The necessary duties can be carried out remotely by a medical telerobotic system, which also benefits from the advantages that medical robots already have.
In a telerobotic system, the master console commands the slave robot’s position and speed and receives potential haptic and visual feedback signals in addition to information on the slave robot’s status.
Telerobotic devices are often created for settings or circumstances where human labor would be excessively risky, uncomfortable, constrained, repetitious, or expensive. Here is a list of a few uses: Inspection, maintenance, building, mining, exploration, search and rescue, science, and surveying can all be done underwater.
Tele robotics, a crucial component of the greater area of telemedicine, simplifies, lowers the cost, and increases the convenience of procedures including surgeries, treatments, and diagnosis. Usually, this is done using short- or long-distance wired or wireless communication networks.
The Global Medical telerobotic system market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
TECH Briefs The robotic device, whose motion is controlled by magnets, is intended to remotely help in endovascular intervention, a treatment used to treat strokes brought on by blood clots in emergency cases.
Such procedures often include a surgeon manually guiding a small wire to the clot where it can physically eliminate the blockage or deliver medications to break it up.
One drawback of such procedures is accessibility: Neurovascular surgeons are frequently based at large medical centers that are challenging to reach for patients in remote areas, especially during the “golden hour the crucial window of time following a stroke when treatment should be given to reduce any damage to the brain.
A robotic arm of medical-grade is part of the system, and a magnet is fastened to its wrist. An operator can manipulate the arm and change the magnet’s direction using a joystick and live imaging in order to guide a soft, thin magnetic wire through arteries and veins.
The technique was demonstrated by the researchers using a transparent model called a “phantom,” which had vessels that replicated the intricate brain arteries. Neurosurgeons were able to remotely manipulate the robot’s arm after just one hour of training in order to direct a wire through a network of vessels to certain areas in the model.
