Needle Force Sensor, Robust and Sensitive Detection of the Instant of Needle Puncture
نویسندگان
چکیده
A force sensor based method to detect the instant of needle puncture to the layers of tissues is proposed. A set of needle and sheath attached to a pair of coaxial force sensors was used to separately measure the cutting force at the needle tip and the sidewall friction. Change of the force profile was observed and marked at the instant of the puncture, and robustly eliminated artifacts caused by body motion such as the respiratory or cardiac motion. The agreement between the subjective feeling of a skilled surgeon and the sensor was good. In several cases the sensor detected the puncture even when the surgeon could not clearly identify it. It was suggested that the sensor is potentially more sensitive than skilled professionals.

Needle Tumor Puncture Detection Using a Force and Position Sensor
Preforming a tumor ablation procedure involves precisely positioning an ablation probe in a tumor. Limited sensing accuracy and variations in tissue properties require that surgeons often identify when they have correctly positioned the probe through their sense of touch. In this paper, supervised learning is used to detect the point at which a needle has entered a tumor using a combination of ...
متن کاملPost spinal puncture headache, an old problem and new concepts: review of articles about predisposing factors
Post spinal puncture headache (PSPH) is a well known complication of spinal anesthesia. It occurs after spinal anesthesia induction due to dural and arachnoid puncture and has a significant effect on the patient’s postoperative well being. This manuscript is based on an observational study that runs on Babol University of Medical Sciences and review of literatures about current concepts about t...
