system to: receive perioperative data indicative of an operational behavior of the modular device, wherein the perioperative data comprises data detected by the modular device during a surgical procedure; receive procedural outcome data associated with the surgical procedure; analyze the perioperative data and the procedural outcome data to determine whether the operational behavior is suboptimal; generate a control program update configured to alter the manner in which the control program operates the modular device during the surgical procedure for the operational behavior; and transmit the control program update to the modular device.
