Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 12:
13. A catheter procedure system, comprising:
a bedside system comprising:
a percutaneous device actuating mechanism including an axial movement actuator configured to move a percutaneous device along a longitudinal axis of a percutaneous device and a rotation actuator configured to rotate the percutaneous device about the longitudinal axis of the percutaneous device; and

a remote workstation, the remote workstation comprising:
a first user interface configured to receive a first user input and a second user input separate for the first user input;
a control system operatively coupled to the user interface and to the bedside system, the control system configured to remotely and independently control movement of the percutaneous device; and
a device movement algorithm subsystem including a first set of instructions and at least a second set of instructions;

wherein the control system controls the percutaneous device based upon both the first user input causing advancement or retraction of the percutaneous device and at least one of the sets of instructions of the device movement algorithm subsystem operatively selected with the second user input causing an automatic non-zero rotation of the percutaneous device at a specified rate only as the percutaneous device is advanced or retracted in response to the first user input,
wherein the rate of rotation is a set rate, and wherein the set rate is a set degrees of rotation per unit of time of axial travel.
