Definitions
- the invention relates to a medical device with an elongated device for at least partially importing into an organism.
- a device with an elongated device is to be understood as medical-technical instruments, such as a catheter, a catheter with a guide wire, a flexible endoscope, that is to say essentially instruments of minimally invasive surgery.
- Such a device comprises an elongated device with a small thickness in relation to the length, in particular a small diameter in relation to the length.
- One possible application of the device is to be able to display organs in an X-ray image with the addition of contrast media conveyed by the elongated device as a result of the absorption of X-rays.
- the elongated device can also be used for surgical operations on the beating heart, for dilating vessels or for an intervention on blood-carrying vessels in the brain.
- the elongated device In order to bring the elongated device to the desired location in the organism, it must be inserted into the respective organism at least partially via a natural or artificial body opening.
- the elongated device can have equipment for manipulating the respective vessel at its end facing the organism, or can be designed to inject certain fluids into the corresponding location in the organism.
- the placement, that is, insertion, of the elongated device onto the area to be examined or treated is carried out according to conventional practices by manually pushing the elongated device toward the treatment area.
- the advancement harbors a source of injuries to the vessels, vessel walls and tissues of the organism, particularly through the tip of the elongated device, namely when the advancement takes place in an uncontrolled manner and edges of the tip enter the tissue of the organism cut in mus.
- real-time X-ray contrast medium image recordings or video recordings can be used, for example, when examining venous or arterial blood vessels.
- the doctor uses his knowledge of the particular course of the vessel to be cathetized. Less experienced doctors cannot fall back on such a wealth of experience.
- the attending physician is assisted by the forces that can be felt on the actuating handle when manually pushing the elongated egg device onto the latter, which forces can tell the trained physician which course the vessel to be catheterized is taking.
- a medical device with a sensor is known from US Pat. No. 6,221,023, which can measure the forces occurring at the tip of the elongated device when it is introduced into the organism.
- the measurement results determined by the sensor are visually shown on a display.
- the operation of the instrument requires a high level of attention from the operator, who must constantly closely monitor the displayed measurement results.
- short shortcomings in concentration, eye fatigue, which is not uncommon when looking at the screen for a longer period of time, and brief wandering of the eyes from the screen can lead to decisive treatment errors by the doctor.
- US-6,096,004 discloses a minimally invasive surgical arrangement that enables remote actuation of the minimally invasive instrument.
- a main control device and a secondary control device are provided for this, the main control device electrically evaluating mechanically detected actuation movements of an operator and communicating them as electrical signals to the secondary control system by remote transmission.
- the secondary control system transmits the signals to an actuator, which manipulates an elongated device on the basis of the operating movements of the operator.
- the actuator of the secondary control system has sensors which can determine operating forces transmitted from the elongated device to the actuator.
- the main control device and the secondary control device located elsewhere by the main control device communicate via remote signal transmission and the operator cannot establish direct physical contact with the patient, the operating forces determined on the secondary control system are transmitted to another actuator connected to the main control system, which gives the operator a haptic impression of the Mediate operational forces of the instrument.
- the disadvantage of the local separation of operator and patient, if not eliminated, can be mitigated.
- the operator becomes a sum of forces; such as " the frictional forces, the elastic deformation forces and the collision forces that may occur, the tip of the instrument against a tissue obstacle.
- the forces on the actuating element are consequently filtered, or rather falsified, by a mechanical low-pass filter, the filter effect of which depends on the length of the miminal invasive instrument, depends on its mass, the friction on the vessel walls and many other parameters.
- the medical device according to the invention has an elongated device, such as a catheter or a flexible endoscope, which is provided with at least one sensor.
- the sensor on the elongate device detects a force or forces which, for example, attack or attack the regions of the elongate device to be turned towards the organism when the elongate device is pushed into the organism.
- the operator is immediately tactile informed whether, for example, an obstacle, such as a vasoconstriction, hinders further advancement of the elongated device, because the direct measurement of the intracorpuscular forces gives the operator direct information about the force conditions at the potential danger point of the elongated device Egg seal.

- the device according to the invention can prevent an operator from causing injury to vessels of the organism by undosed feed movements. Forces or moments that could injure vessel walls can be recognized very early, namely felt. Since the forces are detected intracorpuscularly in the device according to the invention, the disturbing factors, such as the friction and the elasticity of the elongated device, which falsify the force measurement results determined outside the body, can be largely eliminated.
