Subjects

Abstract

With the reuse of costly devices offering significant cost savings to healthcare providers while reducing environmental impacts, reprocessing options for cardiovascular devices are expanding to include devices initially limited to single-use applications, observes GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company. Due to the risk of contamination, device reprocessing is subject to strict regulation in most regions. In the US, the FDA selects which single-use devices are eligible for reprocessing based on the device's design and overall risk. Third-party device reprocessors, like NEScientific and Innovative Health, are subject to the same regulations as original equipment manufacturers, and must obtain FDA 510(k) clearances for devices they include in their portfolio. Collaboration between device manufacturers, reprocessors, and regulatory bodies is needed to further enable device reuse. Professional reprocessing companies are continuously improving their capabilities to service more complex devices. A prime example of this came from device reprocessor Innovative Health, as the company announced that it had received clearance to reprocess the market leading Philips Eagle Eye Platinum Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) catheter. According to GlobalData, IVUS catheter sales in the US amounted to over $315 M in 2021, with individual catheters averaging nearly $750/unit. Opportunities to reduce repurchasing of these advanced devices could help to keep the technology accessible to patients.

Abstract

Lumped-parameter time-varying electrical circuit analogs for the cardiovascular system are frequently used in medical research and teaching for simulating and analyzing hemodynamic data. Pulsatile models provide details of the intracycle dynamics of each heart beat. In some settings, however, such as when tracking a hospital patient's hemodynamic state over time, it is more useful to dynamically track the beat-to-beat or intercycle dynamics. Rather than introducing heuristic averaging during the model-building step, as is done in existing nonpuisatile models, we apply a short-term, cycle-averaging operation to the differential equations of the underlying pulsatile model to obtain cycle-averaged models. The cycle-averaging method preserves the dependence of the output variables on the model parameters. In this paper, we apply cycle averaging to a simple pulsatile cardiovascular model to derive a cyclelaveraged model for cardiovascular dynamics. The resultant model captures the intercycle dynamics with relatively small approximation errors for a large range of perturbations in important system parameters. Index Terms--Cardiovascular dynamics, cycle-averaged models, cycle averaging, nonpulsatile models, patient monitoring, pulsatile models.

Abstract

Byline: Marc Chopplet, Jean-Pierre Theirry This paper examines the criteria governing the choice of materials for making prostheses - not only those used in orthopaedics but also those used for the cardiovascular system, intra-ocular devices, and pumps such as those used for the periodic release of insulin. In many cases aesthetic considerations are important; a prosthesis should be acceptable to the host and to those around him. It must be comfortable and biocompatible, not harming the host. It must be mechanically adequate for the purpose and have good wear and corrosion resistance, so that it can be left in place for many years. Examples are given of how new 'biomaterials' are being developed and predictions are made of the directions that research is likely to take in the future.

Abstract

Byline: H. Zheng, K.Y. Zhu Postoperative hypertension is commonly found in cardiac patients, and untreated hypertension patients may develop severe complications. This paper presents a gain-scheduling control system for postoperative blood pressure management. The system is based on a controller bank designed a priori using multiple-model control. A tuning method, which can effectively select a suitable control output, is then adopted. Each controller in the controller bank is a non-linear Proportional-Integral (PI) controller. The proportional and integral gains of the controller are updated using the error and the change of the plant, so that a wide range of parameter changes and non-linearities of the plant can also be handled. In simulation study, a non-linear pulsatile-flow model is used. This model can accurately describe the patient's plant. The simulation results show that the proposed gain-scheduling control system can effectively handle the changes in the patient's dynamics and provide satisfactory control performance.

Abstract

Researchers working on treatment for acute ischemic stroke have expressed concern that the regulatory and reimbursement environment is frustrating their efforts. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has created unequal approval thresholds for new devices over new drugs and when the approval of the device gets linked to reimbursement, it becomes a financial disincentive.
