Patent ID: 8498868

Claim:
A computerized method for operating a medical system by an operator during a procedure, comprising: continuously registering a parameter correlated with a quality of a performance of the procedure while performing the procedure wherein the parameter comprises counting the number of times a step in the procedure is repeated; evaluating the parameter based on a predetermined quality criterion correlated with a fault-free performance of the procedure step wherein the procedure is performed fault free when the total number of times the procedure step is performed does not exceed a predetermined maximum number of times that the procedure step is performed; detecting motion made by the operator for actuating a control of the medical system wherein actuation of the control directs operation of a device used in the procedure and generates the parameter; initiating an auxiliary procedure when the parameter violates the predetermined quality criterion for performing the procedure step correctly; and providing a computer for performing the steps of continuously registering a parameter, evaluating the parameter and initiating an auxiliary procedure wherein the parameter is stored in the computer.
