ROBOTIC ASSISTED MOVEMENTS OF ELONGATED MEDICAL DEVICES

Japanese Patent JP2023040283

A

To provide a robot system and method to automatically move medical devices such as a guide wire and/or a catheter.SOLUTION: In one exemplary embodiment, a system 700 includes: an apparatus having a first elongated medical device and a second elongated medical device; and a controller connected to the apparatus. The controller is configured to determine a magnitude and a direction of linear translation of the first elongated medical device and responsive to the determined translation of the first elongated medical device, cause a linear translation of the second elongated medical device, the linear translation of the second elongated device having a substantially equal magnitude to the linear translation of the first elongated medical device and being in a direction opposite the direction of translation of the first elongated medical device. The controller is further configured to modify at least one parameter of the linear translation of either (a) the first elongated medical device or (b) the second elongated medical device in response to the determined translation of the first elongated device.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 7
