SUCTION AND IRRIGATION CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

Systems and methods of in situ pressure control at an anatomical environment during a procedure are disclosed. An exemplary irrigation and suction system comprises a user input configured to receive from a user a desired pressure to be applied to the anatomical environment, or a desired flow condition corresponding to the desired pressure. The system comprises a pressure sensor to sense a pressure at or near the anatomical environment, and a control module to adjust one or more of an irrigation flow rate or a suction flow rate of at least one working channel of a medical device to maintain the pressure of the anatomical environment at substantially a level of the desired pressure, or to maintain the desired flow condition in the working channel during the procedure.
