CA 2505773

There is provided a minimally-invasive smart device which can detect environmental conditions in the vicinity of a target site within a patient's body and autonomously determine whether the medical device on the distal end of the instrument should be activated to perform, or inhibited from performing, a desired minimally-invasive medical procedure. The smart device includes a medical device affixed to the distal end of a lumen, at least one environmental condition sensor adapted to detect an environmental condition adjacent to the medical device, and at least one medical device actuator which responds to signals from an environmental condition sensor to either cause the medical device to perform the desired medical procedure or to inhibit operation of the medical device actuator.

La présente invention a trait à un dispositif intelligent à invasion minimale apte à la détection de conditions environnementales dans le voisinage d'un site cible dans le corps d'un patient et la détermination autonome de l'exécution ou non par le dispositif se trouvant sur l'extrémité distale de l'instrument d'une opération médicale à invasion minimale souhaitée. Le dispositif intelligent comporte un dispositif médical fixé à l'extrémité distale d'une lumière, au moins un capteur de conditions environnementales apte à la détection d'une condition environnementale adjacente au dispositif médical, et au moins un actionneur du dispositif médical qui est sensible aux signaux en provenance d'un capteur de conditions environnementales pour activer l'actionneur du dispositif médical en vue de l'exécution par le dispositif médical de l'opération médicale souhaitée ou pour inhiber le fonctionnement du dispositif médical.
