An instrument can include a shaft with a proximal end portion and a distal end portion, an end effector at the distal end portion of the shaft, and a transmission mechanism at the proximal end portion of the shaft. The transmission mechanism can include a driven input device engageable with an external drive mechanism. The instrument can include an indicator operably coupled to the driven input device and moveable through each of a plurality of consecutive positions, each of the plurality of consecutive positions being associated with a unique indicium of a non-zero number of available uses left of the instrument. In response to the driven input device being driven, the indicator moves from a current position of the plurality of positions to a subsequent position of the plurality of positions. Devices, systems and methods relate to instrument use recording and recording reprocessing cycles.
