Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of minimally invasive vascular interventional surgery, and more particularly to a convenient and sterilizable angiographic interventional surgery system. Background Art
[0002] Minimally invasive cardiovascular interventional therapy is a primary treatment for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Compared to traditional surgical procedures, it offers significant advantages, including smaller incisions and shorter postoperative recovery times. Cardiovascular interventional surgery involves a physician manually inserting devices such as catheters, guidewires, and stents into the patient's body to complete the treatment.
[0003] Interventional surgery presents two major challenges. First, during the procedure, DSA emits X-rays, which rapidly depletes the physician's strength, concentration, and stability. This can lead to reduced precision and potentially life-threatening accidents such as vascular intimal damage and perforation due to improper thrust. Second, the cumulative harm of long-term ionizing radiation exposure significantly increases the physician's risk of leukemia, cancer, and acute cataracts. The continuous accumulation of radiation exposure by physicians during interventional procedures has become a significant threat to their careers and a significant constraint on the development of interventional surgery.
[0004] Robotic technology can effectively address this issue, significantly improving the precision and stability of surgical procedures while also effectively reducing radiation exposure to interventional surgeons and lowering the risk of intraoperative accidents. Cardiovascular interventional surgery-assisted robots are attracting increasing attention and are becoming a key research and development area in the field of medical robotics.
[0005] There are several problems with guidewire and catheter replacement during interventional surgery: (1) The robot cannot be used to properly control the movement of the guidewire and catheter, especially after the catheter moves, the guidewire needs to be operated at the end of the catheter and follow the movement of the catheter; (2) Auxiliary fixation of the outer sheath cannot be achieved; (3) The device is large in size and complex in structure, and is not suitable for actual clinical surgery; (4) The system is inconvenient to install and disassemble; (5) The mechanical gripper part is large in size and inconvenient to use; (6) During surgery, the disinfection and cleaning of the robot is cumbersome; (7) Robotic surgery consumables are complex and expensive.
[0006] Therefore, how to provide a convenient and sterilizable angiographic interventional surgery system is an urgent problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The present invention aims to solve one of the above-mentioned technical problems in the prior art at least to a certain extent.
[0008] To this end, one purpose of the present invention is to provide a convenient and sterilizable angiographic interventional surgery system to first solve problems 1-4 existing in the background technology.

[0048] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a convenient and sterilizable angiographic interventional surgery system, which is used for the forward pushing and backward withdrawal of catheters and guidewires, as well as the rotation control of catheters and guidewires during vascular interventional surgery. Each robot can be automatically positioned and automatically return to its original position after the surgery is completed, which is convenient for clinical use. By operating outside the operating room, the doctor can control the robot's gripper to push and rotate the guidewire catheter into a specified position in the patient's body, avoiding the risk of X-ray injury to the doctor and completing the interventional surgery angiography process. The device is designed with a combination of four separate robots, which can achieve the same effect as the doctor's actual interventional surgery operation.
[0049] See attached Figure 1-3 , including: a pair of catheter front-end robots 105 and catheter back-end robots 102 that can be moved in the catheter room of the interventional surgery and can be arranged in pairs on both sides of the catheter bed 101, and a pair of guidewire front-end robots 104 and guidewire back-end robots 103;
[0050] The four robots are connected wirelessly and need to cooperate with each other to complete the entire angiography operation. The four robots differ primarily in their arm mechanisms, while the rest of their components are essentially the same. This modular design facilitates component application and replacement. Each robot includes a base 200, a torso and head mechanism 300, and an arm mechanism. The base 200, torso, and head mechanism 300 for each of the four robots are structurally identical. The base is used to move the robot, while the torso and head mechanism are primarily responsible for vertical movement and system identification. The arm mechanism is primarily used to extend and clamp the guidewire catheter.
[0051] The first arm devices corresponding to the catheter front-end robot 105 and the catheter back-end robot 102 cooperate with the clamping position at the outer sheath outlet, and the guidewire front-end robot 104 and the guidewire back-end robot 103 both have a second arm device and a third arm device. The two second arm devices cooperate with the clamping position of the Y valve 107 and keep the catheter 106 straightened into a straight line. The two third arm devices cooperate with clamping the guidewire 108, and the clamping position is the Y valve outlet; thereby, the movement of the guidewire and the catheter can be well controlled, especially after the catheter moves, the guidewire operates at the tail end of the catheter and follows the movement of the catheter; at the same time, auxiliary fixation of the outer sheath is achieved.
