A Sensorized Needle-Insertion Device for Characterizing Percutaneous Thoracic Tool-Tissue Interactions
Serious complications during chest tube insertion are relatively rare, but can have catastrophic repercussions. We propose semi-automating tool insertion to help protect against non-target tissue puncture, and report first steps collecting and characterizing needle-tissue interaction forces in a tissue phantom used for chest tube insertion training.
