摘要:
The present invention concerns an implantable device to treat obesity and method using the same. Said device (31) is able to create a repetitive mechanical constraint on a gastrointestinal organ wall and comprises: - an energy source (36), - a mechanical stimulation means (35).
摘要:
The present invention concerns fluorescent polymeric coating films visible in near-infrared light for coating a medical device, and a method for preparing said NIR visible polymeric coating films.
摘要:
The invention relates to a surgical staple having two movable arms (1, 2) connected by a transverse connection area (3). Each one of said arms (1, 2) has a pinching area (15, 25) and a fastening end (11, 21) and is characterised in that said transverse connection area (3) is deformable to allow said movable arms (1, 2) to be moved together by bending around the axis of said transverse connection area (3).
摘要:
This invention concerns a method for automatically detecting a clinically relevant leak and/or inadequate closure following a medical procedure, in a hollow organ (2) residing in the interior volume (4') of a body cavity (4). Wherein said test method comprises the steps of: injecting, via adapted injection means (3) a specific test gas or a gas mixture containing at least one test gas, into said organ(s) (2), analyzing the gas mixture and measuring the concentration of test gas in the interior volume (4') of the body cavity (4) via adapted detection means (5) and at least during a measurement window, evaluating the likelihood of the presence of a leak and its degree of severity, by comparing stored data and realtime data with each other, said test method being characterized in that the pressure difference between the interior of the hollow organ(s) (2) and the interior volume (4') of the body cavity (4) is controlled or mastered at least at a given moment during at least one measurement window, and preferably maintained constant during said window.
摘要:
The invention relates to an endoscopic surgery system consisting of a plurality of staples and an endoscopic applicator comprising a staple cartridge for loading transversely arranged staples. Said staples have a central region and two side limbs and the applicator has a mobile body comprising a means for holding a staple to be applied, said staple being arranged in a transverse plane, and for ensuring the deformation of same by bending in relation to the axis of symmetry of said staple.
