Zusammenfassung:A device to inhibit entanglement of catheter cables comprises a slip ring or a combined slip ring and fluid rotary joint. The device can include a servomechanism configured to power rotation of at least one of the slip ring and the fluid rotary joint. A detangling device for a cable plug configured to connect to a catheter handle comprises an outer cylinder configured to rotate relative to an inner cylinder while electrical connections between the inner and outer cylinders remain intact. A free rotary irrigation channel for a catheter handle inhibits entanglement of irrigation tubing.
