Method Of Sensing Forces On A Working Instrument

View page
US Patent:
8052621, Nov 8, 2011
Filed:
Feb 22, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/678016
Inventors:
Daniel T. Wallace - Burlingame CA, US
Gregory Stahler - San Jose CA, US
Alex Goldenberg - San Francisco CA, US
Gene Reis - San Jose CA, US
Robert G. Younge - Portola Valley CA, US
Mathew Clopp - Santa Clara CA, US
David Camarillo - Stanford CA, US
Toby St. John King - Warshash, GB
Assignee:
Hansen Medical, Inc. - Mountain View CA
International Classification:
A61B 5/103
A61B 5/117
US Classification:
600587
Abstract:
A method for estimating the force on a distal end of a working catheter includes positioning a portion of a robotically controlled guide catheter and working catheter into a body lumen wherein a distal end of the working catheter projects distally from a distal end of the guide catheter. The working catheter and guide catheter are dithered with respect to one another using a dithering device operatively connected to a proximal portion of the working catheter. The coupling may occur directly to the working catheter or via a seal such as a Touhy seal. The force experienced by the working catheter at a proximal region is measured through at least one dithering cycle. The force at the distal end of the working catheter is then estimated based on the measured force at the proximal region. The estimated force may be displayed to a physician on, for example, a monitor.

US Patent:
8092397, Jan 10, 2012
Filed:
Feb 22, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/678001
Inventors:
Daniel T. Wallace - Burlingame CA, US
Gregory Stahler - San Jose CA, US
Alex Goldenberg - San Francisco CA, US
Gene Reis - San Jose CA, US
Robert G. Younge - Portola Valley CA, US
Mathew Clopp - Santa Clara CA, US
David B. Camarillo - Stanford CA, US
Toby St. John King - Warshash, GB
Assignee:
Hansen Medical, Inc. - Mountain View CA
International Classification:
A61B 5/103
A61B 5/117
A61M 25/00
US Classification:
600587, 600585
Abstract:
A robotic catheter manipulator includes a guide catheter including proximal and distal ends and lumen extending there through. A flexible bellows is secured at one end to the proximal end of the guide catheter and at the other end to a seal configured to receive a working catheter. In a loaded state, the working catheter is fixed relative to the seal. A ditherer is operatively connected to the seal for dithering the working catheter relative to the guide catheter when placed therein. The robotic catheter manipulator includes at least one force sensor for measuring the force applied to the working catheter by the ditherer. Force measurements may be translated into an estimated force that is experienced at the distal end of the working catheter which may then be displayed to the physician via a monitor or display.

Apparatus Systems And Methods For Flushing Gas From Catheter Of A Robotic Catheter System

US Patent:
8377077, Feb 19, 2013
Filed:
Mar 2, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/039181
Inventors:
Gene Reis - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
Hansen Medical, Inc. - Mountain View CA
International Classification:
A61B 19/00
US Classification:
606130, 606249
Abstract:
Apparatus, systems and methods for flushing a lumen of a catheter instrument to reduce or eliminate bubbles within the lumen. An interface valve is adapted for attachment to a proximal end of the catheter instrument and can receive a working instrument for insertion into the he catheter instrument lumen. A fluid supply line and purge lines are coupled to the interface valve and in fluid communication with at least a portion of the interface valve lumen. Flow of fluid (e. g. saline and a gas such as bubbles) through purge lines is controllable using clamps such that fluid flowing into the interface valve lumen can be manipulated to flow in different directions through different portions of the interface valve lumen for evacuation through different purge lines, thus allowing for purging of forward and backward flows to remove gas or bubbles from the catheter instrument lumen.

Modular Interfaces And Drive Actuation Through Barrier

US Patent:
8602031, Dec 10, 2013
Filed:
Jan 12, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/352551
Inventors:
Gene Reis - San Jose CA, US
Gregory Francis Hirth - Pleasanton CA, US
Enrique Romo - Dublin CA, US
Assignee:
Hansen Medical, Inc. - Mountain View CA
International Classification:
A61B 19/08
A61B 19/00
US Classification:
128852, 606130
Abstract:
The invention relates generally to robotically controlled systems, such as medical robotic systems. In one variation, a robotic catheter system is configured with a sterile barrier capable for transmitting a rotary force from a drive system on one side of the barrier to surgical tool on the other side of the sterile barrier for performing minimally invasive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Modularized drive systems for robotics arc also disclosed herein.

US Patent:
20100170519, Jul 8, 2010
Filed:
Nov 6, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/614349
Inventors:
Enrique ROMO - Dublin CA, US
Gene REIS - San Jose CA, US
Gregory J. STAHLER - San Jose CA, US
Gregory Francis HIRTH - Pleasanton CA, US
Assignee:
HANSEN MEDICAL, INC. - Mountain View CA
International Classification:
A61B 19/10
A61B 19/00
US Classification:
128852, 606130
Abstract:
A robotic surgical system configured to perform minimally invasive surgical procedures. In one variation, this robotic surgical system includes an instrument driver configured to steer an elongate instrument of an instrument assembly in one or more degrees of motion. A drape is disposed between the instrument driver and the instrument assembly. A drive interface apparatus is operatively coupled to the drape. The drape and drive interface apparatus may form a fluid barrier between the instrument driver and the instrument assembly. Drive interface apparatus may be disposed on a top surface of the instrument driver and on a bottom surface of the instrument assembly. The drive interface apparatus may transmit torque from the instrument driver to the instrument assembly. The input torque drives a pulley in the instrument assembly that operates one or more control wires to steer an elongate instrument of the instrument assembly for performing minimally invasive surgical procedures.
