ROBOTIC CATHETER ROTATABLE DEVICE CARTRIDGE

摘要

A robotic catheter rotatable device cartridge (700) may include a housing member attachable to a drive mechanism (312, 314) for rotating the cartridge (700) and a catheter (706) attached to the cartridge (700) along an axial direction of the catheter. A slider block (708, 710,) may be generally slidable relative to the housing and engaged with one or more steering wires (712, 714) for controlling movement of the catheter (706) in a transverse direction relative to the axial direction. The catheter may include the steering wire(s) engaged therewith and movable in the transverse direction when the slider block (708, 710) is linearly driven in a predetermined direction.
