More Information
Summary:An apparatus for vascular access is described herein. The apparatus can comprise a cart movable from a first location to a second location near a patient, a manipulating device configured to releasably couple a cartridge including a needle, a catheter, and a guidewire that are coaxially disposed with respect to each other, and a robotic arm having a first end mounted to the cart and a second end coupled to the manipulating device. The manipulation device can include a plurality of actuation mechanisms configured to selectively advance the needle, the catheter, and the guidewire when the manipulating device is coupled to the cartridge. The robotic arm can include a plurality of joints that are configured to rotate about a plurality of axes to position the cartridge relative to the arm of the patient such that the needle, the catheter, and the guidewire can be inserted into a target vessel of the patient.