[0052] The position sensor provided on the guidewire front-end robot 104 or the guidewire back-end robot 103 is clamped on the guide rail of the catheter bed 101. The heads of the guidewire front-end robot 104 and the guidewire back-end robot 103 are provided with a first set of infrared positioning devices, and the heads of the catheter front-end robot 105 and the catheter back-end robot 102 are provided with a second set of infrared positioning devices for robot position alignment;
[0053] The doctor controls each robot in the control room.
[0054] See attached Figure 4 The first, second, and third arms each have a removable disposable consumable 500 located at the gripping position. Made of medical-grade PVC and sterilized with ethylene oxide, it's a disposable consumable for surgical use. It connects to the robot via a plug-in handle for easy installation and removal, while maintaining a low cost.
[0055] Advantageously, see Appendix Figure 12 In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the disposable consumable 500 includes a back plate 503, the front of which is used to stick a medical silicone pad 504, and the back of which has two elastic handles 502 extending backward in parallel, and the outer surfaces of the two handles 502 are provided with blocks 501 for plugging and unplugging with the clamping ends of each arm device. When in use, insert the disposable consumable into the clamping end of the arm device. After use, pinch the two handles with both hands to make the block 501 fall off the clamping end, and then push the disposable consumable out of the clamping end for unified recycling of the disposable consumable. The entire disposable consumable has a simple structure, is inexpensive, and is easy to use. Disposable surgical consumables are used on all four robots.
[0056] See attached Figure 10 and 11 , a catheter front-end robot arm device is used in conjunction with a catheter rear-end robot arm device. The two have the same structure but different installation positions. The two first arm devices corresponding to the catheter front-end robot 105 and the catheter back-end robot 102 have the same structure. Each first arm device includes a first extension plate 401. The components on the upper part of the first extension plate 401 corresponding to the two first arm devices are arranged in a mirror image. Each first extension plate 401 slides on the torso and head device 300 in a direction perpendicular to its length, and a first motor bracket 402 is fixed thereon. The first motor bracket 402 supports the first screw motor 403 perpendicular to the length direction of the first extension plate 401. A first linear guide 404 is provided on the first extension plate 401 parallel to the arrangement direction of the first screw motor 403. A first slider slides on the first linear guide 404. A first clamping member 409 is fixed to the top of the first slider. One end of the first clamping member 409 has a first threaded hole that cooperates with the first screw motor 403, and the other end extends out of the first extension plate 401 and bends downward to connect the disposable consumable 500.
[0057] The two catheter robots achieve the clamping action of the catheter by controlling the extension distance of the first extension plate 401, complete the rotation action of the catheter by adjusting the rising and falling height of each robot, and push the catheter forward or backward by the forward and reverse rotation of the first screw motor 403. The system can achieve simultaneous pushing and rotation actions. The basic operation action is to first clamp the catheter, then push the catheter forward, and after pushing about 2cm, control the robot to release the clamping of the catheter, control the first screw motor 403 to retreat 2cm, and then clamp the catheter again. When rotation is required, control the two robots to rub the catheter to achieve it. The entire surgical process is completed in a cycle.

[0074] By controlling the sixth lead screw motors 313 and 320 to move synchronously, the system can be controlled to be lifted and lowered.
[0075] The head device includes a turntable 303, the bottom of which rotates in the bearing hole, and a rotating shaft gear is fixed to the upward extending portion of its rotating shaft. The top of the head connecting plate 311 near the turntable 303 is connected to a rotating motor 317 via a rotating motor bracket 316. The output shaft of the rotating motor 317 is upward and connected to a motor gear that meshes with the rotating shaft gear; a touch screen 307 is connected to the turntable 303, and two sets of cameras 306 are fixed on both sides of the touch screen 307 via camera brackets 305; the rotating motor 317 is connected to the driving device 203;

An infrared positioning device 308 is fixed to the top of the touch screen 307 and connected to the host 205. The first and second infrared positioning devices are both infrared locators installed above the touch screen 307 and can emit infrared rays. Another wire guide robot at the same position can receive infrared rays. The two work together to determine whether the robot's positioning is accurate. If it is inaccurate, the robot needs to be adjusted.
