A novel cardioport for beating-heart, image-guided intracardiac surgery.
OBJECTIVE Intracardiac beating-heart procedures require the introduction and exchange of complex instruments and devices. To prevent potential complications such as air embolism and bleeding, a universal cardioport was designed and tested. METHODS The design consists of a port body and a series of interchangeable sleeves. The port uses a fluid purging system to remove air from the instrument ...
متن کاملRobotic Motion Compensation for Beating Heart Intracardiac Surgery
3D ultrasound imaging has enabled minimally invasive, beating heart intracardiac procedures. However, rapid heart motion poses a serious challenge to the surgeon that is compounded by significant time delays and noise in 3D ultrasound. This paper investigates the concept of using a one-degree-of-freedom motion compensation system to synchronize with tissue motions that may be approximated by 1D...
متن کاملRobotic Force Stabilization for Beating Heart Intracardiac Surgery
The manipulation of fast moving, delicate tissues in beating heart procedures presents a considerable challenge to surgeons. We present a new robotic force stabilization system that assists surgeons by maintaining a constant contact force with the beating heart. The system incorporates a novel, miniature uniaxial force sensor that is mounted to surgical instrumentation to measure contact forces...
متن کاملFixing the Beating Heart: Ultrasound Guidance for Robotic Intracardiac Surgery
To treat defects within the heart, surgeons currently use stoppedheart techniques. These procedures are highly invasive and incur a significant risk of neurological impairment. We are developing methods for performing surgery within the heart while it is beating. New real-time 3-D ultrasound imaging allows visualization through the opaque blood pool, but this imaging modality poses difficult im...
متن کاملStereoscopic vision display technology in real-time three-dimensional echocardiography-guided intracardiac beating-heart surgery.
OBJECTIVE Stereoscopic vision display technology has been shown to be a useful tool in image-guided surgical interventions. However, the concept has not been applied to 3-dimensional echocardiography-guided cardiac procedures. We evaluated stereoscopic vision display as an aid for intracardiac navigation during 3-dimensional echocardiography-guided beating-heart surgery in a model of atrial sep...
