Information About Radiology
Category Laboratory Coagulation Typical Use Measure clotting times and coagulation factor activity for hemostasis assessment. Description A benchtop instrument that performs assays such as PT INR, aPTT, fibrinogen, and D dimer using optical or mechanical detection methods to evaluate coagulation status for bleeding disorders, anticoagulation monitoring, and perioperative assessment. Automated analyzers provide standardized reagents, calibration, … Read more
Category Neurosurgery Interventional Typical Use Obtain targeted intracranial tissue samples with image guided precision. Description A specialized biopsy instrument used with stereotactic frames or frameless navigation systems to obtain core tissue samples from intracranial lesions with submillimeter accuracy under CT or MRI guidance, enabling histopathologic diagnosis while minimizing damage to surrounding brain tissue. Stereotactic biopsy … Read more
Category Endoscopy Therapeutic Typical Use Achieve mechanical hemostasis or tissue approximation during endoscopic procedures. Description Small metallic or polymer clips deployed through endoscopes to clamp bleeding vessels, close mucosal defects, or mark lesions for future localization, providing rapid mechanical control of gastrointestinal bleeding and facilitating minimally invasive management of perforations or postpolypectomy defects. Clip selection, … Read more
Category Wound Care Typical Use Deliver negative pressure wound therapy in outpatient or home settings. Description A compact, battery powered pump and dressing system that applies controlled subatmospheric pressure to a sealed wound dressing to promote granulation tissue formation, reduce edema, and remove exudate, enabling ambulatory management of complex wounds with improved mobility and convenience. … Read more
Category Regional Analgesia Typical Use Provide continuous peripheral nerve block for postoperative analgesia. Description A small catheter placed adjacent to a peripheral nerve under ultrasound guidance to deliver continuous local anesthetic infusion for prolonged analgesia after orthopedic or thoracic surgery, improving pain control and facilitating rehabilitation while requiring catheter care and monitoring for motor blockade.
Category Transport Neonatology Typical Use Maintain thermoregulation and monitoring during neonatal and infant transport. Description A portable incubator with integrated ventilator, monitoring, and power systems that secures and supports critically ill neonates during interfacility transfer while preserving thermal stability and life support capabilities.
Category Neonatology Phlebotomy Typical Use Obtain capillary blood samples from neonates for metabolic and screening tests. Description A sterile, single use lancet designed to perform controlled heel punctures to collect small volume blood samples for newborn screening, blood glucose, and point of care testing, minimizing tissue trauma and infection risk when used with proper technique … Read more
Category Orthopedic Implantation Typical Use Prepare and deliver polymethylmethacrylate cement for implant fixation. Description A closed mixing and delivery system that homogenizes bone cement powder and liquid monomer under vacuum to reduce porosity and then delivers the cement through a gun or pressurized system for implant fixation in arthroplasty or vertebroplasty procedures. Proper mixing technique, … Read more
Category Implantable Device Typical Use Provide electrical pacing for bradyarrhythmias. Description An implantable device with leads placed in the heart that senses intrinsic cardiac activity and delivers electrical impulses to maintain adequate heart rate and rhythm in patients with symptomatic bradycardia, heart block, or certain conduction disorders. Pacemaker programming is individualized to patient needs and … Read more
Category Perioperative Transfusion Typical Use Warm blood products inline during rapid transfusion to prevent hypothermia. Description A compact heating device integrated into the transfusion line that warms packed red blood cells and other blood products to near body temperature during rapid or massive transfusion, reducing the risk of hypothermia related coagulopathy and cardiac complications. Inline … Read more
