Saranas SOS System Warns of Bleeding During Cath Lab Procedures
 While catheter-based interventional Procedures have major advantages, there’s always a chance that a vessel can get ruptured when introducing the sheath through which instruments are snaked to the treatment site. Undetected, this kind of Bleeding can have serious consequences for patients, sometimes even leading to death. A new device from Saranas, a Houston, Texas firm, may soon be commonplace in Cath labs for detecting Bleeding due to ruptured vessels. The Saranas Observer System (SOS) relies on a standard cardiac sheath that has a set of electrodes on its surface. The electrodes allow the System to measure the difference in the electrical resistance within the vessel. When there’s a rupture or dissection, the resistance readings are different and an alarm is sent to the physician performing the procedure. The company partnered with Cambridge Consultants, an industrial design firm, to turn the tech**logy into a real product. “Detecting a small bleed in an area where there is already a lot of blood is particularly challenging,” said John Ge**va, project director at Cambridge Consultants, in a statement. “Our extensive track record of medical product development convinced Saranas that we were the right choice to take on the challenge and make the concept a commercial reality. Our cutting-edge tech**logy development, coupled with our human factors and industrial design expertise, makes us a ‘one-stop shop’ for in**vative start-ups such as Saranas.” Tech**logy info page:*The Saranas System… Source: Cambridge Consultants… The post Saranas SOS System Warns of Bleeding During Cath Lab Procedures appeared first on Medgadget. ??????? ??????: Saranas SOS System Warns of Bleeding During Cath Lab Procedures || ??????: rss || ??????: اسم منتداك
