Abstract
Purpose of review
Robotics has been used in multiple areas of procedural medical intervention. Robotic percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been available since 2004. Its adoption has been slow with initial application in simple cases.
Recent findings
With increasing adoption, robotic PCI has been applied to a broader variety of coronary substrates with demonstration of safety and efficacy. Improvements in the robotic console with future generation devices should add to the utility of this platform.
Summary
Robotic PCI advances the innovations in endovascular space into a different dimension, removing the dependence of the procedure on patient-operator ergonomics and likely operator skill.
