A system and method include operation of a device coupled to a base to hold a catheter to the base, the catheter defining a lumen in which a portion of an elongated medical device is disposed, and a portion of the catheter being disposed in a hemostasis valve, movement of the base relative to the hemostasis valve along a first path while the catheter is held to the base such that the catheter moves relative to the hemostasis valve, and operation of a mechanism coupled to the base to maintain a position of the elongated medical device within the lumen relative to the hemostasis valve while the base and the mechanism are moved along the first path and the catheter is held to the base.

Percutaneous device exchange

A robotic catheter system including a first drive mechanism configured to interact with an elongated medical device to cause the elongated medical device to move along its longitudinal axis. A controller provides a signal to a motor to move the first wiping surface toward the longitudinal axis when the elongated device is being withdrawn from a patient.
