2. Targeted temperature management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Targeted_temperature...

   Catheters reduce temperature at rates ranging from 1.5 to 2 °C (2.7 to 3.6 °F) per hour. Through the use of the control unit, catheters can bring body temperature to within 0.1 °C (0.18 °F) of the target level. Furthermore, catheters can raise temperature at a steady rate, which helps to avoid harmful rises in intracranial pressure.

3. Hemodialysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemodialysis

   Hemodialysis. Hemodialysis, also spelled haemodialysis, or simply dialysis, is a process of filtering the blood of a person whose kidneys are not working normally. This type of dialysis achieves the extracorporeal removal of waste products such as creatinine and urea and free water from the blood when the kidneys are in a state of kidney ...

4. Foley catheter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foley_catheter

   Foley catheter. In urology, a Foley catheter is one of many types of urinary catheters (UC). The Foley UC was named after Frederic Foley, who produced the original design in 1929. Foleys are indwelling UC, often referred to as an IDCs (sometimes IDUCs). This differs from in/out catheters (with only a single tube and no valves, designed to go ...

   Manufactured by Hansen Medical, Sensei X is a specialized robotic catheter system that is controlled by a physician and is designed for accurate positioning, manipulation and stable control of catheter and catheter-based technologies during cardiovascular procedures. The Sensei system obtained U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance ...

6. Pulmonary artery catheter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_artery_catheter

   A pulmonary artery catheter ( PAC ), also known as a Swan-Ganz catheter or right heart catheter, is a balloon-tipped catheter that is inserted into a pulmonary artery in a procedure known as pulmonary artery catheterization or right heart catheterization. [1] [2] Pulmonary artery catheterization is a useful measure of the overall function of ...

7. Drug-eluting stent - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug-eluting_stent

   Drug-eluting stent An example of a drug-eluting stent. This is the TAXUS Express 2 Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent System, which releases paclitaxel. The system consists of a catheter delivery element, an inflation system, and the drug-eluting stent itself. They are marketed as one integrated system. ICD-9-CM 00.55 MeSH D054855 [edit on Wikidata] A drug-eluting stent (DES) is a tube made of ...

8. Coronary catheterization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_catheterization

   By changing the diagnostic catheter to a guiding catheter, physicians can also pass a variety of instruments through the catheter and into the artery to a lesion site. The most commonly used are 0.014-inch-diameter (0.36 mm) guide wires and the balloon dilation catheters.

9. Instrumentation and control engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation_and...

   Instrumentation and control engineering (ICE) is a branch of engineering that studies the measurement and control of process variables, and the design and implementation of systems that incorporate them. Process variables include pressure, temperature, humidity, flow, pH, force and speed. ICE combines two branches of engineering.
