Abstract

Surgical hubs are disclosed. A surgical hub is configured to communicably couple to a plurality of modular devices. The surgical hub comprises a processor and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the surgical hub to: receive perioperative data from a modular device; determine an event type associated with the perioperative data received from the modular device; aggregate, for each event type, the perioperative data from a plurality of modular devices; compare, for each event type, the aggregated perioperative data from the plurality of modular devices with baseline perioperative data; and provide feedback according to whether the aggregated data for a subject event type deviates from the baseline perioperative data for the subject event type. The perioperative data comprises data detected by the plurality of modular devices during the course of a surgical procedure.
