Abstract

Examples here describe a surgical system that may include a cloud computing system, a surgical hub, and a surgical instrument. The cloud computing system may be configured to aggregate data from multiple surgical devices. The surgical hub may determine whether communication is available with the cloud computing system, may receive the aggregate data from the multiple surgical devices via the receiver, may update one or more surgical hub control algorithms based on the aggregated data received, and may continue to communicate with the cloud computing system to receive additional updates, wherein the additional updates relate to updated aggregate data determined by the cloud computing system. The surgical instrument may determine whether communication is available with the cloud computing system and with the surgical hub and may receive the aggregate data relating to the multiple surgical devices from the cloud computing system or the surgical hub via the receiver.