[0077] The rotation motor 317 controls the horizontal rotation of the entire head unit, while the pitch motor 304 controls its vertical movement, allowing the entire head unit to move flexibly and enabling the robot to observe objects from various angles. The touch screen 307 facilitates human-machine interaction, allowing users to perform certain operations and displaying system information. The two cameras 306 serve as the robot's eyes, observing its surroundings and detecting distances. The resulting information is transmitted to the host computer 205 for analysis and processing.
[0078] The overall system of the present invention is primarily composed of four subsystem robots: a catheter front-end robot 105, a catheter back-end robot 102, a guidewire front-end robot 104, and a guidewire back-end robot 103. The entire device can operate within the catheter room of an interventional surgery, completing the control of the guidewire catheter during surgery. The four robots can move autonomously, and a camera installed in the head device can observe the surrounding environment. Through machine learning, they can become familiar with the environment within the operating room and can move more effectively. The four robots can communicate wirelessly with each other, allowing for coordinated operations.
[0079] At the beginning of the operation, the doctor first completed the preliminary preparations such as puncture, and then installed sterile consumables on the arm device of each robot, and then the four robots moved in accordance with Figure 1The doctor moves from the position shown in the figure to the designated position in sequence, with the catheter robot in front and the guidewire robot in the back, and they are respectively on both sides of the catheter bed 101. There are infrared positioning devices on the top of the catheter robot and the guidewire robot, and this device can be used to determine whether the two groups of robots are aligned. The doctor then controls the catheter robot to clamp the catheter, and the clamping position is the outlet of the outer sheath. The doctor controls the guidewire robot to clamp the Y-valve 107. When clamping the Y-valve, try to straighten the catheter 106 into a straight line. The guidewire robot is controlled to clamp the guidewire 108, and the clamping position is the outlet of the Y-valve. The position sensor on the guidewire robot is clamped to the guide rail of the catheter bed. After preparation is completed, the doctor goes to the control room to operate the robot to complete the operation.
[0080] When the catheter is moved forward or backward, the guidewire robot receives information about the distance traveled and automatically controls its wheels to move forward or backward an equal distance, ensuring that the guidewire robot and the end of the catheter remain relatively stationary. When the catheter bed moves, the positioning device on the guidewire robot detects the direction and distance of the bed's movement. This positional information is then transmitted to all robots, which then calculate and move their wheels, ensuring that all robots synchronize their movements with the bed, moving in the same direction and distance.
[0081] For example, as the catheter bed moves forward, the wheels of the guidewire robot and catheter robot rotate synchronously. As the catheter bed moves left and right, the arms of the guidewire robot and catheter robot extend and retract accordingly. As the catheter bed moves up and down, the arms of the guidewire robot and catheter robot raise and lower accordingly. The coordinated movements of the four robots ensure excellent control of the catheter guidewire during surgery, keeping the catheter in a straight line. The guidewire and catheter propulsion mechanisms work together to control the propulsion and rotation of the guidewire and catheter. After the surgery is complete, the sterile consumables are removed and recycled, and the four robots automatically move to a corner of the operating room, ensuring patient access and transfer.
[0082] The present invention solves the problems of doctors eating the wire in existing interventional surgeries, reduces the doctor's exposure to X-rays, affects the control of the guidewire after the catheter moves, is inconvenient to install and remove the equipment, is inconvenient to transfer the equipment, has no fixation of the outer sheath, the volume of the sterile box is too large, cannot measure the guidewire catheter pushing force, and cannot complete the robot's automatic positioning and homing.
[0083] The base of the present invention adopts a vehicle body structure, can be freely moved in the catheter room, and is suitable for the use environment of the catheter room. The base is designed with multiple groups of cameras to ensure the safety and accuracy of the vehicle body during movement.
[0084] The overall structure is simple, with good stability, modular structure design, easy assembly and disassembly, compact structure and small size, making it very suitable for surgical environments.
[0085] No robot installation is required, and the device can automatically position itself during surgery and automatically return to its original position after surgery. It does not come into contact with the catheter bed, thus avoiding damage to the bed.
[0086] The present invention is applicable to various catheters and guidewires, has strong versatility, and can adjust the clamping degree of the guidewire at any time to ensure that there is no slipping phenomenon, has strong feedback, and can ensure surgical safety.
[0087] The present invention adopts a disposable surgical consumable design, simplifies the disinfection process, and is convenient for clinical use. The surgical consumable has a simple structure, can be quickly installed and removed, has good stability, and is inexpensive.
[0088] This invention, along with in-depth machine learning, will allow robots to perform surgeries automatically.
