摘要:
A robotic module for driving an elongate flexible medical member includes: movable drive members alternately positioned in a drive configuration in which the drive members are sufficiently close together to be able to drive the elongate flexible medical member, and in a free configuration in which the drive members are sufficiently far apart so as to no longer be able to drive the elongate flexible medical member, a control member controlling movement of the movable drive members into the drive configuration in which the elongate flexible medical member is driven, and a reverse movement into the free configuration, a stress sensor measuring stress on at least one of the drive members, and a user interface linked to the stress sensor so as to receive the measured stress from the stress sensor and suitable for providing a signal representative of the measured stress to the user of the robotic module.
