Description

[0002] Among interventional treatment technologies, vascular interventional treatment is the sub-sector with the highest technical requirements and entry barriers, and the related consumables used account for a relatively high proportion of high-value consumables. One of the indispensable and high-value consumables is the vascular intervention catheter. However, the vascular pathways in the human body often have individual differences due to the human body. A catheter with a single angle cannot match each person's vascular structure. If the angle of the catheter cannot match the human vascular structure, it will inevitably affect its delivery and positioning during surgery, thereby greatly increasing the difficulty of operation and the risk of surgical complications. However, the existing adjustable curved sheath handle usually manually controls the delivery system to complete the interventional surgery, which is greatly affected by the operator's skills and experience, and the accuracy of surgical control is difficult to guarantee. In addition, in traditional interventional surgery, the operator will be exposed to X-ray radiation for a long time, which affects the operator's health. Utility Model Content
