We are Hansen Medical
Our Mission. Our Passion.
Hansen Medical, the global leader in flexible robotics, was born from the vision of creating a new generation of advanced medical robotics. A generation that would empower and protect physicians while providing enhanced care for patients. The Sensei® Robotic Catheter System and Artisan™ Control Catheter is the first realization of this vision.
We believe the next-generation robotic catheter system, Sensei X, overcomes the limitations of manual technique by facilitating accurate positioning, manipulation, and stable control of catheter and catheter-based technologies during electrophysiology (EP) procedures. The system provides Instinctive Motion™ control and navigation of flexible catheters, resulting in enhanced access, stability, and control in complex interventional procedures. The key is our proprietary Instinctive Motion™ technology that accurately and responsively translates the physician’s hand movements at the motion controller to the robotically controlled steerable catheter in the patient’s anatomy.
This unique combination of technology and ergonomics helps physicians to establish a new standard of care by enabling a new class of percutaneous procedures using advanced electromechanical technology–creating a solution that we believe benefits patients and physicians.
