PURPOSE: Intracardiac transcatheter interventions allow for reducing trauma and hospitalization stays as compared to standard surgery. In the treatment of mitral regurgitation, the most widely adopted transcatheter approach consists in deploying a clip on the mitral valve leaflets by means of a catheter that is run through veins from a peripheral access to the left atrium. However, precise manipulation of the catheter from outside the body while copying with the path constraints imposed by the vessels remains challenging.
METHODS: We proposed a path tracking control framework that provides adequate motion commands to the robotic steerable catheter for autonomous navigation through vascular lumens. The proposed work implements a catheter kinematic model featuring nonholonomic constraints. Relying on the real-time measurements from an electromagnetic sensor and a fiber Bragg grating sensor, a two-level feedback controller was designed to control the catheter.
RESULTS: The proposed method was tested in a patient-specific vessel phantom. A median position error between the center line of the vessel and the catheter tip trajectory was found to be below 2 mm, with a maximum error below 3 mm. Statistical testing confirmed that the performance of the proposed method exhibited no significant difference in both free space and the contact region.
CONCLUSION: The preliminary in vitro studies presented in this paper showed promising accuracy in navigating the catheter within the vessel. The proposed approach enables autonomous control of a steerable catheter for transcatheter cardiology interventions without the request of calibrating the intuitive parameters or acquiring a training dataset.
