Abstract
A robotic catheter procedure system for performing a procedure including a bedside system and a remote workstation is provided. The bedside system includes a first percutaneous device and a second percutaneous device. The bedside system also includes a first actuating mechanism configured to engage and to impart movement to the first percutaneous device and a second actuating mechanism configured to engage and to impart movement to the second percutaneous device. The remote workstation includes a user interface and a control system operatively coupled to the user interface and to the bedside system. The control system controlling the first actuating mechanism to cause movement of the first percutaneous device to create a bore through the lesion and the second actuating mechanism to cause movement of the second percutaneous device through the bore created by the first percutaneous device.
