Abstract

Abstract A surgical operating apparatus which reduces an adverse influence caused by a diseased portion of a patient while a surgical operation is carried out by the surgical operating apparatus. The surgical operating apparatus includes a disease portion tissue manipulator for treating a treating subject portion of the patient in response to an entered control command, a manipulation inputting unit for inputting a manipulation command to the disease portion manipulating means, and a detector for detecting a repeated movement of a diseased portion of said patient. The surgical operating apparatus adjusts the movement of the disease portion manipulator in response to the detection output from the detector.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 114 words
A surgical operating apparatus comprising; disease portion tissue contact manipulating means for contact treating a treating subject portion of a patient in response to an entered control command; manipulation inputting means capable of inputting a manipulation command to said disease portion contact manipulating means; and means for detecting a repeated movement of a diseased portion of said patient, for determining a movable period and a stationary period, and for providing a detection output indicative thereof; whereby: said surgical operating apparatus adjusts the movement of said disease portion contact manipulating means in contact with the treating subject portion of the patient in response to the detection output from said detecting means indicating the stationary period.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 114 words
A surgical operating apparatus comprising; disease portion tissue contact manipulating means for contact treating a treating subject portion of a patient in response to an entered control command; manipulation inputting means capable of inputting a manipulation command to said disease portion contact manipulating means; and means for detecting a repeated movement of a diseased portion of said patient, for determining a movable period and a stationary period, and for providing a detection output indicative thereof; whereby: said surgical operating apparatus adjusts the movement of said disease portion contact manipulating means in contact with the treating subject portion of the patient in response to the detection output from said detecting means indicating the stationary period.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 116 words
A surgical operating apparatus comprising; disease portion tissue contact manipulating means for contact treating a treating subject portion of a patient in response to an entered control command; manipulation inputting means capable of inputting a manipulation command to said disease portion contact manipulating means; and means for detecting a repeated movement of a diseased portion of said patient, for determining a movable period and a stationary period, and for providing a detection output indicative thereof; whereby: said surgical operating apparatus adjusts a position of said disease portion contact manipulating means with respect to said treating subject portion in response to the detection output from said detecting means indicating both the movable period and the stationary period.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 116 words
A surgical operating apparatus comprising; disease portion tissue contact manipulating means for contact treating a treating subject portion of a patient in response to an entered control command; manipulation inputting means capable of inputting a manipulation command to said disease portion contact manipulating means; and means for detecting a repeated movement of a diseased portion of said patient, for determining a movable period and a stationary period, and for providing a detection output indicative thereof; whereby: said surgical operating apparatus adjusts a position of said disease portion contact manipulating means with respect to said treating subject portion in response to the detection output from said detecting means indicating both the movable period and the stationary period.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 124 words
A surgical operating apparatus comprising: disease portion tissue contact manipulating means for contact treating a treating subject portion of a patient in response to an entered control command; manipulation inputting means capable of inputting a manipulation command to said disease portion contact manipulating means; means for detecting a repeated movement of a diseased portion of said patient, for determining a movable period and a stationary period, and for providing a detection output indicative thereof; and: adjusting means for outputting to said disease portion contact manipulating means, a command used to adjust said disease portion contact manipulating means so as not to be made in contact with said treating subject portion in response to the detecting output from said detecting means indicating a movable period.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 124 words
A surgical operating apparatus comprising: disease portion tissue contact manipulating means for contact treating a treating subject portion of a patient in response to an entered control command; manipulation inputting means capable of inputting a manipulation command to said disease portion contact manipulating means; means for detecting a repeated movement of a diseased portion of said patient, for determining a movable period and a stationary period, and for providing a detection output indicative thereof; and: adjusting means for outputting to said disease portion contact manipulating means, a command used to adjust said disease portion contact manipulating means so as not to be made in contact with said treating subject portion in response to the detecting output from said detecting means indicating a movable period.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 30 words
A surgical operating apparatus as claimed in any one of the preceding claims 1 to 3 wherein: said detecting means detects a pulsation of the diseased portion of said patient.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 69 words
A surgical operating apparatus as claimed in any one of the preceding claims 1 to 3 wherein: said surgical operating apparatus is further comprised of: measuring means for measuring a movement of said treating subject portion; and said surgical operating apparatus adjusts the movement of said disease portion manipulating means based upon stored data acquired from the output of said measuring means and the output of said detecting means.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 92 words
A surgical operating apparatus as claimed in any one of the preceding claims 1 - 3 , wherein said detecting means in detecting the repeated movement of the diseased portion of the patient detects repeated nonmovement of the diseased portion of said patient as the stationary period, and said surgical operating apparatus adjusts the movement of said disease portion contact manipulating means in contact with the treating subject portion to occur at least during the stationary period of nonmovement of the diseased portion of said patient as detected by said detecting means.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 47 words
A surgical apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein said surgical operating apparatus suppresses contact of said disease portion manipulating means with the diseased portion of said patient during the movable period of movement of the diseased portion of said patient as detected by said detecting means.
