Clot Burst Pressure (CBP) Measurement Device
Researchers from UTHealth designed a device for developing a clot burst pressure (CBP) which can be used for direct measurement of the pressure required to dislodge a clot. More particularly, this measurement can distinguish between thrombi of hypo- and hypercoagulable states by observing differences in the CBP of conditioned groups compared to control...

Cuff-less, Effortless Blind Insertion Airway Management Device with Mouthpiece Seal
Conventional airway management devices typically include an inflatable cuff that seals the tube within the trachea, while this inflated cuff design could place excessive pressure on the patient’s adjacent tissues and cause tissue damage. Although laryngeal mask airways (LMAs) can avoid potential damage to the trachea by providing a seal above...

Zeta Needle For Improved Maneuverability and Penetration
Limited tool reach and maneuverability in laparoscopic and endoscopic procedures can present short term difficulties during an operation, as well as long term ergonomic issues for the surgeon. A designer Zeta needle can bring fine 360 degree maneuverability and increased tissue penetration to such procedures. This is achieved using a needle that is...

"WAND-SEEKER" Chronic occlusion re-entry device
BackgroundIn the reverse CART technique, a catheter and a wire are positioned on opposite sides of the coronary occlusion. Through different manipulation of the catheter and the wire, the wire is, ultimately, aligned with the tip of the antegrade catheter, crosses the occluded coronary segment, and gets “externalized” converting a CTO in...
