Telerobotic Transcatheter Delivery System for Mitral Valve Implant.

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common type of valvular heart disease, affecting over 2% of the world population, and the gold-standard treatment is surgical mitral valve repair/replacement. Compared to open-heart surgeries, minimally invasive surgeries (MIS) using transcatheter approaches have become popular because of their notable benefits such as less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stay, and faster recovery time. However, commercially available catheters are manually actuated, causing over-exposure of clinical staff to radiation and increased risk of human error during medical interventions.
