Development of a Smart Spinal Epidural Needle Based on Load Cell Sensors

In this article, we have developed a high-accuracy and low-cost smart epidural needle system. It is based on force puncture sensing and guidance mechanism that enhances success rate and reduces the risks of accidental punctures. The design incorporates a subminiature load cell embedded in the spinal...
