Surgery system
First Claim
1. A surgery system comprising:
- a plurality of types of medical devices to which a plurality of types of treatment equipment are connected, the plurality of types of medical devices generating and outputting treatment equipment driving signals corresponding to the connected treatment equipment;
communicating means provided between the plurality of types of medical devices, for communicating information one with another;
driving control information transmission means provided to each of the plurality of types of medical devices, for generating driving control information corresponding to the treatment equipment connected to its own medical device, and transmitting the driving control information to other medical devices via the communication means;
control information determination reply means provided to each of the plurality of types of medical devices, for receiving driving control information transmitted from other medical devices and making permission/non-permission determination regarding whether or not operations can be made in synchronization with other medical devices, based on the driving control information, and also making reply of the permission/non-permission determination to the originating medical device via the communication means; and
driving control decision means provided to each of the plurality of types of medical devices, for deciding the driving control of the medical device to which it belongs, based on the synchronization driving permission/non-permission determination reply from the control information determination reply means of another medical device.

Abstract
A surgery system having multiple types of medical devices to which multiple types of treatment equipment are connected, comprises: a communicating unit for communicating information between the multiple medical devices; a transmission unit for generating driving control information corresponding to the treatment equipment connected to its own medical device including synchronized driving with the other medical devices, and transmitting the driving control information to other medical devices via the communication unit; a reply unit for making permission/non-permission synchronized operation with other medical devices, based on the transmitted driving control information, and returning the determination results; and a decision unit for deciding the driving control of the medical device to which it belongs, based on the returned synchronization driving permission/non-permission determination; wherein selecting and operating treatment equipment according to the contents of treatment can automatically effect synchronized operations of other medical devices or forbid such synchronized operations, thereby improving the efficiency of the surgery.
