STERILE BARRIER SYSTEM FOR ARTICULATING ROBOTIC INTRODUCER SYSTEM ASSEMBLY

A system for performing a medical procedure comprises a robotic introducer assembly including: a base unit, the base unit including a proximal base portion and a base extension extending from the proximal base portion; and a probe assembly operably and removably coupled to the base unit. The probe assembly includes an articulating probe. The base unit is constructed and arranged to control a movement of the articulating probe. The system further comprises a sterile barrier system positioned over at least a portion of the robotic introducer assembly, the sterile barrier system providing isolation between any non-sterile portion of the robotic introducer assembly and the sterile field or any sterile operators (e.g. to prevent exposure of any non-sterile portion to the sterile field and/or sterile operators). The sterile barrier system comprises a sterile frame having a first end coupled to a distal portion of the robotic introducer assembly and a second end coupled to a portion of the robotic introducer assembly proximal to a distal portion of the base unit. A sterile drape extends from the sterile frame and constructed and arranged for positioning about the base unit.
