Systems and methods for surgical and interventional planning, support, post-operative follow-up, and functional recovery tracking
First Claim
1. A surgical method, comprising:
- wearing a stereoscopic viewing device during performance of a surgical procedure on a patient;
receiving from the stereoscopic viewing device a visualization overlaid on the patient indicating a recommended trajectory for a pedicle screw into a vertebra of the patient, the recommended trajectory being part of a pre-operative plan for the surgical procedure developed before the performance of the surgical procedure; and
receiving an alert indicating a deviation between the recommended trajectory and an actual trajectory of the pedicle screw into the vertebra of the patient.

Abstract
Various systems and methods are provided for surgical and interventional planning, support, post-operative follow-up, and functional recovery tracking. In general, a patient can be tracked throughout medical treatment including through initial onset of symptoms, diagnosis, non-surgical treatment, surgical treatment, and recovery from the surgical treatment. In one embodiment, a patient and one or more medical professionals involved with treating the patient can electronically access a comprehensive treatment planning, support, and review system. The system can provide recommendations regarding diagnosis, non-surgical treatment, surgical treatment, and recovery from the surgical treatment based on data gathered from the patient and the medical professional(s). The system can manage the tracking of multiple patients, thereby allowing for data comparison between similar aspects of medical treatments and for learning over time through continual data gathering, analysis, and assimilation to decision-making algorithms.

12. A surgical system, comprising:
-
a stereoscopic viewing device configured to be worn by a user during performance of a surgical procedure on a patient and configured to provide to the user a three-dimensional visualization overlaid on the patient indicating a recommended trajectory for a pedicle screw into a vertebra of the patient; and a surgical planning, support, and management system including a memory and a processor, the memory having stored therein a pre-operative plan that includes the recommended trajectory for the pedicle screw into the vertebra of the patient, the memory having stored therein a pre-operative scanned image of the patient, the processor being configured to cause the user during performance of the surgical procedure to receive an alert indicating a deviation between the recommended trajectory and an actual trajectory of the pedicle screw into the vertebra of the patient, and the processor being configured to cause the visualization to automatically change during the performance of the surgical procedure using the stored pre-operative scanned image of the patient. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
