Abstract: A teleoperated surgical instrument comprises a housing configured to couple to a teleoperated manipulator and an elongated tube having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The first end is mounted to the housing and the second end has one or more openings configured to deliver or receive a fluid at a surgical site. The instrument further comprises a flow control system in the housing. The flow control system includes a first tubular member coupled to the elongated tube and a first control element rotatable relative to the housing and the first tubular member. The first control element includes a receiving portion coupled to a shaft portion. The receiving portion is configured to couple with the teleoperated manipulator and rotate to control flow of the fluid through the first tubular member.

Abstract: A method of operating a shape sensing apparatus comprises receiving first shape data from a first shape sensor section including a first elongated optical fiber section extending between a first location coupled to a reference fixture and a second location coupled to a first target fixture. The method further comprises receiving second shape data from a second shape sensor section including a second elongated optical fiber section extending between a third location coupled to the reference fixture and a fourth location coupled to the first target fixture. The first and third locations are maintained in a first known kinematic relationship, and the second and fourth locations are maintained in a second known kinematic relationship. The method further comprises determining a position of an end portion of the first shape sensor section using the second shape data and using the first and second known kinematic relationships.
