SeptalPro: Development and Usability Evaluation of a Force-Sensing Robotic Transseptal Puncture System for Cardiac Interventions
This work establishes the first comprehensive framework for evaluating robotic TSP systems through integration of high-precision force sensing, clinically-validated performance metrics, and structured assessment protocols, providing essential foundations towards clinical translation of robotic assistance in TSP procedures.
