New developments in the medical trade fair Medica in Dusseldorf
Doctors and medical technology companies have the ambition to race with death to win. One reason why two portable heart-lung machine to the world's largest medical trade fair Medica were presented, yesterday in Dusseldorf came to an end. Around 135 000 visitors, of whom 40 percent from abroad, informed in 4300 exhibitors on the latest medical developments.
If the heart and circulatory failure, it must proceed quickly - every minute, in the vital organs of a man with blood and oxygen supply, is one too many. All the more frightening it appears that the time lag between a heart attack and the beginning of treatment, according to the nationwide register of heart attack Mitraplus steadily increasing. The resulting fact that nearly 400 000 people in Germany a year after a cardio-circulatory failure die, has two companies moved to action. Their goal: a portable heart-lung machine to develop to the patient via needle can be connected.
The smaller, less than ten kilos of heavy equipment "Cardiohelp" the group Maquet was with great effort next to a rescue helicopter at the Medica presented, although it only in April 2009 on the market. Fixed-hand experience with a similar, already approved by TÜV machine, however, about nine kilos more weight than "Cardiohelp", the middle class medical technology company LifeBridge before.
Both systems want an easy-to-use addition to the usual heart-lung machines, with their approximately 100 kilos not from the halls of cardiac surgery centers can be moved out. "But not every hospital has such a focus," said Manfred salad, CEO of Life Medical Bridge, "only 79 of 470 cardiac locations are well prepared. We want the other with a better technique in the world." Six hours may be "Life Bridge" to supply the body with blood and oxygen take over - "Cardiohelp" even two weeks.
As the race against time in emergency clinics, intensive care units or on rescue missions will also always won - mobile devices, the patient from the outset when health support, were a great Medica trend: How can some heart rate or oxygen saturation of blood is now using a so-called telemetry monitor the company Draeger monitored, which is about as big as a paperback is. This monitor, the patients themselves, is wirelessly with a monitoring station in the room connected sister. For example, in Cologne St. Vincent Hospital, where the system has been tested for several months.
And so that athletes not only in the horizontal position will be new and special, breathable compression stockings prevent water in the legs einlagert. The company now offers Bauerfeind ambulance for a software retailer, which a three-dimensional picture of the legs, so the special stockings (the couple for 69 euros) also fit can be customized.
