  • Patent number: 8764766
    Abstract: There is provided an insertion device allowing a doctor to alone perform an operation to insert a medical linear body. The insertion device, operated to insert a delivery wire (104) into a human body (131) through a blood vessel (132), includes a foot switch (41, 46) generating and outputting a signal to control starting/stopping a drive device (1) moving the delivery wire (104) in its longitudinal direction. Furthermore, the insertion device includes an insertion force sensor (60) operative to measure longitudinally compressive force exerted to the delivery wire (104), and a speaker (92) and a display (93) informing an operator of the compressive force measured by the insertion force sensor (60).
