Abstract:
Systems and methods for autonomous intravenous needle insertion are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a system for autonomous intravenous insertion include a robot arm, one or more sensors pivotally attached to the robot arm for gathering information about potential insertion sites in a subject arm, a medical device pivotally attached to the robot arm, and a controller in communication with the sensors and the robot arm, wherein the controller receives the information from the sensors about potential insertion sites, and the controller selects a target insertion site and directs the robot arm to insert the medical device into the target insertion site.

Claim (Index 14):
The system of  claim 13  wherein the controller is further programmed to autonomously process the information the insertion site from the one or more sensors, to autonomously calculate an insertion path of the end-effector into the blood vessel based on the information about the insertion site, and to autonomously direct the robotic positioning system to insert the end-effector along the insertion path into the blood vessel at the insertion site.
